I would highly recommend you go read this post at Ex-Liberal In Hollywood. It’s an excellent essay on the roots of the Democratic party and the history that the left appears to forget every day:
A reader objected recently to my comment that Democrats were responsible for the lynching of black and white Republicans during the 19th and 20th centuries. Sounding a little like Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, he demanded academic proof.
Although one essay cannot adequately present proof, these books, this movie, and this Civil War series contain plenty of resources for further study.
Like my antagonist and many other Americans, public schools taught me that white people had enslaved blacks and that their progeny were entitled to relief. I didn?t question this, although it didn?t square with my ancestors who fought to end slavery 150 years ago. If whites were guilty, why did two million of them interrupt their lives to fight the bloodiest war in American history to free slaves owned by Southern Democrats? If this was a white-against-black thing, why did whites fight the Civil War against other whites?
The answer is that the Civil War wasn?t between whites and blacks, but between Republicans who wanted to end slavery, and Democrats who did not. And as ugly as the Democratic Party?s roots and legacy of slavery, the KKK, Jim Crow, and Disenfranchisement is, why does the party still exist today?
The first clue of this information blackout comes directly from Democrats. Although the Republican Party proudly discloses their Abolitionist roots on their website, the Democratic Party (DNC) website ignores their slavery agenda, excluding the entire period between 1848 and the 20th Century. Instead, the DNC boasts the ?longest running political organization in the world?, the ?Democratic cause? (slavery) and their dominance in urban (e.g., black) politics – as if Democrats had nothing to do with the brutality used to round up blacks.
This is a synopsis of what the DNC website missed.
It’s a must read for those interested in the shameful history of the Democratic party, he also writes much about the proud Republican history of fighting slavery and winning the Civil war.
What really raised my eyebrows was when he writes about the civil case currently on the 9th Circuit’s desk where a decendent of slavery is suing the Democratic party, alleging that:
- Democrats supported Slavery and its expansion into the northern states
- Democrats introduced the Missouri Compromise and the Kansas-Nebraska Act to expand slavery into the northern states
- Democrats support of the Dred Scott Decision
- Democrats supported Fugitive Slave Laws
- Democrats collectively opposed the 13th Amendment to end slavery
- Democrats collectively opposed the 14th Amendment to give blacks citizenship
- Democrats collectively opposed the 15th Amendment to give blacks the right to vote
- Democrats exhausted every efforts to destroy Reconstruction including opposing the 1867 Reconstruction Act and coming up with the Compromise of 1877
- Democrats opposed the Freedman Bureau
- Democrats opposed Senate Bill 60 of 1866 to give blacks 40 acres and mule (It was Democratic President Andrew Johnson that vetoed the Bill)
- Democrats supported of the Slaughter House Case
- Democrats opposed the 1866 Civil Rights Acts
- Democrats opposed the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871 and continue to opposed anti-lynching laws up through 1965
And much more.

Another rather good history lesson can be found at this site.

How did we get from there to where we are today, with the Dems being so successful in selling themselves as something so vastly different than their history?
That blows Christine, hope things are working out better since then.
Until I came down here, I had never encountered to this type of vile filth.
I lost my job on Dec. 29th due to this racism.
