That's it folks, keep squabbling over party politics. Democrat or Republican, it doesn't matter anymore. They're only in it for the money. None of them give a crap about you or the vanishing middle class.

As long as they can bamboozle people and keep redirecting the blame......... it doesn't matter which party is in power because it's always "the other guy's fault", we're going to be stuck with a system that's only growing more corrupt with each passing year.

So keep pointing fingers and arguing amongst yourselves. That's exactly what they ALL want you to do. Behind closed doors, those buggers are thick as thieves.

Ah... every member of the Court who heard Plessy v Ferguson was a Republican appointee. Just say'n.

False.

Chief Justice Melville Fuller, Associate Justice Edward White, and Associate Justice Rufus Peckham were appointed by President Grover Cleveland. Do you really think that Cleveland was a Republican?

They all voted with the majority in Plessy. The only dissent came from Associate Justice John Harlan, appointed by Republican President Rutherford B. Hayes.

Why do Democrats always lie?

Nothing to white wash Yesterday's Dems. are today's GOP.

In My lifetime nothing that the progressive wing of the GOP in 1905 pushed, would even be discussed.

Suggest reading " The Bully Pulpit" by Kearns Goodwin.

Yep, keep repeating the same tired old false mantra pushed by your political masters. Don't you guys ever get embarrassed by your lack of critical thinking?

Nope, an honest mistake made in haste, and for that I apologize.

He had black friends on Facebook, I guess that makes him a Republican.

If you have the nerve to have an actual debate on the history of racism .. instead of spewing nonsense, allow me to participate.

You have No facts, No knowledge, Nothing other than rhetoric, spewed as if you were an MSNBC myna bird!
