Gravatar"vicous anti-lynching"


GravatarHoly shite!

In what states is an anti-lynching provision "bad politics." Shit, I never want to go there.


GravatarWhat can we do to expose the senators who refused to have their names associated with this resolution?

Would doing so offend The Two Bad Joes' sensibilities about bipartisanship?


GravatarA resolution condemning lynchings based on race is a pretty radical thing; I can see why a lot of Senators might not want to spend their political capital on such a wild-eyed thing.

Let me guess which party they're from.

Yeah. I'm guessing they're all Repukes?

This is the party that is making "inroads" into the black community?

Sheesh.


GravatarIn what states is an anti-lynching provision "bad politics."

You know how that "Mississippi Burning" trial is starting?


GravatarIn what states is an anti-lynching provision "bad politics." Shit, I never want to go there.

next thing you know, those uppity nigras will be able to vote and sit anywhere they want on the bus and marry white women.

It's a slippery slope. You gotta make a stand somewhere.

But seriously... would it be THAT hard to suss out who the Pro-Lynching 12 are???

They would likely come from southern states.

Most (hopefully ALL) would be Republicans.

Shouldn't be hard to make an educated guess who they are.


GravatarYou know how that "Mississippi Burning" trial is starting?

ay-yup. you think The Lynch Mob of 12 don't want to sway potential jurors?


GravatarHow much you wanna bet Crazy
Andy Sullivan is against the
resolution?


GravatarAnd what a tactful response to the disinterrment of Emmett Till! Boy howdy our representatives are some pickins....


GravatarFormer Secretary of Defense Cohens wife was on teevee talking about this.
I wonder if there's a way somebody can ask her who it is. I bet she knows. She looked mighty pissed.


GravatarLet me guess which party they're from.
Nim -7:58 pm


they'da likely been southern Democrats, mebbe one or two from a border stade like indiana or kentucky...


GravatarI'm sure the pro-lynching 12 were just standing up against activist judges.


Gravatarin 50-60 years the senate can apologize for the sarcastic patronizing of minorities to attempt to help raise their abysmal approval ratings.


GravatarPerhaps we could just ask. Or ask some journalists to ask. Couldn't hurt. So give your Senators a call, please.


GravatarYou know how that "Mississippi Burning" trial is starting?

Ah, Mississippi. Law school friend from Mississippi would cringe every time we read a con law case about something doing something horrible to black people and/or women. SHe was worried it would have happened in Mississippi.

It usually had.


GravatarThey are guaranteed to be Republicans, because if they were Democrats the news would have already leaked to FOX News by now, and we'd be listening to 24/7 of Hannity lecturing the Dems on how racist they are.

The fact that this is being kept hush-hush is a good indicator of what party the perps belong to.


Gravatardear friend of mine's from Mississippi. i always say that the day he left Jackson (which he did as soon as he hit 1, the cumulative IQ dropped precipitously.


GravatarGonna stick my neck waaaay out here and guess that Thad Cochran is on that list.


GravatarOT

Nancy Grace’s head just exploded into a million particles of light. Then a creepy looking monster, just like in Alien, poked its head out of the large hole in Nancy’s throat. It screamed at the guests, and then ran across the desk and disappeared for ever.

Ok, I’m lying, but you know you want to see it happen.


GravatarRIGHT NOW ON THE ABC NEWS SITE:

Senate Apologizes for Lynching-Ban Delays

The picture of Mary Landrieu shaking hands with a descendant of a lynching victim is hung upside down. Quite symbolic for the particular story.


GravatarAh, Mississippi. Law school friend from Mississippi would cringe every time we read a con law case about something doing something horrible to black people and/or women. SHe was worried it would have happened in Mississippi.

It usually had.


Back in Ye Olde College Days, a friend of mine was talking to a fellow student, who was black, about where they might head to graduate school. The guy mentioned that he wasn't looking at any southern school. My friend asked why not. His response: "Because I'm black, you idiot!"

