Part (3) The True Democrat!

[jon_berzerk]

My, that was a mix and match bunch of lies and truths, but the simple truth is, DEMOCRATS formed the KKK to intimidate BLACKS and REPUBLICANS.... ROTFLMFAO, you did all this bullshit, and got bitch slapped again, because DemocRATS formed the KKK! ...... Want to try again? I can always pull up that whole THREAD!

I just did. With ten different independent sources, every last one of which says you're full of shit.

You are telling us....that 6 Confederate army officers who founded the klan, in no way were members of the democrat party, the party that fought the Republicans to keep slavery in this country......now you are not only funny, you are really stupid.

I guess those army officers were actually closet Republicans...right?

What kind of Planet Moron do you come from where everyone is a member of a political party?

Once again, ten sources. They're correct. Prove me wrong.

Yes....keep telling us that the 6 founding members of the ku klux klan never voted in an election.......and that if they did vote they would have voted for Republicans.....how stupid are you? Wait, I'll answer that, very stupid.

Go fuck yourself. You've been proven wrong. Grow the fuck up.
This just in, there wasn't a whole lotta votin' goin' on in Federally occupied territory in 1865. The states were out of the Union.

I mean how the fuck stupid are you?

This just in, there wasn't a whole lotta votin' goin' on in Federally occupied territory in 1865

indeed there was



The first legislature was elected on September 16, 1861 and met for the first time on March 17, 1862. They completed their work on May 15. Under the leadership of the appointed governor, William Jayne, they established the territorial capital at Yankton, drew the boundaries of eighteen counties, passed a civil code, criminal code, and other laws providing for common schools, elections, taxation, and divorce. Many of these laws were inadequate, and few would be enforced in the next few years.

What other political party existed in the South at the time, DUMBASS?

Oh this oughta be good.

I'm done with you asswipe.......peddle your lies to your obamachumps....

Run away, little girl. You lost.

Let's reveal the answer to our studio audience and all the folks watching at home. The Republican party didn't even exist in the South in the 1860s. It was only founded in 1854 and Lincoln was its second Presidential candidate. The RP printed no ballots in the South. In that time you didn't go to the poll, see a grand list of all candidates and make your selection --- you picked up a ballot from the party you wanted to vote for (with the exception of South Carolina, which didn't even have a popular vote). And it was that party's responsibility to supply ballots. The RP didn't do that in the South, neither in 1860 nor in 1864 (nor 1856 before that). So Lincoln got zero votes in the South and ended up with zero electoral votes --- exactly the same number the Democrat Douglas got. Zero.

Asswipe, no one would stand for the Republican party in the south...what an asswipe....that is why he got zero votes in the south dipshit....you had to state which party you would be a delegate for and no southerner was going to stand up in the south and say they were going to vote republican....

Correct, they weren't about to do that since no such party existed there at the time.
And btw it's "Republican". Proper name, capital letter.

Asswipe...here you go....

United States presidential election, 1860 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the eleven states that would later declare their secession from the Union and be controlled by Confederate armies, ballots for Lincoln were cast only in Virginia,[34][35]where he received only 1.1 percent of the popular vote.[30][36]

In order to distribute ballots in a state, candidates needed citizens in that state who would pledge to vote for the candidate in the Electoral College. In ten southern slave states, no citizens would publicly pledge such support for Lincoln.

So let me see what these PROPAGANDISTS on the left are attacking you with. The people of the South go to war to CONTINUE slavery; which the democratic was for I might add. They were willing to die for their belief in battle, but they could have been Republicans? Is that like Joseph Kennedy loved the Nazis, but was really a Republican too, lolol!

Also, after the war, they start the KKK and attack African Americans and Republicans; but they could have been Republicans, or at the very least, could have had the political leanings of Republicans, just never voted?

Is anyone else laughing their derriers off besides me! Is this how being a leftie has to work; suspend using the thought process that the Almighty gave you, so as you can buy into such obvious PROPAGANDA and actually believe that this is not only possible, but likely! And they, with a straight face, actually TRY and make someone.......anyone....believe it, lolol.

No wonder this country is soooooooo screwed up. It is obvious that some people MUST believe it, or they would not waste their time posting it! How does it go.........don't think, don't investigate, just believe what they tell you and vote for their candidate.

Yo, The True Democrat Party!!!

The 1964 Civil Rights Act Roll Call Vote: In the House, only 64 percent of the Democrats (153 yes, 91 no), but 80 percent of the Republicans (136 yes, 35 no), voted for it. In the Senate, while only 68 percent of the Democrats endorsed the bill (46 yes, 21 no), 82 percent of the Republicans voted to enact it (27 yes, 6 no).

Thaddeus Stevens, a Radical Republican that introduced legislation to give African Americans the so-called 40 acres and a mule and Democrats overwhelmingly voted against the bill.

During the Senate debates on the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871, it was revealed that members of the Democratic Party formed many terrorist organizations like the Ku Klux Klan to murder and intimidate African Americans voters. The Ku Klux Klan Act was a bill introduced by a Republican Congress to stop Klan Activities.

History reveals that Democrats lynched, burned, mutilated and murdered thousands of blacks and completely destroyed entire towns and communities occupied by middle class Blacks, including Rosewood, Florida, the Greenwood District in Tulsa Oklahoma, and Wilmington, North Carolina to name a few.

History reveals that it was Abolitionists and Radical Republicans such as Henry L. Morehouse and General Oliver Howard that started many of the traditional Black colleges, while Democrats fought to keep them closed. Many of our traditional Black colleges are named after white Republicans.

