If you're wondering why nobody's responded, I'd wager it's because your creating a new thread every time a brave thought treks into your skull cavity has become tiresome to most of the board.

Yeah, we know the Democrats aren't clean in the area of race relations. Big friggin revelation.

You and Trent Lott are still both bigots though.

i think there is a scratch on the record... you have posted this before.... i was wondering if it was an echo inside your head or just the posting.

seems "both" would be a good answer

It's a factual history quiz, and one that Democrats wouldn't want you to know about. You know, like Al Gore's dad, Sen. Albert Gore, not exactly supporting the first Civil Rights Act.
Since that time, however, Democrats have done a wonderful job of keeping blacks in their place. Subsidized housing, affirmative action and welfare have all done a remarkable job of holding blacks back. Other popular liberal causes, such as "smart growth" and similar schemes that cause real estate prices to skyrocket, have been effective tools for forcing blacks out of communities such as San Francisco.
If you want to be educated about these issues, you could start reading articles and books by Thomas Sowell of Stanford University's Hoover Institute.
By the way, Sowell is black.

That was then...this is now.