I meant it openly, honestly and without any regrets for any and all Klansmen and women.

GravatarIsn't there a procedure in the senate that can force a roll call vote? I would think that Reid should say he isn't going to do it then do it and catch them all with that 'got caught fucking the neighbor's cat' look on their face when they have to give their names and votes.

That's it Reid. Screw them to the wall if you can. No more Mr. Nice guy shit.

GravatarAnyone know what the rules are on requiring a roll call vote? I think all it takes is one Senator to request it.

If the Senate is not willing to have a roll call vote on this resolution, it is hardly reassuring. The Senate is coddling members who don't have the courage to apologize for past Senates not having the courage to pass an anti-lynching legislation. Real exercise in courage.

GravatarWasn't it 16 years AFTER the 1964 debate that Saint Ronnie kicked off his campaign in Philadelphia, MS?

As I recall, it was not a predominantly black audience, but I'm sure Schwa can clear that up (assuming, of course, that Limbaugh gave him talking points on this subject; otherwise it's back to the drool cup).

GravatarHonestly.
If the dems can't see this as an excellent election year topic and exploit it by doing everything they can to embarrass the rethugs then they deserve to lose.
Maybe Dean should walk the halls and cheerlead them on? Perhaps he should call a press conference at the senate chambers while they are having the vote and then as the senate rethugs are leaving he can rush up to each of them while the cameras are rolling and ask them all how they voted?
Someone should damn well take advantage of this for some cheap press but valuable press!
Dean should see this as a chance for donors to see who they are donating to. It's also the chance to add up the tally sheet and throw at the fundies the fact they're supporting a bigot who endorses the murdering of african americans.

Gravatarsteve simels | 06.13.05 - 8:24 pm |

A bunch of Jim Crow crackers who dominated the DNC as much as they dominated the GOP in the 1960's. Slowly, ever so slowly that is changing.

For the Democrats the old crackers, like Byrd, repudiated the white racist days. For the Republicans, like William Rehnquist, they got jobs for life on the courts back in the racist Nixon era and so we still suffer their debilitating effects on our great nation.

This puts the Democrats one step ahead of the Republicans on the social evolutionary scale of American politics. but their continued support of the Jim Crow Drug War keeps them from leaping ahead of the GOP and evolving into civilized homo-sapiens.

"For Example he drove Five-Star General Omar Bradley and remembered meeting the Wolrd War II hero on several occasions."


Just had to put in an old timer's name, this one goes out to WGG and the all atriots who served...(local legion newsletter)

"He drove for Saddam Hussein when Hussein came to visit several Iraqia who were training here in the united STates."


Hmmm. Interesting. Indeed.

The soldier served from 64 to 86. of course Jimmy Carter put Saddam on a no-trade list for his human rights record.

The only other POTUS he served under were (gasp) Republicans.

You don't suppose that was the 80s leg of his Saddam Chauffer assignemnt?

GravatarSpeaking of Truman, some advice to Dems who think we can win elections by being mealy-mouthed "Republican-lite" centrists:

Give the people a choice between a Republican and a [Democrat who acts like a] Republican and they will choose the Republican every time.

Even when a GOP-lite moderate wins (e.g. Clinton), it doesn't build the party in the long term ... and more likely voters will prefer the genuine article to the fake.

We Dems. are always gonna be labeled as liberal even if Zell Miller is the face of our party (and zig-zag-Zell's a flip-flopper, too) -- so we might as well embrace our brand and sell it: let's stop trying to embrace the center and get the center back on our side!

GravatarIn 2005, as opposed to 1964, it is the Republicans throwing a white sheet over the vote so as to shield a dozen guys who find it politically awkward to apologize for lynching.

And even in 1964, only one party's presidential candidate was against the Civil Rights Act. Seeing as how LBJ signed the Act, guess which party that was.

Gravatarspinoza

yes, re-affirming the Constitutional supremacy of the elected C-in-C. Truman turned out to be a great and good president. too bad we don't prosecute war profiteers anymore, or even hold them in the utter contempt WWII citizens did.