After exclusively giving the Democrats their votes for the past 25 years, the average African American cannot point to one piece of civil rights legislation sponsored solely by the Democratic Party that was specifically designed to eradicate the unique problems that African Americans face today.

As of 2004, the Democrat Party (the oldest political party in America) has never elected a black man to the United States Senate, the Republicans have elected three.

The KKK was the terrorist wing of the Democrat Party.

The Klan, the White League, the Yellow Jackets, the Red Caps, the Knights of the White Camellia and others were ALL vigilante groups started up to in effect continue the Civil War. Today we call them "insurgents". Usually they were started and/or headed by returned army vets bitter about their defeat and bitter about occupation by Federal troops. NONE OF THEM WERE STARTED BY A POLITICAL PARTY. That's a matter of record, the Klan record of which has already been linked in abundance. Like it or lump it.

Not everything derives from fucking political parties. Learn how the fucking world works, Junior.

We would not know the name of the KIan any more than an obscure historical footnote as are the Red Caps and the rest, had it not been restarted in a second version in 1915, some 35 years after the original Klan was gone, which was started by a Georgia salesman named William Simmons after seeing and acting-out the movie "Birth of a Nation". Simmons was not a politician, had no known political affiliation, and again did not start the Klan for expressly political purposes but for social ones. But his version was by far the largest and most populated and widespread one, claiming at one point one-third of the adult male population of Indiana.

You rug rats who can't think beyond the idea of cowboys and Indians games where everything runs on political parties are a real joke. Go learn some fucking history.

"Crossovers" are for music genres. This ain't about "crossovers".
I'm asking, if the bullshit meme that the KKK was founded by a political party is true, then why would that political party be working directly against itself?

I can't believe I actually have to spell out the answer to grown adults but the answer is, it wouldn't --- which demonstrates that the premise IS bullshit to start with.

As I said from the beginning NONE of the iterations of the Klan were founded by a political party. The examples above simply show how that organization, when it dabbled in politics at all, worked with (or against) Republicans (or Democrats), whichever worked for that time and place. Democrats in the South. Republicans in Indiana and Colorado. Democrat in Los Angeles. Republicans in Orange County. Democrat in the Oregon state house. Republican in the Portland city hall.

Politics wasn't its goal. This version of the Klan, the Simmons iteration, is the only one that got involved in national political offices, and they used any political party that would work. The politics was secondary -- the primary thrust was as a social police force, keeping blacks, Liberals, communistis, unionists, Catholics, Jews, immigrants and "loose" women "in their place". And that was the KKK's primary purpose. It wasn't started or run by politicians, but by racists, xenophobes and überChristian far-right yahoos.

I'm asking, if the bullshit meme that the KKK was founded by a political party is true, then why would that political party be working directly against itself?

I can't believe I actually have to spell out the answer to grown adults but the answer is, it wouldn't --- which demonstrates that the premise IS bullshit to start with.

As I said from the beginning NONE of the iterations of the Klan were founded by a political party. The examples above simply show how that organization, when it dabbled in politics at all, worked with (or against) Republicans (or Democrats), whichever worked for that time and place. Democrats in the South. Republicans in Indiana and Colorado. Democrat in Los Angeles. Republicans in Orange County. Democrat in the Oregon state house. Republican in the Portland city hall.

Politics wasn't its goal. This version of the Klan, the Simmons iteration, is the only one that got involved in national political offices, and they used any political party that would work. The politics was secondary -- the primary thrust was as a social police force, keeping blacks, Liberals, communistis, unionists, Catholics, Jews, immigrants and "loose" women "in their place". And that was the KKK's primary purpose. It wasn't started or run by politicians, but by racists, xenophobes and überChristian yahoos.

no matter how you want to spin it the KKK is and was a product of the democrat party

Horseshit. I already put up ten (10) links that disprove that. Go ahead and find one -- even one -- that proves your point.

you are full of shit

you gave bits and pieces

fact is the KKK was a product of the democrat party

they even attacked and hung republicans that helped out the free blacks

No actually I'm full of links. Ten of them.
You know links --- those things you don't have?

Don't shovel shit, and you won't get buried. That's my advice.

oh sure there are always a few crossovers

just as there are some progressives in the republican party

but in the kkk the democrats far outweighed the republicans

yes but it represents a small portion of the KKK

the KKK by and far was a product of the democrat party

the 1924 Democrat convention is known as the Klanbake for a reason

oh btw over the years hundreds upon hundreds of links of the KKK in relation to the democrats

which you seemingly always ignore

 

[Eric Cartman]

Conservatives seem to take solace in the fact that decades ago some Democrats were as racist as them.

The next one will make a total of .... one.

None of the KKKs were "by and far" a product of ANY party. Even if there were such an entity as a "democrat party" which has never existed. I demonstrated all this in my list of links. I'm afraid my links trump your links because --- oh wait --- you don't have any.

Of course, full disclosure here, I'm working under a handicap. I'm limited to trivial things like, you know, "history" and "facts". You know, stuff found in "books". I don't have access to the Glenn Beck fantasy wet dreams crocked up to sell gold bars.

the 1924 Democrat convention is known as the Klanbake for a reason

And do you have any clue in the world what that reason is? Actually I already posted on it right here. Let's see if you can figure it out. Open book test.

Fun fact: 1924 was also the year both Clarence Morley and Rice Means were getting eleKKKted. Edward Jackson was already in office. Jack Walton had been removed from office the year before.

All this going on simultaneously. An old toast says, "may you live in interesting times". And we think we have lively campaigns...
