Thanks for that. What you said is true and profound.
Right-wing historical revisionism is so rampant that one, essentially, must go in for blatant revisionism in order to be a right-winger.
I find that the left is continually re-writing history. For instance, the Civil Rights Law of 1964 was filibustered by Democrats. A larger percentage of republicans voted for it in both houses than Democrats did.
Northern Democrats and Republicans voted for the Civil Rights Bill...Southern Democrats and Republicans voted against the Civil Rights Bill. The Southern Democrats were so angry at LBJ, they left the Democratic Party and became Republicans. They counted their bigotry as more important than their political party and left the Democrats in droves at that point.
Unless you want to argue that the Democrats of the early 1960s are the same as the Democrats today.
So you admit the Democrat Party was full of racists in the 60s. I agee. I've heard the same spin over and over. I was there. George Wallace and Robert Byrd obviously didn't get the memo. The truth is conservative Democrats left when the Democrat party nominated McGovern for President.