Gravatartoo bad we don't prosecute war profiteers anymore, or even hold them in the utter contempt WWII citizens did.

Don't most countries have, like, a national memory? Or am I romanticizing?

Whoa big boy....
Put the remote down and turn away from the television S L O W L Y.


Now, take a deep breath,and repeat after me.

I will not watch television news anymore.

There,better?


GravatarIt's too hot to flirt.

No AC?

If so, that is unAMERICAN. No wonder you hang with these liberal elitists!


GravatarHey Atrios,
thanks to whomever for the Matthews show Media Matter item. The show was revolting.

I panicked!

Black Quaka hats, brims way down low.

OMFG, LOL.


GravatarBe happy, Vinnie. No conviction means no appeal. No Martha Stewart-style prison reporting. In 24 hours, MJackson is yesterday's news.

Now if we can find all the missing white women, we're that much closer to...

Aw, forget it.


Gravataryou're romanticizing again eli. stop it.

I don't understand what you are saying at all.

Thanks, Thers.

NTodd - what'd you say was in that bottle you've fallen into?

No, I have AC, it's just not

Well, not necessarily, I possess a pretty fine vault. However I do know the answer to the question.

Our troops would paint themselves blue before battle?


GravatarRes Ipsa - I just love that.


"So Bill Clinton was on the grassy knoll fucking Mrs. Kruschev? Ah now I understand what is meant by the "second shooter."

I have a window unit that keeps the Res boudoir cool, which is very important.

I grew up in a meat locker. My dad kept the joint at about 60 degrees year-round. He'd call from work sometimes, about two hours before coming home and say, "Crank that thing up, Res." Now I am addicted.


GravatarThe damp chill has already taken a toll on my closing HTML tags.


GravatarHomebrew AC, as featured on slashdot.


GravatarSadly, No. They voted one way for national tickets, the other way locally... - Mr.Murder

Actually, the bigger problems are (1) thanks to the New Deal (which the Southern Conservatives hated, even as they tried to take advantage of it) the South was brought into the first world, more or less, so now more people live there so it is harder to win the Presidency / control the House without it; (2) the progressive/populist Midwestern vote has disappeared -- either because we are too socially liberal (as the Heathers claim), because we need to be more economically liberal (Frank's thesis?) or simply because the kind of person who lived in the Plains/Midwest when it was still somewhat of a frontier is different than the kind of person who's living there now; and (3) the Republicans had the money and political prowess to be a regional party controlling the national government then but we Dems. don't have the same support of big money (although, as some have pointed out, there are many within the Hollywood/Silicon Valley wing of the Dem. party that sound an awful lot like Gilded Age Republicans in political terms) and good political hacks to do so now.

Even if we cannot win in the South, we'll need to rekindle some serious Prairie fire and get some serious money and logistical support on our side to win. A fair share of the media actually being on our side would help too!


GravatarPilar Ternera

Happy B-Day Flory.


GravatarFortunately, I know where it hides.

Does Arthur know?

Kent™ Embigulator - If I tell you, you'll tell him. That's no way to keep a secret!
GWPDA, Irate Scholar


Arthur knows. He told me he cut a deal with the feral burros.


GravatarDAS --

Long time no contact -- but we still agree on everything (Jesus was aliberal Jew) -- I have ALWAYS loved that quotation from Truman -- I quote it more than any other (closely followed by the story of his telling the WH press corps that the way to get good roses was to use lots & lots of manure -- so one of them said the Bess, "You ought to get him to stop saying 'manure' & say 'fertilizer'" & Bess said, "You don't know how hard I worked to get him to say 'manure'!"


GravatarHey Flory! Happy Birthday!


