Anyone awake to say hello to a verbose troll named elputo?
Yawn...
Would you please give a brief summary of what you wrote up there?
Look what the cat drug in. It's not doing so well, please can we keep him?
Thanks for all you do. Pizza's on me. Soft drinks too. Literally.
Am I the only one here tonight?
Do you like kitties?
Hello el puto.
Well, I think voting is very important.
I did not vote for DU posts being posted on FR.
I say we vote your post an award winning zot.
Fair and balanced voting -- that's the way to gooooooo.

But why dwell on these things? Our betters in the political and media elite have told us to get over it, move on..."
Oh dear, you sound terribly bitter...
Get over it!
Here's the only response you need: who voted to enact the Civil Rights Act? Republicans. Who voted to provide an atmosphere of low taxes and limited government involvement to fuel the economy of the south? Republicans. Who appointed blacks to the highest cabinet offices and courts in the US? Republicans.
Who wants to keep blacks on the government plantation of dependence? Democrats.
Bye!
THE DAMNED DEMS!
bite me... now I'm going back to bed. On second thought, don't bite me troll. Who knows where that mouth has been?

When did you reach your delusional peak dear, and why aren't you asleep, young Troll?
You are a classic example of a bad public school education.
Your eager use of racial epithets and slurs are the giveaway that you're a child, what... about 13 years old?
Go wash your mouth out with soap and come back when you have read an accurate History book.
For crying out loud.
I'm sure your mommy is proud of you.
However, I make my own guesses and, now, you must make yours.
My guess is you copied and pasted this garbage from the DUmp. What is you screen name there - FloridaPat?
Quivering moonbats wonder: "How will YOU know when it's time to GET OUT OF THE USA?"
Just go back to the DUmp and cry with your other DUmmies.
There is so much inaccuracy and drawing to conclusions in that wikipedia article that I wouldn't know where to start arguing the points. The southern strategy was never about racism (although in some districts it did devolve to that). People forget that a larger percentage of the Republican party had supported the civil rights act. The southern strategy was more about targeting an area of the country that LBJ wasn't.
Incidentally, people should go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Southern_strategy and voice their opinion on this matter. Its a high profile sight and they got it all wrong.
