    Ronald Reagan was the best president in history. Barak Ebola and Jimmy Carter are tied for worst of all time.

    Police officers as a collective aren't killing blacks. Today, BLACKS AS A COLLECTIVE ARE KILLING BLACKS. Today, the greatest anti-black hate group is African Americans. They have the most blood on their hands. They make the Democrat Party's KKK look like an Optimistic Club bridge tournament.

    It's not a distortion or untruth it's a fact that Lincoln and the Republican party were liberals back then and Lincoln was politically akin to a modern progressive.


    Conservatives started the KKK. The Republicans and Democrats switched platforms.

    Even if that were true what does it have to do with Obama? Al Sharption is a respected member of the Democratic Party.

    Obama is not a race pimp period. You are just a racist trying to slander the President.

    Ronald Reagan is the devil!

    Seriously though Reagan didn't have to deal with nearly as many problems as Obama. Who we declare to be best President or worst President is subjective. Obama has kept the majority of his campaign promises, ended and scaled down our long wars, kept America safe, annihilated our enemies and saved our country from economic collapse. Those are facts.

    Spies of Mississippi: The State-Sponsored Campaign to Defeat the Civil Rights Movement




    Spies of Mississippi is a journey into the world of informants, infiltrators, and agent provocateurs in the heart of Dixie.

    The film tells the story of a secret spy agency formed by the state of Mississippi to preserve segregation and maintain “the Mississippi way of life,” white supremacy, during the 1950s and ‘60s. The Mississippi State Sovereignty Commission (MSSC) evolved from a predominantly public relations agency to a full-fledged spy operation, spying on over 87,000 Americans over the course of a decade.

    The Commission employed a network of investigators and informants, including African Americans, to help infiltrate some of the largest Black organizations like National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and The Congress of Racial Equality (CORE). The MSSC was granted broad powers to investigate private citizens and organizations, keep secret files, make arrests, and compel testimony for a state that, as civil rights activist Lawrence Guyot says in the film, “was committed to an apartheid system that would make South Africa blush.”

    The film reveals the full scope and impact of the Commission, including its links to private white supremacist organizations, its ties to investigative agencies in other states, and even its program to bankroll the opposition to civil rights legislation in Washington D.C.

    Weaving in chilling footage of Ku Klux Klan rallies and government propaganda films alongside rare images and interviews from the period, Spies of Mississippi tracks the Commission’s hidden role in many of the most important chapters of the civil rights movement, including the integration of the University of Mississippi, the assassination of Medgar Evers, and the KKK murders of three civil rights workers in 1964.

    What a blatant lie.

    Everything I said is a verifiable fact. What specifically are you challenging?

    Wrong. In order to prove I'm a liar you need to falsify anything I have claimed. I maintain that what I've said is factual so if you want to challenge specific claims do so. Saying that I need to verify everything I say otherwise I'm lying is a dishonest debate tactic. Prove that I'm lying or make a list of claims you find questionable and I'll provide sources.

    Well, here is what I said........


    Especially when you consider your democrats started the KKK.


    He's had fellow pimp Al over to his WH 61 times.
    .

    Also feel free to look up Obama's comments post Zimmerman verdict, post Ferguson and post his prof pal in Cambridge getting busted. Then top it of with him and his wife crying about her Target experience. And observe how he ignores black on black crime.


    Prove me wrong on any of it.

    The Democrats did start the KKK but they were conservatives.

    I looked up the claim about Al Sharpton and found Rudy Giuliani claiming he visited the White House around 85 times (based on what evidence and how does that prove Obama himself is a race pimp as you claim).

    This article claims it is an exaggeration especially since Giuliani was claiming Sharpton is a closer adviser of Obama.

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs...ite-house-invited-al-sharpton-up-to-85-times/

    I see nothing wrong with Obama's comments post Zimmerman verdict or post Ferguson. Quote him and explain how they are inappropriate and "race pimping."

    Michelle Obama's comments are not Barack Obama's comments so that's irrelevant.

    You can make an argument for that with Roosevelt. Even Andrew Breitbart would have agreed with you on that one. But I'd really like to hear how you believe Lincoln to be a progressive.


    You do realize this is all Democrat propaganda aimed at making you forget their dirty history, right? Look, I get it. If I were a Democrat, I wouldn't want that history either. But you don't get to trade histories with somebody else just because you don't like yours. Just own it up to your past mistakes and do your best to make amends for them. That's what people of character and integrity do. Do Democrats have these things? Actions speak louder than words.


    Are you aware of what a bigoted and out of touch world you live in?

    Do you realize that not one single Democrat alive today is responsible for the founding of the Ku Klux Klan? The Democratic Party is not the same as it was back then. That's like telling you as a White American (assuming you are a White American) need to own up to your past mistakes and make amends for the history of White American racism. You can say that you're ashamed of that history or not proud of it but taking responsibility for it when you had nothing to do with it is a stretch to far, wouldn't you agree?

    You know what's funny about this? That history of "White American racism" you're talking about here is exact same racist history of the Democratic party I was referring to. So why should I feel guilty for your history? My people fought and died to free the slaves. Your people fought and died to keep them as slaves (assuming you are a Democrat). As you said, why should I take responsibility for something I had nothing to do with?

    "My people" were the slaves who were treated as subhumans for hundreds of years so don't associate me with American racism just because I'm a Democrat. That is highly offensive. You shouldn't take responsibility for something from the past and shouldn't take credit either.

    The history of White American racism is not the history of the Democratic Party. There were racists on both sides and Democrats are far more progressive and Egalitarian than Republicans today.

    The post you are referring to is pure ill informed opinion. No facts at all and rather silly and trite.

    ya it's really stupid logic...I've an ancestor who killed thousands, removing heads by the hundreds, he also did a lot of good things that shape our world today but for me to feel remorse for his misdeeds or credit for his accomplishments would be stupid and simple minded...

    Lincoln was extremely progressive for his time and was anything but a "right winger" as you intimated in the post I responded to. It was a very progressive idea to write and sign the emancipation proclamation. He also used the extremely progressive and brilliant tactic of going around the banking cartel and printing up interest free US Treasury Notes instead of borrowing money from foreigners to fight the Civil War. I wish we had a Republican or a Democrat who was that "progressive " now. Teddy Roosevelt was the classic example of a progressive as he realized that using governmental power to accomplish great advances for the people was a great idea. Eisenhower who sponsored a huge undertaking in the '50s using taxes collected mostly from the super rich, (top tax rate was over 70%) to build the then state of the art US Interstate Highway system could also be seen as a progressive. Ike also warned us of the "military industrial complex" which in his words would try to gain undue power over this country if not checked. Boy was he right, and ironically, it was and is the Republican Party which has become a total whore to that complex shortly thereafter.

    For the past three decades and more the GOP has become a bad joke. It's leaders and spokesmen are mostly chicken hawk war profiteers and whores to the Wall Street cabal. The Democrats are not much better but at least they have some members who are in favor of a more sane foreign policy and against the idiotic wars of the Bush years. I agree that there were not enough of them and that's why I have disassociated myself with either of the two parties.

    I would love to see either party nominate a Lincoln, a Teddy Roosevelt, an Eisenhower or a Jack Kennedy, but my guess is that we will have another crappy, Bush vs Clinton fraud and we'll continue along the same path and succeed despite our whorish puppet "leadership". However being Americans, we will manage to keep things pretty nice here and have a swell time doing it.

    Cheers and a Happy and Prosperous 2015!!
