And of course - the FACT that the Klan had southern tiesHeck Salty, you don't know the half of it! You probably have no idea how deep and durable and damning those ties really were!
to the Democratic party.... since we're discussing the Klan. Originally Posted by Salty Again

At least Biden did not mismanage a pandemic and kill 500,000 people.

Byrd changed, he voted for the ACA (Obamacare). Good ole Strom never changed. He was a segregationist to the day he died.You are wrong about Strom Thurmond never changing his segregationist views. In 1971, he was the first Southern congressional member to hire a black legislative assistant. About this time, he also started paying attention to black South Carolina's politicians and their constituents. He became chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee in 1980 and he eventually supported renewal of the Voting Rights Act. He also voted to establish a holiday in memory of Martin Luther King, Jr. Read the link and learn something ada.
You try to lump the dixiecrat party with the John F. Kennedy democrats. Your logic just does not fly, Salty. Are you sure you were never Uncle Han? Originally Posted by adav8s28

Of course after JFK's assassination that's when the Democrats started acting like a bunch of fucking jag-offs and they haven's quit since, they've only have gotten worse.

Maybe a point or two but that "incident of incompetence" has been over taken by what I said yesterday, this will go down in political history as one of the dumbest things ever said, a few weeks before an election. When McCauliff said on national TV ( assuming CNN and MSNBC even played the clip ) that parents shouldn't have any say on what their children should be taught in school, he lit a fire that is getting bigger by the day. And this is not just a Virginia thing, "this education thing" I believe is second only to the economy which includes supply chains and all the other things effecting the economy in first place.
Why else would McCauliff be down in some polling by 6 to 8% in a matter of days? What a fun night it will be if the Republican goes into the evening in every major poll with a 6 to 8% lead and McCauliff ends up winning by 6 to 8%? Think there will be any voter fraud conversations to be had?
Yeah, Americans are plenty pissed, well, Republicans and Independents are but Democrats are to busy building that fire wall around Biden to be concerned about the lives of 13 service members and Afghanistan and Democrats aren't about to hold Biden accountable and will not admit as the Times and WAPO both say, was a clusterfuck, though in more polite terms.
No one thought (From the Chairman of Joint Chief of Staff all the way down) that the Ag army would fall apart in two weeks.
That's up for debate. I have seen more than a few formal high ranking military people say that in no time in the 20 years we were there, did they ever have what we would call a credible fighting force. One can find "training" videos of new Afghan recruits trying to be taught how to do a jumping jack and failing miserably, drunk or most likely high. There were reports that the Majority of Afghan soldiers showed up for work, if they showed up for work, drunk and unfit to carry out a mission. Any "real fighting, strategic fighting, was done by the Allied soldiers and the Afghan Special Forces which more resembled an American unit which simply did not exist in the regular Afghan Army.
Once that happened you were going to have problems, unless you redeployed more troops. Sleepy Joe did not want to do that.
"Here's an idea Mr. President, lets remove the Americans and designated Afghans out AND THEN PULL OUT THE TROOPS? And keep open a valuable military asset, Bagram, a second air strip to help with the evacuation FIRST!
Naw says Joe Biden, against all military advice, this is indisputable since Milley and all the other major players say the same thing "don't do it this way", the new President says "I'm going to do this my way gentleman and that's the last word on that". I believe his next words on the subject were "deploy 6 thousand troops BACK TO AFGHANISTAN to be a security force for the evacuation.
Ah yes, you interestingly leave out the part about how every single military commander from Milley on down, told the President "don't do it this way" by pulling out all troops before successfully evacuating everybody that need to get out. Joe Biden is literally the only person in America if polled, would think what he did was the best way to do it.
The British Parliament certainly didn't think so when they stood as one on the floor of Parliament and "condemned" what the President of the United States had just done. I wonder when was the last time that ever happened if any. The President who was going to re-unite the US with our European allies that Dems say Trump had broken, was smashed into a million pieces with the heads of Europe wondering if they will ever be able to trust this American President, ever again.
At least Biden did not mismanage a pandemic and kill 500,000 people.

The staunch segregationist who somehow fathered a child with a black woman and filibustered the Civil rights act in 1965 as a republican.So you're says that that video was videoSHOPPED??
If you want to look up racist in websters, good ole Strom will be at the top. Originally Posted by adav8s28
