If they had the same political power then, that they have now.<br /><br />"They were patriots, driven by love for their fellow countrymen and a burning desire to make America a better place for all it's citizens".<br /><br />Nonsense. Even then, the civil rights movement was Afro-centric. They were driven by a burning desire to make America a better place for blacks, with no such concern for poor whites of similar circumstances. It wasn't an American civil rights movement, it was a Black civil rights movement.<br /><br />What we are seeing is decades of simmering resentment, focused on what blacks have always believed was white privilege, fueled by a president with similar beliefs. <br /><br />Obama is making black bigotry not just fashionable, but de rigeur, and I expect the hatred to continue, unabated, ultimately focusing on any and all whites, be they democrat or republican.AppraisHernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26737277598840630.post-63780649758491463642012-05-18T09:27:34.740-04:002012-05-18T09:27:34.740-04:00The word for these spin doctors is poverty pimps. ...The word for these spin doctors is poverty pimps.
