Actually, it is the Democrats who have a very long history of bigotry, not the GOP.

May 1866: The Ku Klux Klan was formed in Pulaski, Tennessee by ex-confederate Democrats.

July 30, 1866: New Orleans’ Democrats ordered police to raid an integrated GOP meeting, killing 40 people and injuring 150. Also in 1866, 94 percent of GOP senators and 96 percent of GOP House members approved the 14th Amendment, guaranteeing all Americans equal protection of the law. Every congressional Democrat voted “No.”

April 1987: Former confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest organizes the Men of Justice, the Pale Faces, the Constitutional Union Guards, the White Brotherhood, and the Order of the White Rose under the Ku Klux Klan and becomes the first Grand Wizard.

April 20, 1871: The GOP Congress adopted the Ku Klux Klan Act, banning the pro-Democrat domestic terrorist group.

Feb. 8, 1894: Democratic President Grover Cleveland and a Democratic Congress repealed the GOP’s Enforcement Act, thus denying black voters federal protection.

Jan. 26, 1922: The House adopted a GOP bill to make lynching a federal crime. Filibustering Senate Democrats killed the measure.

Aug. 17, 1937: Republicans opposed Democratic President Franklin Roosevelt’s Supreme Court nominee, Sen. Hugo Black, D-AL, a former Klansman who defended Klansmen against race-murder charges.

Sept. 24, 1957: Eisenhower deployed the 82nd Airborne Division to desegregate Little Rock’s government schools over the strenuous resistance of Democratic Gov. Orval Faubus.

July 2, 1964: Democratic President Johnson signed the 1964 Civil Rights Act after former Klansman Robert Byrd’s 14-hour filibuster and the votes of 34% of Senate Democrat majority failed to scuttle the measure.

Present Day: The Democrats’ Klan-coddling today is embodied by KKK alumnus Robert Byrd, West Virginia’s logorrheic senator.

So whenever a Democrat sees a black Republican or any minority that dissents from their Marxist position they cannot help but demonstrate their bigotry. The Democrat Party is clearly the Party of Hate, and always has been.

Here - Obama even said he didn't have enough experience himself! BARACK OBAMA RULES OUT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT DUE TO LACK OF EXPERIENCE « Digital Press
You whats so funny about your post is that Bush was a governor and a businessman and he STILL screwed up the country, is this the type of experience that you are talking about?

The only flaw in what you stated is that if you threaten someone before you actually do anything it makes it harder to get to them

this is for the individuals that may feel that they can label me a "libby" whatever that is suppose to mean. I like many independent thinking people do not subscribe to any one party (actually I believe that there should be more) I'm conservative on some issues and more open on others, but like rational people I believe that thinking about the FULL repercussions of any action before acting upon it is the sign of an reasonable person and is not swayed easily by stupidity or by someone else's lack of notable brain function.

YAWN.

Try thinking for yourself instead of having your opinions, and fears, spoonfed to you by the media.

BTW, ACORN is first and foremost a Community Organization.

That is very interesting. Don't forget that Fred Phelps is a democrat.

At least these sheepeople have educated their selves and realize this HEALTH REFORM is nothing but a cover for a bigger plan. YOU tell me why the HELL would they want to tell us how to potty train our children and the most appalling thing is asking our vets when they come home injured how they want to die. BOTH of these are family decisions and FAMILY alone. This HEALTH REFORM is a WOLF in SHEEP clothing and the AMERICAN PEOPLE know it you need to step in line and learn the facts.

As I see it, you are the sheepeople, following the wrong SHEPHERD!!!!
