Many Americans may not recall the civil rights movement of the 1950s, 60s and 70s that ultimately put an end to Jim Crow laws and attitudes in America and created equal opportunity for everyone regardless of race. Individuals Like Rosa Park, Medger Evers, Ralph Abernathy and Martin Luther King squared off non-violently against the likes of Selma Police Chief Bull Connor, Neshoba (Mississippi) County Sheriff Lawrence Rainey and his deputy Cecil Ray Price.
Their prime pursuit was the perpetuation of racism and segregation, a fight that they rightfully lost.
And the new Bull Connor, Lawrence Rainey and Cecil Ray Price are ironically, Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid and their Democratic Party, as they relegate nearly 50% of Americans to be deserving of being deprived of their hard-earned dollars and enact legislation that essentially forces all Americans to purchase a product that many do not want or need.

ya obama and team are racist
The progressives were always the racists and have always fought against equal rights for all. Even on issues such as gay marriage and abortion the progressives fight against equal representation for all and want progressive morality to be dictated to the people.
The Abortion movement was started by the progressives along side with eugenics and was meant to eliminate un-desirables (as was so well put by progressive justice Ginsburg) and more black babies are killed than any other demographic.
Separation of Church and State was started by progressive democrats because blacks were invited to religious ceremonies in the Congress, so the democrats boycotted these ceremonies. Later a lawyer for the KKK was appointed to the Supreme Court by the progressive FDR and he institutionalized this anti-equality doctrine into law. Now today the progressives use this court precedent to try and discriminate against Christians and to give unfair advantage to socialist secular ideology.
I could never understand how progressive taxation could be Constitutional being that is blatantly violates equal protection under the law. How can you have different laws for different people? One has to pay this much, another pays less, some pay none, some only get the property of others. This is blatantly anti-equality for all.
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. “
Sorry but it is not ironic at all because democrats were the ones who created Jim Crow laws and fought the passing of civil rights!
I blame Michael Steele for not acting in the best interests of the GOP by failing to ask the National Black Republican Association to join the RNC as a sister organization to promote Republicanism among the black community.
