More 'neocons' voted for the Civil Rights Act in 1964 by percentage than did the party you belong to. Not to mention it was a Republican that freed them in the first place.

Neocon shmeocon.

Yeah, only LINCOLN would have been horrified and repulsed by the religious right...

What the Republican party has morphed into in the past few decades hardly resembles Lincoln's party....

He would have shot himself in the back of the head before he would have stayed in today's Republican party.

That being said, Republican President DID kick off the Civil Rights Movement...








































Eisenhower doesn't get the credit he deserves...

What about the Democratic party? I'm sure John Kennedy would be proud, huh?

Yeah, but Truman deserves some props for desegregating the military. That could be considered the beginning.

Truman wasn't really a Democrat by today's standard. No Democrat today would have the gonads to drop a nuke on another country.

No, I think he'd be pretty pissed off about the pussification of the party caused by the DLC. Aside from that, he'd probably kick Arlen Spector's ass for the "Magic Bullet" theory, and then head up to Kennebunkport with Bobby to even up a certain score.

George W Bush....yes, George W Bush has placed more blacks in positions of power than ANY President ever.....

The insults hurled at him (the President), and if you can't see that they were insults hurled at him then your an idiot, were COMPLETELY out of place at a funeral....

Love or hate the President, the office itself IS important, and letting potshots by any party go unchecked is ridiculous...

Bush showed more character today in the Spirit of tolerance than those that hurled the insults...period...

You can dislike, or even hate the President, but I can't sit back and call the behavior today appropriate...it sucked....

Ford, history channel did a show on the "magic bullett" and concluded through today's technological ability to replicate the exact shot, that one bullett could have done exactly whatvthe Warren Commission decided years ago...unbiased Australlian scientists did the shot exactly into replicated torsos of Kennedy and Connelly...the result almost exactly the same as the Warren Commission report....

I would even send you a copy of the DVD.....interesting vid

Kennedy, a Democrat who actually believed in tax cuts. Amazing!

You mean he placed a four-star general as Secretary of State? Say, where did Powell go anyway?

he wasn't insulted actually. Policies were, you know, like COINTELPRO?

Yeah, cause BUSH's lackeys have never fired potshots at every opportunity, like KARL ROVE that has claimed that "liberals want to help terrorists"...

Bush showed more character today in the Spirit of tolerance than those that hurled the insults...period...

What a hero! I'm sure he had a choice...

Um dude, they mentioned a couple of his policies (indirectly), and one of which touched Dr. KING personally....
