Only one switched parties – Strom Thurman AFTER the 1964 Civil Rights
Act and 1965 Voting Rights Act were passed. Ask yourself why would Strom
Thurmond move to a party that pushed for civil and votings rights if he was
so much of a hard line racist? Can you tell me why then do the Democratic/
Liberal voters/historians never point to this. For convenience, they look
over this with dark blinders on and it’s nauseating.
Now we want to talk bout Racism let’s talk about LBJ supposed hero of
Civil Rights:
Fast forward to 1964, and the Civil Rights movement is in full swing.
Lyndon Johnson is now President after Kennedy’s Assassination. Personally I
don’t like LBJ for many reasons,however the biggest ones had to do with
him being such a derogatory person, and such a big racist. He even has been
reported to peeing on the leg of a secret service agent. When the agent
instinctively jumped back in horror and disgust, LBJ said, “That’s all
right, son. It’s my prerogative.” . In addition, LBJ biographer Robert
Caro stated that prior to 1957, Johnson, “had never supported civil rights
legislation—any civil rights legislation. In the Senate and House alike,
his record was an unbroken one of votes against every civil rights bill that
had ever come to a vote: against voting rights bills; against bills that
would have struck at job discrimination and at segregation in other areas of
American life; even against bills that would have protected blacks from
lynching.” The lynching bill he is referringto is the Civil Rights bill of
1957, Eisenhower tried to push. However then Senate MajorityLeader, Lyndon
Johnson, removed the essential “anti-lynching clause.” As if his actions
in politics weren’t already bad enough, he was so bad to his longtime black
limo chauffeur, Robert Parker, that in Parkers autobiography of his serving
in the LBJ years. “Johnson, called me ‘boy,’‘n**ger,’ or ‘chief,’
never by my name…whenever I was late, no matter what the reason, Johnson
called me a lazy, good-for-nothing n**ger. I was afraid of him because of
the pain and humiliation he could inflict at a moment’s notice.” Now why
would a man as racist, and derogatory as LBJ support Civil Rights of all
things? I believe Johnson can answer this question in his own words, “I’ll
have them n**gers voting Democratic for two hundred years.” How would it
do this? Simple by making him look like their savior,even when he appointed
a black Supreme Court Justice, Thurgood Marshall. As Johnson said to a young
staffer, “When I appoint a ni**er to the court, I want everyone to know he
is a n**ger.” We can find more quotes like these, but by now you get my
point. So in 1964 LBJ signed the Civil Rights act of 1964, which
desegregated the entire country. However there were still issues, as it
still had schools with only white people, and blacks were still
discriminated against. But the main goals of the bill were to guarantee, and
even further enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. Shortly
afterwards, there were still issues with voting rights. So the Voting Rights
act of 1965 came about. It was passed in the senate on May 26,1965, after a
successful Cloture vote on March 23. It was then passed in the house on
July 9. Finally signed by LBJ on August 6
People need to stop believing these myths and do their own research for
once.
Yes, liberals love the ‘party switched’ theory. It makes for a good
excuse because they can’t wrap their heads around the idea that Democrats
may be still holding back minorities today as they did just a couple decades
ago. Because Republicans don’t believe in illegal immigration (because
its 'illegal’) and because they don’t believe in welfare (because it
perpetuates faineance), someone they are portrayed as racists. Meanwhile,
Obama just addressed Planned Parenthood guaranteeing that it will continue
to be funded to perform mass killings in black neighborhoods across the
country.
Anytime I think of LBJ, I can’t help to recall the countless stories of him
pulling his crank out in public, pissing on the White House lawn, skinny
dipping with foreign dignitaries and shouting orders to his staff from the
commode while dropping a deuce. The guy would have made Bill Clinton
nervous. |
