Is There Any Chance Christie Did NOT Know About the Dirty Tricks?

We NEED Republicans to keep fighting Democrats
to defeat their social legislation, thereby preserving our ancient freedom

anger swamped his brain it would seem.

Social legislation rapes the Constitution.

do you think that 80% or more of Republicans were "liberals" back then?

The south was run by the Dems until the early 90's. From the 1940's until the 1990's it was in total Dem control

And when the democratically push civil rights laws came along they converted to republicans. Everyone knows that.

Most of us don't have a problem with the Promote the general welfare, but those on the left want to use that line to provide everything for people. It has become a catch all phrase for the libs in society to create the largest hand out system the US has ever had.

Absolutely, Frank.

And the change over began long before the 1990's...starting in earnest during the LBJ administration.

After Kennedy's death, Johnson took the initiative in finishing what Kennedy started and broke a filibuster by Southern Democrats in March 1964; as a result, this pushed the bill for passage in the Senate.[62] Johnson signed the revised and stronger bill into law on July 2, 1964.[62] Legend has it that, as he put down his pen, Johnson told an aide, "We have lost the South for a generation", anticipating a coming backlash from Southern whites against Johnson's Democratic Party. Moreover, Richard Nixon politically counterattacked with the Southern Strategy where it would "secure" votes for the Republican Party by grabbing the advocates of segregation as well as most of the Southern Democrats.[63]

Exactly the way I remember it, Bill.
My personal opinion is that American conservatives have always been on the wrong side of major problems...although I know there are people here in the forum who strongly disagree with me on that.
In any case, the suggestion that American conservatives were champions of the civil rights efforts of the 60's and 70's...is almost too bizarre for words.
