peg, What claims are you talking about? Joe McCarthy, was condemned by every decent politician in the country, Republican and Democrat. Do you doubt that President Eisenhower didn't regret not supporting General Marshall?
Too bad you didn't take my high school American history course.
If the high school American history course you taught distorted history as much as the Lincoln Project propagandizing Joe Biden does, it must have been leaked by the Ministry of Truth that Orwell describes in his novel 1984.
You keep writing the same partisan propaganda that you used to respond to the article I wrote entitled: Nazism and the racism of the Democratic Party, when you wrote the following: Alber, the Republican Party and the Democrats switched positions on race between 1950- 1970.
Then you received such an overwhelming response that it silenced you, as you did not give any response to what was explained to you in great detail. You spit out your poison and crawled into your hole.
At that time I told you: Seth, LogicallyRight and Kickaha have blown away your comment loaded with partisan propaganda, totally unreal, but I told you much more; and I'll copy it to you to see if I can get you to answer this time.
Saltwind. In your comments on other occasions you said that you had taught US History for over 30 years and that you were in Vietnam; so I guess you are in your seventies. If so, you are a traditional of the silent generation, just like me; but I estimate that I am somewhat older than you.
I don't know if you now work for the Ministry of Truth described by George Orwell in his novel 1984 or if you are very influenced by the news media, which each day get closer to what is described in that book, arranging the story at the convenience of each moment , thus turning the lie into truth and vice versa. ---Seth has given you a very appropriate answer, but you must know that you do not adjust yourself to the truth, because over the years they have turned the lie into truth and vice versa. --- I'll answer you with what Carol Swain, Professor of Political Science and Law at Prager University in Vanderbilt (who is an African-American woman to respect), writes in her article: The Uncomfortable Truth about the Democratic Party, just in that part of which you have referenced.----- According to Swain: The Klan was a military force serving the interests of the Democratic Party. President Woodrow Wilson, a Democrat, shared many views with the Klan. He re-segregated many federal agencies and even screened the first movie ever seen in the White House: the racist movie "The Birth of a Nation," originally titled "The Clansman." A few decades later, the only serious Congressional opposition to the historic Civil Rights Act of 1964 came from Democrats. Eighty percent of Republicans in Congress supported the bill. Less than 70 percent of Democrats did. Democratic senators leaked the bill for 75 days, until Republicans mustered the few additional votes needed to break the deadlock. And when all their efforts to enslave blacks, keep them enslaved, and then stop them from voting had failed, Democrats came up with a new strategy: If blacks are going to vote, they could vote Democrats too. As President Lyndon Johnson was said to have said about the Civil Rights Act, "I'll have them n ***** s voting Democrat for two hundred years." So now, the Democratic Party thrives on votes. From the very people he has spent much of his history oppressing. Democrats falsely claim that the Republican Party is the villain, when in fact it is the failed policies of the Democratic Party that have kept blacks at bay. Welfare The massive government has decimated the black family. Opposition to the school choice has kept them trapped in failing schools. Politically correct policing has left black neighborhoods defenseless against violent crime. So when you think about racial equality and civil rights, which political party should come to mind?
I can tell you much more, if you were in the Armed Forces in 1950s or 1960s, you know that Eisenhower integrated minorities into them and had the Civil Rights Act of 1957 passed and one of the main opponents before that date was none other than Lyndon Jonhson , the then Senate Democratic Majority Leader. For a hundred years after 1865, Democrats opposed racial integration. Until Lyndon B. Johnson understood that it was convenient to act differently and said, "These black people, they are getting very optimistic these days and that is a problem for us since they now have something that they never had before, the political momentum to back up their optimism. Now we have to do something about it, we have to give them something, enough to calm them, not enough to make a difference. " ----------- The following can be read in Ronald Kessler's book "Inside the White House" on page 33: During a trip [on the Air Force One plane], Johnson was arguing his proposed civil rights law with two governors. In explaining why it was so important to him, he said it was simple: "I will make black people vote for the Democrats for two hundred years" (Quote by Carol Swain textilely in the foregoing). "That was the reason he pushed the bill," said McMillan, who was present during the conversation. “Not because he wanted equality for everyone. It was strictly a political ploy by the Democratic Party. It was false from the beginning. ”--- In our days it is the same with the current leaders of that party. Their attitudes are just a ploy to win the vote of African-Americans. Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and other Democratic politicians can be seen kneeling to pray for George Floyd, to make it appear that they support African-Americans, trying to erase the terrible impression that Joe Biden's words made: "The Black Who Doesn't vote democrat, he's not black. "
I can tell you much more, but I don't like to waste my time; I will still tell you that both parties decades ago had conservative and liberal wings. The Republican Party has maintained theirs and that is why today we see that the liberals within that party are called RINO (Republican in name only); whereas in the Democratic Party the conservatives have disappeared and the liberals are in the process of extinction, creating the Walk Away, giving way to the leftists: socialists, progressives or communists.
However, I will tell you something else. In what I have written, I have tried to make it clear that the George Floyd case is an incident used to create disturbances, which has become evident when the videos of the policemen cameras have been seen, which the Prosecutor and the Judge, both Democrats, conveniently withheld. The whole incident was orchestrated as one of police brutality (when the cops treated this highly drugged criminal with great care), to later make it look, with ridicules, that the Democrats support African-Americans and remove the bad taste left by the outburst of Biden when he said: "The black man who doesn't vote for me is not black." Also, in order to try to harm the President, accusing him of being a racist, knowing that he supports law and order, which in the end will lead the silent majority to support him, starting with law enforcement officers from all over the country, who have been attacked by the Democratic Party. The support of the NYPD is an example of what I say.
As in 2016 the Democrats are calling victory and I see that the situation is very similar to that year. The President draws large crowds even with the pandemic and Biden is nowhere to be seen. Let's see, what comes out of confrontation between the President and Biden. I ask: Will they give Biden the questions they will ask him beforehand, as they did with Hillary, or will they put the answers directly into the telepronter? It's not fair that Hillary had that advantage there and Biden doesn't have something better.
