“I’m really not sure when the magical “switching places” took place, because it looks to me like Democrats have always been the racists.”

Democrats have been so successful in playing the race card against Republicans that it is only natural that someone would attempt to play the race card right back at the Democrats. If successful, the thinking goes, urban youths will begin streaming to the polls and vote a straight GOP ticket.

It will not work and not because of Dinesh D’Souza’s uneven past.

Who made the statement below: Jefferson Davis or Abraham Lincoln?

“I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in anyway the social and political equality of the white and black races - that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race. I say upon this occasion I do not perceive that because the white man is to have the superior position the negro should be denied everything.”

Net: Just be careful playing the race card. Unless you are prepared to tear down the monuments to George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and George Mason. And General Grant.

Dinesh DSouza

Y’all enjoy

I’ll pass

He’s full of shit to a certain degree

Like every southern dem voter just died out in 1972

Anyone ever look how Goldwater did in 1964

Those southerners were just hidden GOP

Your moniker is the best example how flawed neoyankee veneration of the GOPe from 1860 till now is tomfoolery

Plus I lived this transformation and saw it unfold with my own eyes

Unlike Dartmouth oracle

Even his pal Laura Ingraham knows it’s a complicated history and admits so

Freepers like things meat and taters

One question

What the hell was so great about 1960s civil rights legislation?

It begat the crap we are living with

It’s all so stupid to fixate in this poppycock Glen Beck version of history considering we’re getting creamed culture wise

Never Trumpers love this demonizing the South

Ever wonder why?

Eff it

I’ve watched this crap here for 18 years...

It’s part of the problem and defines our inherent weakness
