Republican poll watchers in Georgia cover their license plates

[surada]

How many names of congressmen can you list to back that up?

Strom Thurmond for one, but I'm talking about voters in the South.

You have one.......and he had to give up his racist crap to become a republican......meanwhile, the truth....

What happened to all those racist Dixiecrats that, according to the progressive narrative, all picked up their tents and moved from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party? Actually, they exist only in the progressive imagination.

This is the world not as it is but as progressives wish it to be. Of all the Dixiecrats who broke away from the Democratic Party in 1948, of all the bigots and segregationists who voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964, I count just two—one in the Senate and one in the House—who switched from Democrat to Republican.

In the Senate, that solitary figure was Strom Thurmond. In the House, Albert Watson. The constellation of racist Dixiecrats includes Senators William Murray, Thomas P. Gore, Spessard Holland, Sam Ervin, Russell Long, Robert Byrd, Richard Russell, Olin Johnston, Lister Hill, John C. Stennis, John Sparkman, John McClellan, James Eastland, Herman Talmadge, Herbert Walters, Harry F. Byrd, George Smathers, Everett Jordan, Allen Ellender, A. Willis Robertson, Al Gore Sr., William Fulbright, Herbert Walters, W. Kerr Scott, and Marion Price Daniels.

The list of Dixiecrat governors includes William H. Murray, Frank Dixon, Fielding Wright, and Benjamin Laney. I don’t have space to include the list of Dixiecrat congressmen and other officials. Suffice to say it is a long list. And from this entire list we count only two defections.

Thus the progressive conventional wisdom that the racist Dixiecrats became Republicans is exposed as a big lie.

The Dixiecrats remained in the Democratic Party for years, in some cases decades. Not once did the Democrats repudiate them or attempt to push them out.


Segregationists like Richard Russell and William Fulbright were lionized in their party throughout their lifetimes, as of course was Robert Byrd, who died in 2010 and was eulogized by leading Democrats and the progressive media.

The Switch That Never Happened: How the South Really Went GOP › American Greatness
===========


Perhaps it was the Nixon’s Southern Strategy. That does seem to be a more common explanation these days than the Dixiecrats. But Nixon’s Southern Strategy never actually happened. He did not campaign in the Deep South, but on the outskirts of the South. His strategy was the Sunbelt Strategy, which went from parts of Florida to California. Much of the south was outside where he actually campaigned.
On August 23, 2018, The Hill, published an opinion piece by Dinesh D’Souza, The myth of Nixon’s ‘Southern Strategy’ which stated:

Nixon recognized the South was changing. It was becoming more industrialized, with many northerners moving to the Sunbelt. Nixon’s focus, Phillips writes, was on the non-racist, upwardly-mobile, largely urban voters of the Outer or Peripheral South. Nixon won these voters, and he lost the Deep South, which went to Democratic segregationist George Wallace.

In 1968, Nixon did not take a single state considered Deep South. Segregationist, George Wallace, took the Deep South. Hubert Humphry, the Democrats’ nominee, took Texas. This map shows just how well Nixon’s strategy worked and exactly who the Deep South voted for.

Reagan is claimed to have used a continuation of Nixon’s Southern Strategy that never was. For Reagan, considering the states he won, it was more of an American strategy, beating Carter 489 electoral votes to 49.
Every claim Democrats make about the parties switching is not based on truth. Divisiveness and propaganda are the only things the Democrats have, and it continues to be very effective.

The other big Lie. ^^^^

 

[bodecea]

How dare she touch their car, their property? I hope they called the police...

What is the point of exposing the license plate lefties?

Defending disrespect of the flag..

 

[The Original Tree]

Afraid of being identified while intimidating voters, these Republican poll watchers break the law by covering their license plates. They now know they're being watched themselves.

They must be planning more Election Fraud.
You like that shit, don't yah?

 

[Cellblock2429]

Most all Dixiecrats became Republicans between 1965 and 1970. Were you born yet?

/----/ You idiot. I was born in 1951 and grew up in the segregated south run by democrats. The Dixiecrats didn't join the GOP with the exception of Strom Thurmond. They died off and the younger generation turned towards the conservative GOP because we couldn't stomach the racist democrat party. I was there - you weren't, moron.

 

[Auld Phart]

Strom Thurmond for one, but I'm talking about voters in the South.

out of 535 congressmen, you come up with one name?

 

[Auld Phart]

Defending disrespect of the flag..

were they burning it?


That's disrespect, and dems support it

 

[surada]

out of 535 congressmen, you come up with one name?

It's been a while. I don't remember.

Strom was a family friend. Are you from SC?

 

[westwall]

Ran out of talking points did ya

 

[westwall]

Strom was a family friend. Are you from SC?

That explains your racism...

 

[candycorn]

If the White people in Georgia let the goddamn Democrat Negroes intimidate them then that is their own damn fault for not standing up and doing the right thing.

And what is the "right thing there" Johnny Reb?

 

[westwall]

And what is the "right thing there" Johnny Reb?

Not allowing themselves to be silenced by assholes calling them names.

 

[OldFlame]

Defending disrespect of the flag..

While you defend disrespect of someone else's property...

I would never in a million years feel that I would have the right to go grab something off of someone else's car, that takes a special kind of stupid... and then to add insult to injury, she's recording herself doing it. I hope she gets charged.

 

[OldFlame]

They can't handle that conservatives are finally standing up to their bullshit, if they were hypocrites before (and they were), they will be even more so now while trying to attack conservatives for political activism that is intended to stops them from their lowlife tactics. They're used to getting away with whatever they want to do, so glad these people watching the drop boxes are stepping up, God bless them.

 

[marvin martian]

You know, these morons could just go home, right?

And let you fascists steal another election? No thanks.

 

[Marener]

And let you fascists steal another election? No thanks.

No one stole the election. You’re just children who can’t accept a loss.

You fascists have a history of doxxing and intimidating people to sway elections.

/——-/ Greenville. Formerly the textile center of the world and home of Bob Jones University. Those bigots wouldn’t let Catholics on campus to see their museum.