GravatarIn 1948 at the Democratic Convention, Hubert Horatio Humphrey gave an empassioned speech called "A Plea For Civil Rights" Excellent reading today. (From memory so likely a bit off)"It is high time for the Democratic Party to get out from the shadows of state's rights and into the bright sunshine of human rights."
Essentially, if we want to proclaim ourselves to be the leaders of the free world, than we had better get our house in order.


GravatarOur troops would paint themselves blue before battle?

And go commando under their kilts?


GravatarIs the current Jacko-related frontpage at Drudge a not-so-subtle implication that a lynching is in order, or am I imagining things ???


GravatarArthur knows. He told me he cut a deal with the feral burros.

flory - Did UPS make their delivery to your place yet?


GravatarIt's a gorgeous 58 here, light northwesterly breeze, perfectly clear sky.

Happy Birthday!!!!


GravatarAmerica, the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Oh, wait... that's just lip service. My bad. It's still important in a few places to be pro-lynching if you want to be elected.

Have I mentioned lately how much I hate these people?


GravatarIs the current Jacko-related frontpage at Drudge a not-so-subtle implication that a lynching is in order, or am I imagining things ???

GravatarSteve--we saw two mongooses on St. Johns, skittering across the road, one after the other--i believe it's mating season. Lots of iguanas and geckos, too!

The only other time I happened upon a mongoose was at the Mongoose Junction, a pretentious and overpriced shopping plaza on St. Johns, but we recovered at the West TX Shoreline BBQ, which is the epitome of what a dive should be, right down to the chickens cruising the yard.


GravatarHappy birthday Flory!


GravatarIsh. I'm on my way back to Dallas tomorrow. I envy you.


Nooooooooooooo!

You DONT want to do that!I promise.It is plain miserable here.95 degrees and about 75-80 percent humidity.

Bletch!


GravatarWhat can I bring to the library to wake me up?

Don't laugh!
Stand up and place your right palm over your bellybutton. Take your left hand up to your neckline. Place your index finger under one collar bone and your thumb under the other. Rub along the bone line just below in that soft area. Breath evenly and deeply while you do so. Keep it up for about three minutes than switch hands and go for three more minutes. Once done raise your right knee up and touch your left hand to your knee. Alternate hands and knees for about three minutes. Drink a bunch of water and if you begin to get tired again, go with the bellybutton thing agian. Sound nuts, it works.


GravatarRes Ipsa--i am combining some vanilla sugar with some lavender, rosemary and almond oil. Breathe deeply!


GravatarRIL:
Rosemary is refreshing and good for alertness.

Gravataryou don't want me living in your neighborhoods where you have the best of services

you don't want me going to your schools with your kids where you get the best of education

you don't want me to be a fireman, cop, bricklayer, or any of the blue colar jobs traditionally held by white males because they belong to white males

you don't want me to have any white colar job which might get me anywhere in this world because all those things belong to white men

you don't want affirmative action because it takes away slots white kids might get, which is why you keep me in the ghetto with its' poorly performing schools

and you expect me to accept an apology for not protecting me from possibly seeing or hearing of relatives lynched

what use would your damned apology serve towards erasing more than a hundred plus years of whites stomping out the culture of blacks, of keeping us down and continuing to do so? You all didn't tell that fox bastard exactly why the sweet, prideful and dignified hispanic could get the work did you? You didn't tell that bitch that whites have been responsible for all the above situations of blacks in this country, that whites have kept them out of jobs, housing, schools, and higher education now, did you? And that you still do?

Well, my attitude is this; fuck a damned apology and damned horse it rode in on.

Reparations?

on to him!!!!!


GravatarWe have nerds? I thought this was geek central.

No, no - I can't even *remember* the last time I bit the head off a chicken.

Oh, jeebus. The definitions have morphed again...

OK - for the benefit of the AARP members-in-waiting:

Geek= ?


GravatarYou go, girlfriend.


GravatarHey, nerds and geeks are the best. Monsieur is a metrosexual geek-nerd


GravatarHey Toby "Mohammedan Menace"
Petzold:

On your piece of shit blog
today you called Michael
Jackson a faggot.

