I just find it hilarious that you attack me about not knowing the political views of southern Dems, who I describe (accurately) as ultra conservatives, who worked to repress civil rights........while you talk about how liberal you are.The democrats weren't liberals either....
Democrats don't know what the word "liberal" means... I'm a real liberal and democrats/progressives are authoritarian right-wing fascists and have been ever since their conception. (Well except for the early 20th century progressives who fought for civil liberties for all) - present day "progressives" are just authoritarian lunatics - no more do they work for civil liberties - no they work to BAN civil liberties, guns, pop, happy meal toys, food, speech, religion etc.... Their "progress" has turned into fascism.
You mean Dixiecrats like Strom Thurmond who then switched to the Republican Party and was instrumental in coming up with and aiding in Nixons Southern Strategy that would use segrationist, dixiecrats and racist to turn the south from reliably Democratic to Republican....Who should learn about their history???????

Funny how Strom Thurmond was originally a democrat....
I got news for you - all those racist democrats that flipped the script to republican - were never REAL republicans in the first place - they only did it out of protest, because they didn't like the fact democrats were now financially supporting blacks....
What do you expect in a two party system?
Do you believe those idiots believed in any republican philosophy????
Hell no - all they did when they did that was flip the DNC the bird....
The GOP philosophy is NOT one of civil liberties, are you still stuck in the 1860's? That party has changed, and if you were any kind of student of the parties, you would see that.Funny how Strom Thurmond was originally a democrat....

And you wonder what is wrong with me?
Good grief.
Wrong.You still avoid the point, the difference between bigotry and racism IS the amount of action.
I shifted the topic? No, it is you who shifted the topic... AGAIN. The topic at hand was the racist component contained within the liberal agenda. Remember? Sure you do! The premise being that many on the left hold to this elitist belief that they are better, smarter, and more capable and minorities can only succeed with their help... (ie, without them minorities are nothing)you shifted the topic from political philosophy to personal attributes. ALL politicians are always trying to gain, that wasn't the issue, you are ascribing the idea of helping individuals to vanity...it is a false idea.

And I supposedly need an education....FFS.
First off, i did not say all...and second are you admitting that the South in general is socially conservative?Of course democrats in the south were all ultra conservative (religiously), not to mention authoritarian. The notion that it has changed is hilarious...
Really! So lets take the the 64 Civil right vote as an example. The northern GOP voted at a lower % in favor than the northern Dems did. The southen GOP voted at a lower % in favor than the southern Dems.Today people don't comprehend the definition of words or the philosophies connected correctly.
The republicans have always (for the most part) been the real liberals and the "liberals" have always been the right-wingers - liberals have always been the authoritarians.
Really? cite an example of republicans trying to block civil liberties?
Today all I see are a bunch of so called "liberals" running around trying to legislate what people can eat, drink, ingest, say, think, telling people what products they need to buy, banning other products, hijacking businesses etc... I don't see republicans doing that.
Now that's what I see...
In what way's are republicans authoritarian??? in what ways are they trying to create a utopia?

I just did, DOMA, DA/DT.Really? cite an example of republicans trying to block civil liberties?
Really, so when the GOP restricts what a woman does with her body, that is not restricting her choice.Today all I see are a bunch of so called "liberals" running around trying to legislate what people can eat, drink, ingest, say, think, telling people what products they need to buy, banning other products, hijacking businesses etc... I don't see republicans doing that.
I did not know that utopia was always authoritarian. I don't think it would be so for the vast numbers who envision a true utopia....which for me would be an anarchistic world where everyone knew before hand the consequences of their actions and followed the Golden rule.Now that's what I see...

Uh...yeah, because he saw the errors of his ideas and self reformed. We call that forgiveness.Speaking of "bird", Robert Bird remained a Democrat till his death. At his funeral he was praised by Democrats including Bill Clinton.
No, that is isolationism, it is separating yourself from the community. It is the utopia of libertarians to be completely alone, to kill themselves if they wish, to live without responsibility. You can do that out in the wilderness.....but in an urban setting, it is just the worst form of anarchy.@ Gimmesometruth
You know what makes me a real liberal? the simple fact I could care less what you do just as long as what you're doing isn't hurting others.
You could smoke a carton of cigarettes a day - I wouldn't care. You could drink a bucket of cola and I wouldn't care. You could eat 5 Big Macs a day and I wouldn't care. But progressives like yourself apparently believe it's your business to tell me I cant live a certain lifestyle because you believe you're so damn smart and your intelligence is Gods gift to humanity...
You see - I don't need you or government telling me how to live my life or telling me what I can and cant do.
That's real liberalism... And a matter of fact that is real conservatism...
Racism doesn't know political party, country, or religion, it only knows race.
Ah good, expertise from an irrational basis.My feelings ....
Seriously? You don't see Republicans, e.g., opposing gay marriage, the elimination of don't ask don't tell, the DREAM Act, pushing restrictive voter ID laws that disproportionately impact minorities, opposing affirmative action, etc., etc.? What planet are you living on?
you are right, there are bound to be racist democrats.
Ah good, expertise from an irrational basis.
I personally don't like or dislike Obama........I just think the is incompetent aand the worse president ever elected in this country.
Wow, discrimination based on sexual preference....is OK with you. We should not be free to chose who we want to love, we should hide it.Gay marriage was never legal in the first place - not to mention marriage is nothing more than contract law - hence any individual could engage in a contract with another individual. The whole marriage thing is nothing more than symbolic.
What is wrong with keeping ones sexuality to ones self? Besides, I really don't see how sexuality plays a role in any job - including military service.
Heya Kid, still operating on "feelings" I see, nice to know you don't change.Hiya Gimmie!
Still buying that sack of beans old Jack, a.k.a Obama, is selling I see. Good for you, it becomes you. :mrgreen:
