"Cool story bro" time:
My wife went to a small christian college. And like most college age kids, she was interested in partying, but going to that school made them become more creative.
She had 1 or 2 bottles of manischewitz in her dorm room, and convinced the dorm mom that she practiced communion with her and her room-mate in order to get closer to God.
Does it count as communion if you drink 2 bottles in a night?
that's great... lol. it counts if you toast g-d each time.
during prohibition, the only liquor that was 'legal' was wine for religious services... so catholics and jews were the only ones with legal liquor until prohibition was repealed.
yay us!
Yay!
I knew I was Catholic for a reason!
When it's pointed out that the Republican Party is 90% white and nearly all Christian, they deny it.
Why?
After all, they target minorities. Next, they'll be denying that.
it should also be noted that only two amendments ever limited individual rights... the amendment requiring prohibition and that whiich outlawed slavery.
Outlawing slavery limited individual rights? That's some twisted logic right there.

Who's denying anything. We're the party of opportunity....not handouts.
lthough the phrase "Southern strategy" is often attributed to Nixon political strategist Kevin Phillips, he did not originate it,[1] but merely popularized it.[2] In an interview included in a 1970 New York Times article, he touched on its essence:
From now on, the Republicans are never going to get more than 10 to 20 percent of the Negro vote and they don't need any more than that... but Republicans would be shortsighted if they weakened enforcement of the Voting Rights Act. The more Negroes who register as Democrats in the South, the sooner the Negrophobe whites will quit the Democrats and become Republicans. That's where the votes are. Without that prodding from the blacks, the whites will backslide into their old comfortable arrangement with the local Democrats.[3]

you missed the point... that there were only two negative amendments, rather than expansive.
and no... drinking and owning slaves are not the same... but a bunch of yahoos in the 1920's thought they were in the same league.
poor baby.
i like your doofenshmirtz (sp?) avatar, though.

I got the point sweetheart.
But it's still pretty twisted to conclude that outlawing slavery restricts liberty more than it expands it.

I soooo did not know that! Makes being either Catholic or Jewish even better.... just in case the bastards ever ban it again, we'll be fine.

puleeze... party of opportunity that uses racial divisions as a means of getting votes.

Southern strategy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
So, let me get this straight. The us population is 87% white, and the rally attenders were 87% white and someone says there is a problem?
Not unless you consider all Hispanics "white"...
you missed the point... that there were only two negative amendments, rather than expansive.

but not for the people who had the rights at the time. it reflects more on those who thought alcohol was equally onerous.

Makes you wonder, to get the proportions that they wanted... Did Sharpton turn away white people?Here's an interesting observation...
There were more minorities at Beck's rally than attendees at Sharpton's.
The media is pointing out irony.Beck: Help us restore traditional American values
WASHINGTON Conservative commentator Glenn Beck and tea party champion Sarah Palin appealed Saturday to a vast, predominantly white crowd on the National Mall to help restore traditional American values and honor Martin Luther King's message. Civil rights leaders who accused the group of hijacking King's legacy held their own rally and march.
Beck: Help us restore traditional American values - Yahoo! News
the irony...when do other crowds get labeled as predominantly this color or ethnicity....especially when talking about king's message where he dreamed one day we would not be judged by the color of our skin, but the content of our character
why was it important to focus on the skin color?
Beck wants to "take back" the civil rights movement...what does that mean, and what does it mean that most of his followers are white?
What race baiters rally next door?Percentage of White Americans is 79.6% (according to the US Census Bureau 2009)
So, if the crowd was 87% white, then 13% were minorities. If Beck is this evil race baiter, 'spewing hate' yadda, yadda, yadda, why did so many non Whites turn up? Did they get lost on the way to the race baiters rally next door?
Sharpton.... he's made a good living out of race baiting.
Seen any pics of his 'reclaiming the dream' rally? 200/300 blacks. No accusations of racism for that?