What's the matter -- I'm not
good enough to call the same
thing?


GravatarGWPDA,

I would do that, but the guys in the IP dept change it at irregular intervals just to make my life difficult. We have a long-running feud that stems from the time they "upgraded" my computer one night in the middle of a pleading-drafting frenzy and I, well, I threw a few things. So far, I've always managed to outsmart them. They know I'm lying about needing it, but they don't know WHEN I'm lying. Cheating them out of their ability to control things gives my poor life meaning....

Think Ashley Judd in Ya-ya Sisterhood tricking the gas station guy.


GravatarVOODOO TOBY PETZOLD!!

GravatarCome on, Toby
"Mohammedan Menace" Petzold:

Either call me a faggot and be
done with it, or
else
answer the question:

Why are you in bed with the
official party of racism, homophobia,
theocracy, torture and murder?


Gravataroven-baked chicken or lemon fish ?


GravatarSimels:

You're the idiot who said Jackson's
fans were worse than him, thus
implicitly condoning pedophilia.


I said that Jackson's greatest crime was being what he is to others who are too stupid and brainwashed to realize that he's a fucking satanic sack of shit. If he is the leader of that cult, I say he's more cuplable than them, but not by much and in no way that really matters. They deserve each other.

And you still won't pass judgement. That is to be disrespected.


Gravatarkent,

Nope. Not doing a lick of work. However, please don't tell the IP guys.


Gravatarxegar--lemon fish.


GravatarToo hot to fuck, maybe, but too hot to flirt? Never!"

Ha!Too damn hot to work. But for fucking and flirting? Nevah!


GravatarI said I was not using that term lightly. Because it is a major slur and I reserve it for moral freaks like him.


Gravatar"And you still won't pass judgement. That is to be disrespected."

WTF ever happened to "judge not, lest ye be judged"?


GravatarNope. Not doing a lick of work. However, please don't tell the IP guys.

What if they should happen upon the comments here? 'Cuz, ya know, sometimes IPs dally.


GravatarSallyH

are you sayin YOU and your NUBILE, BLONDE TEENAGE, WHITE-GIRL DAUGHTER were on a Caribbean island, in the very eye of veritable hurricane of missing, blonde white girls, and you didn't immediately return to the safety of the land where missing white women matter more than life itself???

child abuse, gawdamn it...guards, impale that woman...


GravatarToby "Mohammedan Menace" Petzold:

So I'm right.
You're saying that people who
bought "Thriller" are worse
than pedophiles.

Fucking comedy gold.

No answer the goddamn question:
why are you in bed with the official
party of racism, homophobia,
theocracy, torture and murder?


GravatarToby,

Could you please go home now and let the grown-ups have a conversation? I'm asking nicely. And, don't use the word "satanic" when you don't understand what it means. Now, shoo, go home.


Gravatar

Nice one Jazzlady50

However, I think I'll do some recreational ironing and then find something to read. Hmmmmm, maybe a little Goldhagen.

Nighty-night.


GravatarToby thinks Michael Jackson is a "satanist".

Toby, do you ever put that skull jelly of yours to good use? Maybe you could donate it for scietific experiments or something.

You are utterly fascinating, in a frozen-turd-falling-from-the-sky kind of way.

If anybody is wondering why

We await his views on the

GravatarSince this is pretty much a de facto open thread now, perhaps I should blogwhore for my eloquent disquisition (okay, fine: inarticulate rant) about why maybe we shouldn't get too excited about impeachment?

Seems like there hasn't been much impeachment talk tonight, so maybe y'all already read it.

Good point!


GravatarWell, my attitude is this; fuck a damned apology and damned horse it rode in on.


I have to agree.What does the government think its getting when it "makes an apology"?Do they think they get relief from all the black voters?Do they think the blacks will "forgive and forget"?

Just what IS the motivation here?

