    Am I ballotopedia? I made a mis-statement. Big deal. You should be far more concerned at just how many Democrats voted against it, but that doesn't fit your narrative does it?

    Could be she it there as a crash test dummy to get slammed down by the establishment Democrats, just to show how moderate they are.

    Looks like the vast majority of the GOP supported it, and very little of the Dems. Party of hate...still hating

    Beto Orork just entered the race. He gets bigger crowds of the dumbest people on the earth. Reagan, like what Trump is doing, enacted programs that significantly helped blacks and Hispanics. Blacks and Hispanics voted for Reagan a lot more in the second term when they saw what Reagan had done for them. Same will be true with Trump if he can get these facts out to them.

    Oh now you got caught in a lie, so it really doesn't matter. Trump has made lying the new normal. I don't pat Democrats on the back, hell I believe both parties are the same when it actually comes to looking out for the people.

    The South votes conservative, right wing, republican. Now that I think of it the old Democrat South was conservative and right wing.

    She may end up like most first waves of an invasion, but her agenda is the future and you can't stop it.
    And what's wrong about calling out FDR's racist internment of japanese americans or Reagan's crude race baiting to get a leg up among the rubes?

    Is that why the Klan loves the GOP, is that why Duke won as a Republican because you took him in with open arms.

    best you get better educated
    you can start by reading these

    The New Deal as raw deal for blacks in segregated communities
    https://www.washingtonpost.com/opin...ory.html?noredirect=on&utm_term=.8de0c29006a2

    Why Did FDR’s New Deal Harm Blacks?
    https://www.cato.org/publications/commentary/why-did-fdrs-new-deal-harm-blacks

    yes blacks did switch to the democrat party because of the hollow promises made to them by democrats and they are still getting those same hollow promises today by the same party for their vote

    Dems Excited About Beto: “Beto gets away with drunken car accidents like a Kennedy, he appropriates other cultures like Elizabeth Warren, and he marries into wealth like John Kerry. He’s the total package!”

    Congress needs more gadflys not less. Let her spout away. Upon occasion these types whatever their ideological propensity will say a truth, that really needs to come out in those august committee hearings and on the sober and illustrious House floor. Its well worth it, despite the silly hyperbole that flows out the rest of the time. Leave her be and hope she wins reelection. Vanilla, strawberry and chocolate are not the only flavors in a Baskin Robbins ice cream cone.

    You can spin it anyway you want. You said there was NO republicans in the South, now just because you didn't know what the hell you were talking about doesn't stop it from being a lie.

    Lol...When it comes to climate change, you people can't throw others under the bus and say, 'you're on your own', eh?
    We're all on the same bus.
    Too bad that trump lacks the courage and integrity of the Finns.

    Yes I did, I was mistaken. Re-read the previous post with the definitions, or get some one to explain it to you.

    A lie is a lie I don't care who tells it. You didn't misspeak, you told a lie and got caught on it. Misspeaking would have been if you would have said, "there were only 3 republicans" and it turned out to be 6.
