(V): That's laughable. Show your source with proper references or I say you are lying.

As for the "N" word, there was NO REASON to remove it other than to keep the wild bunch from getting their undies all in knots. Clearly the context matters.

I'm not here to coddle to your false sensitivities. What a joke.

You forget not all of us are Americans.. not all of us are liberals. There are certain words that you don't use... or at the least *****

It's called respect.

Subject: The "N" word.
Some people complained about my use of the "n" word when quoting that racist president LBJ. I find it interesting that they find it offensive that I would post that word, but that they are NOT offended by those who actually use that word. Instead, what we see here is the usual liberal approach when confronted with their own sinful history and despicable past - either change the subject, shoot the messenger, or simply make excuses.

This tactic well-defines those in on the liberal side of politics. They don't believe in personal accountability or personal responsibility. They make excuses, or obfuscate the facts.

Liberals would do well to recognize the serious flaws in their party, both its history and its present form. But they won't. They will continue to ignore facts or alter them, project their flaws onto others, make phony accusations, or tell outright lies. And if the past tells us anything, the liberals will go out of their way to vilify the opposition, all the while promoting policies that actually hurt those they claim to be helping. It's a sad state they are in and is only made worse because they can't see what's right before their very eyes. Blinded by ideology.

And when the civil rights bill was passed, I read that those who were racist moved to the Republican party.. A complete switch over.

Are there those in the Democratic party who are still racist... yes.. are there those in the Republican party who are racist.. yes. It's too close to the events of change for any party to say "we have eradicated racism from our ranks"..

Also.. It seems that as a recoil of the civil rights bill and other matters of the time the Republican element have done their best to blame everything on the federal government and when in power have scuppered federal depts in order to prove themselves right.

..... those on the far right need to understand that the destruction of the USA is not through socialism, but through their want of the USA as a country failing to prove themselves right. I find this a selfish attitude.

Subject: Not so long ago...
As the result of liberal historical revisionism, few Americans realize that Democrats ruled the segregated South until the 1960s. Democrats were the party of Jim Crow and Bull Connor. Senate Democrats, including former Ku Klux Klan recruiter Robert Byrd and Bill Clinton mentor William Fulbright and Al Gore, Sr. filibustered the 1964 Civil Rights Act. The stalemate was broken by Senate Republicans ensuring passage of the bill.

Who was wowed by Obama's oratorical gifts and believed that the country was ready to embrace a black presidential candidate, especially one such as Obama -- a 'light-skinned' African American 'with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one,' as he said privately."

Subject: Re: And
GTCharlie: Exactly right. The left found Byrd useful and Byrd found changing his outward ways useful. The country was changing and if he wanted to survive politically, he'd have to change too. There is nothing noble about that.

Clearly, the Left would NOT whitewash this man's history if he were a Republican.

Subject: And
Even after his resignation from the Klan, Byrd continued to hold it in high esteem, writing to the Klan's Imperial Wizard in 1946: "The Klan is needed today as never before and I am anxious to see its rebirth here in West Virginia."

And Byrd was old enough to have participated in filibustering the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as well as to have voted against it after cloture along with 18 other Democrats -- in the name of the Constitution, of course.

"I shall never fight in the armed forces with a Negro by my side… Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds" ---Senator Robert Byrd --- (D-WV)

Tuesday: My goodness, you sure are very forgiving,He was raised by his Aunt and Uncle.. and he was college educated. He was a racist, bigot and probably bordered on what today is criminal activity. spreading hate and racial bias...condemn him for ever no... but elect him time and time again? Today he would be prosecuted. he came to his senses when he realized his views were not popular and wouldn't get him elected

Some sins aren't so easily "sorried": away. The Klan did a lot of damage especially when Byrd was a member AND recruiter.I'm not black and I never did a survey but to many blacks , slavery and the Klan are on par with Nazis, I would say its safe to say. How could Byrd undo or make up for his part? Same for Ted Kennedy, (for his own little episode at Chappaquiddick) sorry,but great men they are not

Who was it that was standing in the school house door preventing black from attending a public school. Yeah, a democratic leader.

History reveals that it was Democratic Attorney General, Robert Kennedy that approved the secret wire taps on Dr, Martin Luther King Jr., and it was Democratic President Lyndon Johnson that referred to Dr. King as " that N preacher." Senator Byrd referred to Dr. King as a "trouble maker" who causes trouble and then runs like a "coward," when trouble breaks out.

And these days the left plays the race card all day long. Against Obamacare? You're a racist. Don't like Obama as president? That's because you're a racist. Jesse Jackson - a racist as is Al Sharpton.

Are you for affirmative action? You're for race discrimination. All the entitlement policies can be traced largely to the Democrats. They are bribing the people with their own money.

A lot has changed since 1830 but then again, a lot has stayed the same.
