Setting The Record Straight
Hillary...or my favorite moniker for her, Shrillary elicited memories of my past when she eluded to LBJ as the "hero" who signed into law the civil rights bill in 1963/4 (go look ALL it up, I'm tired). Granted, she was trying to minimize Barack Obama, but I cannot allow the lie to go without comment. Afterall, that is what I do here. I was fed that tired lie for the first 30+ years of my life, until I did my homework [not required by an education system who didn't want me to know the truth]. What angered me then, as now, is the lie that Democrats were responsible for civil rights legislation.
In this instance, her denigration of the part played by the HUGE sacrifices of Dr. Martin Luther King, but more importantly the vaunting of the role played by LBJ. Just check out the voting record of Senator Lyndon B. Johnson on the very same issue!
Get it right, Shrillary! LBJ was forced by the REPUBLICANS in congress (starting in 1863) and the pressure from Dr. King and the American people, into signing into law what he'd (LBJ) voted down over 20 years as a senator!
I know, I've posted on this before, but every time the lie of the left comes up, it makes me crazy, and I just have to set the record straight. I've posted all the links to back it up before, but tonight I'm venting. Go exercise your head and look it up yourself! Trust me, it's there! I found it before there was the internet!

Scum. You and I both know this to be the fact, we both know it was the demorats that stood in front of schools to prevent the children (black) from entering, we know the federal government had to push the state aside to enforce the rule of law and human decency, and yet? Not a peep from KKK Bird. Oh, btw, isn't the KKK back running the Senate? Just thought I'd throw THAT out there...

The KKK were the Southern Democrats militia. Senator Bird himself a Kleagle in the Klan was one of their leaders. He has been Senator of West Virginia for 4 decades. It is amazing to me how this Democrat in (Klans)I mean sheeps clothing has not been asked to step down from the Senate. Its because he has a (D)in front of his name. Heaven forbid if he were a Republican. He would of been tarred and feathered by the press, and every interest group the Democrats have.