GravatarI have trouble with the whole idea of a "voice vote" in Congress for anything but procedural matters, and sometimes not even then. The secret ballot is for us, not them. Congress is, in so many ways, America's place where the sun don't shine.

Gravatarsteve's right; I was there. Toby's quaking in his boot over the "Mohamadean Menace."

Toby's father looked under the bed every night for Reds. Toby's grandfather worried about the Yellow Peril, and Toby's greatgrandfather was scared of the Irish Immigrants -- Papists! Back in the day, Toby's ancestors were also terrified of the marauding Huns, the witches, and the gypsies.

The Petzolds have always been easily controlled by the leaders of their day -- just throw up a boogie man and the Petzolds quake in fear and salute.

Toby, funny how they never run out of boogie men, isn't it?

This is because very small dust particles in the Martian atmosphere appear blue when they reflect sunlight.When the Sun is lower in the sky, there are more bits of dust for the light to get through, so it appears blue.

just had a thought: if reid can't force a voice vote, maybe tomorrow he can have a little sunrise event on the steps...wherein everyone that claims to have voted yes can show up and say a little prayer for the wicked bastards that didn't.

Ooo, I remember those! I worked in the government documents library at college - NASA and FBI were my favorite sections!

I also liked the How To Speak Swahili guide in the Peace Corps section, starring Rip and Moondog.


GravatarCould a knowledgeable parliamentarian explain something to me?

I understand that some of these jerks do not want a roll call vote where their names are recorded as voting for the anti-lynching resolution. However, doesn't a vote still have to take place and if so if the resolution passes unanimously then those fearful of offending the kkk will have obviously voted for the resolution. Right?

So does someone move to pass it by unanimous consent, someone else seconds it and nobody objects so the resolution passes without there being a real vote?

How does it work?

Therefore you called him
a faggot because
you're a homophobe.

Gravatarbigvic, the way Strom and Jesse went on about how it wasn't right to have a MLK Day, I'm amazed that they're not backing lynching outright on the House Floor.


GravatarThis is yet another reason why George Allen is on the Avenging Angel's List.

George Allen, GOP Senator (VA) and presidential hopeful, enraged the Avenging Angel this week with his cynical racial politics.

Allen is sponsoring a resolution apologizing for past Senate obstruction of anti-lynching laws. Allen's dual purpose? First, to atone for the Confederates in his own attic, including his own past display of a noose and the Stars and Bars. Second, to tar Democrats as the party of the filibuster against civil rights then and judicial nominees now.

Allen's so-called apology, the Angel notes, is like Bill Frist opening a cat shelter.


Gravatarcapt goto

GravatarWhere's the outrage? More than 1700 dead in Iraq, Afghanistan is nowhere near under control, Abu Grahib, Gitmo,SS,Buget Deficit, Plame, Gannon, 9/11, Osama STILL not in jail or dead. Now this lovely bit of polical manuevering. I need a drink.


Gravatar"and, yes, oh trolls, this is the "Democratic Ballot" because the Mississippi Democratic Party put Dixiecrat Thurmond on the ballot instead of Truman"

Maybe somebody pointed this out already...But these Dixiecrats can't really be described as Democrats. The ONLY reason these pols are Democrats is because Lincoln was a Republican(of course in no way shape or form did Lincoln's politics resemble the current thug party)and he freed those g.d slaves. They hated him for that. After LBJ signed civil rights legislation these same pols all became republicans. The politics is absolutely the same.


GravatarFor more rebel yells from the Republican Men O' the South, see:

Several possibilities:

1. Toby is too all-consumed fearing the "Mohammedan Saddammite Islamist Menace" to answer your "simple" questions. Don't you know "they" are... everywhere?

2. "Simple" is still too complicated for Toby.

3. The answer to your question is incompatible with Toby's delusional system.

Actually, I suspect that the dozen or so senators involved don't want their names on the Resolution as co-sponsors. They can always cop to "Hey, the vote happened late at night. I wasn't even there, so I couldn't have voted on the Res."


