Our nation’s top historians reveal that the Democratic Party gave us the Ku Klux Klan, Black Codes, Jim Crow Laws and other repressive legislation which resulted in the multitude of murders, lynchings, mutilations, and intimidations (of thousands of black and white Republicans).

The Typical Democrat Below:

 

[jwoodie]

Democrats and democrats are polar opposites.

 

[Pogo]

The KKK was the terrorist wing of the Democrat Party.

The KKK was never affiliated with, or founded by, any political party, Pinkie. It was founded by six bored Confederate soldier vets. When it dabbled in politics at all (the second KKK, in the 1920s) it worked to elect both Democrats and Republicans, and fought against both Democrats and Republicans, according to its own interests.

And btw there is no such thing as a "Democrat Party". There never has been.

So, how come the ******* won't vote GOP?

 

[Mr. H.]

So, how come the ******* won't vote GOP?

The GOP is the Party of "Get your ass to your job, bitch"

Democrats are the Party of "stay home and collect".

Get the picture, Negro?

Conservatives like to compare the histories of the republican and Democrat parties, when really they should be comparing the history of conservaties and liberals in this country. The conservatives who fear minorities and defend the confederate flag now make up the base of the republican party; though they did make up the base of the Democrat party 50 years ago.

Great points. The intellectually dishonest will try to conflate "Republican" with "conservative" even though when the party was founded it was Liberal. There's no more Liberal an utterance than "all men are created equal", which is what Abolition put into practice.

Couple of quibbles though, FDR couldn't be called a 'conservative' and Black's Klan membership wasn't known at the time (nor did Klan membership mean then what it means now). And there's no evidence Truman was in the Klan either. Truman desegregated the military and made so much noise about "civil rights" in his first (and only) Presidential campaign that the conservative wing of the DP walked out and started their own party, so it would be inaccurate to call him 'conservative' as well.

Overall though, points well taken. Could have also mentioned definitely conservative Strom Thurmond, who led that 1948 walkout, got kicked off the Democratic ballot in 1954 and held the longest filibuster in history (24 hours 18 minutes) in opposition to the 1957 civil rights legislation, which influenced no votes at all and only pissed off his fellow Southern Senators.

Republican liberal and black American, A. Phillip Randolph, organized the 1963 March by Dr. King on Washington.

Great points. The intellectually dishonest will try to conflate "Republican" with "conservative" even though when the party was founded it was Liberal. There's no more Liberal an utterance than "all men are created equal", which is what Abolition put into practice.

Couple of quibbles though, FDR couldn't be called a 'conservative' and Black's Klan membership wasn't known at the time (nor did Klan membership mean then what it means now). And there's no evidence Truman was in the Klan either. Truman desegregated the military and made so much noise about "civil rights" in his first (and only) Presidential campaign that the conservative wing of the DP walked out and started their own party, so it would be inaccurate to call him 'conservative' as well.

Overall though, points well taken. Could have also mentioned definitely conservative Strom Thurmond, who led that 1948 walkout, got kicked off the Democratic ballot in 1954 and held the longest filibuster in history (24 hours 18 minutes) in opposition to the 1957 civil rights legislation, which influenced no votes at all and only pissed off his fellow Southern Senators.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth! The quibbles were paraphrased to make a point and were not necessarily an agreement with one point or the other. I will say this: Conservatism and liberalism cannot be attributed to people as absolutes. Presidents and people in general constantly do things that, in one moment might cause less informed people to label them "liberal" or "conservative" regardless of political party affiliation, when in reality, they are neither. Were that the case, one party would rule everything all the time.

That being said, FDR was, at the moment he opposed anti -lynching laws or took other pro-southern conservative actions, indeed a conservative, He may have vindicated himself later by being more liberal in other areas, but; at the time he did conservative things, he was a conservative. The same goes for the other names mentioned; including Bill Clinton.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth! The quibbles were paraphrased to make a point and were not necessarily an agreement with one point or the other. I will say this: Conservatism and liberalism cannot be attributed to people as absolutes. Presidents and people in general constantly do things that, in one moment might cause less informed people to label them "liberal" or "conservative" regardless of political party affiliation, when in reality, they are neither. Were that the case, one party would rule everything all the time.

Absolutely they're not absolutes. But you weaken your case calling some of these guys "conservatives". Wilson for example segregated the government because he was a racist asshole, but FDR's failure to act had more to do with political pressures and what would be publicly "accepted" than any deliberation on his part; omission rather than commission. That's not being "conservative", it's just being a wimp. When Truman desegregated the military, after the War was over, it was still controversial even then. Enough so that it caused a party split and very nearly cost him the election.

We cannot presume that an action or lack of action reflects the ideology of that particular POTUS as opposed to a popular force they just can't resist. Wilson for example was in office when women got the vote, but it sure wasn't his energy that got it done.
