Frank is always mentioning FDR and Tuskegee.

The funny thing is you never hear a critical word from the Left about Byrd, about FDR and his Tuskegee Experiments, but somehow I'm a "racist" for repeating what Senate Majority Leader Byrd said.


Well, what does poor little CrusaderFrank actually know?


Does he know it was FDR who gave the Tuskegee Airmen their start which led to desegregation?

The Tuskegee Airmen

When Eleanor Roosevelt visited Tuskegee Army Air Field in 1941, she insisted on taking a ride in an airplane with a black pilot at the controls. ER's pilot was Charles Anderson. ER then insisted that her flight with Anderson be photographed and the film developed immediately so that she could take the photographs back to Washington when she left the field. ER used this photograph as part of her campaign to convince FDR to activate the participation of the Tuskegee Airmen in North Africa and in the European Theater.

In June 1943, the Tuskegee Airmen entered into combat over North Africa. The airmen exemplified courage, skill and dedication in combat.




What does Frank know about the medical experiment? Does Frank have facts?
Tall Tales About Tuskegee - Article - National Review Online

In 1932, public health researchers set out to study syphilis, particularly among African Americans, who had higher infection rates than whites. They recruited 399 black men who already had syphilis. The doctors infected no one. In fact, the patients were selected in the first place because they were tertiary-stage syphilitics who were no longer contagious.

The researchers studied the progress of the disease, without treating it, for 40 years.

... it’s worth noting that the Tuskegee study, launched during the pre-dawn of the New Deal-era, was symptomatic of arrogant liberal government. The study “emerged out of a liberal progressive public health movement concerned about the health and well-being of the African-American population,” writes University of Chicago professor Richard Schweder. He adds: “The study was done with the full knowledge, endorsement and participation of African-American medical professionals, hospitals and research institutes.”

note: caution. the above is an opinion piece written by Lucianne Goldberg's idiot son Jonah.