GravatarAllen's so-called apology, the Angel notes, is like Bill Frist opening a cat shelter.
Jon

Nicely put.


GravatarI believe that's true. So why are you unable to pass judgement on Jackson?

In my case, I know of, and care for none of the particulars, was not on the Jury.

I also have had the unpleasant experience, of having been accused of a crime I did not commit, and dealing with the burdon of police scrutiny on the basis of a detectives conviction, that I was in fact guilty

I have always (from long before my personal experience) committed myself to the prosumption of innocence, period.

Judge not lest Ye be judged has also resonated with me.

But go ahead and feel free to presume that everything the "distracting heads" on the TV tell ya, and keep working on that cross you and yer buddies gonna burn, when you make your rightgeous pilgramidge to Neverland.

GravatarHey, Bill, I was going to try your method of staying awake, but I fell asleep reading it. The question is, does it keep you awake after or only while doing it?

And ya know, pledge or no pledge (Toby-Ted), this Toby must be a namestealer, or the Real Toby is sitting in Dr. Lector's seat of honor at the head of the table, whilst the doc shaves more and more of his brain away to flambé and serve the guests.

I love the wingnut logic of Faux News' decline being slower than the other fascist outlets proof of the public buying the wingnut fantasies of MURKAN POWER.

GravatarOT--
but I wanted to 1. direct people who may have missed it to Kos's discussion of core values for progressives/Democrats. half a year ago I was on that and this board arguing that we really need to talk about WHY we believe what we believe, and it's nice to see that Kos has taken a little time out from bashing John Kerry for not being Howard Dean to take up this question and 2. Eric Alterman mentions--in passing!!-- that more congressional ballots were cast for Dems in 2004 than for Repubs. Anyone know where to get the source for that, and for similar info from 2002 and 2000?


Gravatar the way Strom and Jesse went on about how it wasn't right to have a MLK Day, I'm amazed that they're not backing lynching outright on the House Floor.

Those vile, rascist POS haters make my skin crawl. I read something yesterday about Helms' new book. He is still totally unwavering about his racist past. His only regret was blaming AIDS only on homos and amoral foricattors. And that only came after some nice, straight, white folks became ill.


GravatarI love you all more than
food.



Except you know who......


Gravatarmore congressional ballots were cast for Dems in 2004 than for Repubs. Anyone know where to get the source for that, and for similar info from 2002 and 2000?
Allen


I can't remember the source, but it is true that 8 million more votes were cast for Dems than Thugs. The reason is that each state gets 2 Senators and the Dems represent states that have a lot more poeple in them then, say, Montana, S. Dakota, etc. that voted ReThug. Sad, isn't it?


GravatarI understand that some of these jerks do not want a roll call vote where their names are recorded as voting for the anti-lynching resolution. However, doesn't a vote still have to take place and if so if the resolution passes unanimously then those fearful of offending the kkk will have obviously voted for the resolution. Right?


Actually not all senators have to vote. They can simply let the rest vote and abstain.
This way they can let the others vote while they neither vote 'aye' or 'nay'. This way at the end of the day if the vote is say 88-0 there are still 12 voters not present. Nobody will ever know who those 12 are.

Gravatar"the way Strom and Jesse went on about how it wasn't right to have a MLK Day, I'm amazed that they're not backing lynching outright on the House Floor."


I don't remember what rightwing blog it was, but Atrios linked to it for a separate topic. When I drifted down further onto the site I noticed a comment in the threads which suggested that Strom Thurmond was now a somewhat detested figure for being a 'nigger lover' in the literal sense. They also called him a coward for hiding his 'half-breed daughter' all these years. But I think their animosity had more to do with the fealing foolish having spent so many years admiring a man who was a coward and hypocrite. Some even mentioned their fathers being supporters of Stroms during the the dixiecrat years and would never have supported him had they known he was dipping his wick into the inkwell.

But in regards to this issue I think Trent Lott and so many others should be questioned as to whether they aren't all Strom Thurmonds with bastard children they fathered in acts of adultury with their colored housemaids, etc. This kind of questioning, bringing Thurmond into the question itself would definitely cause some eyebrow raising.

GravatarRepublicans make a big noise about how they captured the South from the Democrats.

All I can say is you're welcome to them, and good riddance. Next time they want to break away, let'em go.

GravatarPerhaps my parliamentary slip is showing. Is "voice vote" not the system where they just dig out Ted Mack's old applause meter and say "the ayes have it"? Or am I totally off here?


GravatarI don't think Rick Kaplan has been with CNN for a number of years.


GravatarWriting from Mississippi, mouth full of grits and bagel, I'll point out that James Chaney was a fellow Mississippian. There's all kinds of people down South, like anywhere, but there was a particularly awesome bunch of souls around back then. At James Chaney's funeral in '64 Dave Dennis said this, about today, about the Senate, about us.


"But what I want to talk about right now is the living death - that we have right among our midst, not only in the state of Mississippi, but throughout the nation.

Those are the people who don't care.

Those who do care, but don't have the guts enough to stand up for it.

And those people who are busy up in Washington and other places, using my freedom, and my life, to play politics with."






Amen, bro.

GravatarUse George Bush's logic against them: if you're not anti-lynching, then you must be pro-lynching.


Gravatarwell, if we had some real journalists in the MSM, they would ask every senator that they interview from now on whether they supported this resolution.

then it shouldn't be hard to figure out who the dirty dozen are.


GravatarThe South will fall again.


GravatarThanks goes to Truman and LBJ for purging the Democratic party of racists, bigots, and their off-spring du jour, the homophobes. Truman did so when he integrated the army, and LBJ ramrodded the Civil Rights Act.

The South will surely fall again. However, it'll only happen when Scaife, Coors, Moon, and Murdoch run out of money.

Sorry, but I fear we're in for a long battle, folks.


GravatarWhy the problem with trolls Atrios? Isnt that the mission statement for your blog? To do you part to f the Democratic party for moderates?


GravatarThe GOP must be so proud that Strom and company all switched to the GOP...


GravatarThe Bush administration had Condoleeza say a few words on the issue, presumably because she is the token black represents the State Department.



"Better late than never..." she said.



Of course, that implies that it *WAS* too late for many Blacks, who were victims of rascism perpetuated by Southern lawmakers for so many years. Of course, one of those rascist-coddling lawmakers was George W. Bush.



In 1998, James Byrd, Jr., a black Texan, was beaten, chained to the back of a pickup truck, and dragged for three miles. Byrd was alive for most of this horrific act, dying only when he was decapitated after his body hit a culvert. When Byrd's family came forward and begged Governor Bush to pass a hate crimes bill, he told his family no. He even refused an invitation from Jasper County, Texas, to make an appearance in support of the local community. Bush, under pressure from Democratic lawmakers, later made a halfhearted, last-minute declaration indicating he was willing to support the bill, but it was little more than a publicity stunt, and the bill was never passed, thanks to Republican lawmakers. It was only after George W. Bush left the governor's office that the Byrd family was finally able to get the new governor to strongly back and pass hate crimes legislation.



It could've been one of your relatives, Condoleeza. Hell, it could've been a fellow human being that you should naturally have empathy and compassion for. No matter what color your skin, you should have zero tolerance for hate crimes, but you've made a career out of supporting racist policies cloaked in conservative ideology.



Better never than late, Condoleeza.


GravatarJust imagine how sick it is to grow up proudly New-Deal Democratic in the South and watch the fucking Republics wink and lift their skirt at the racist bastards until the whole damn county is red with their stupidity. My only consolation is some northern Republican must be huddled in their closet today sick to their stomache and shivering as they wonder what became of the party of Lincoln.


GravatarMark - Bush and Rice are of the same stripe, ignorant racist lying whores.


GravatarKennedy, Schumer, Clinton are also racist poverty-pimping asswipes.
