As I did in response to completely, provably bogus Democrat claims about Bush 43's tax policies (and conservative tax policies in general), I've done likewise regarding The True History Of Civil Rights Advocacy. Just as I discovered about Bush 43's tax cuts and other economic matters/events during his administration, I found that the truth about civil rights advocacy is nothing like what Democrats claim. Even on their official website's history page (Democrats.org and following the menu to "About/Our History"), Democrats falsely claim they have been the leaders on civil rights for over 200 years.
Democrats claim they are and always have been the leaders in the advancement of civil rights. Never mind that they opposed the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments by a LARGE percentage up to 100%. Never mind that they strongly opposed the 19th amendment, defeating it four times over 40 years(!) before a Republican-controlled House and Senate finally assured its passage. Never mind that Democrats opposed the landmark 1964 Civil Rights Act (CRA) by a percentage that was nearly twice that of Republicans in the House and Senate. Never mind that Democrats also conducted a record filibuster against that very CRA. Never mind that Democrats opposed most "voting rights" legislation over those 200 years and only recently caught up with Republicans in their support of it.
BTW, did you know that two Black REPUBLICAN WOMEN founded the NAACP? And did you know that the KKK was founded by southern democrat separatists? Did you know that Booker T. Washington and George Washington Carver were both Republicans?
If you're interested in more detail, click here to see my YouTube version of the PowerPoint presentation I created.
Responsible living and governing has gotten a whole lot more complicated and difficult over the past couple of decades. How we choose to live and be governed matters. Letting others do our thinking for us, define us and take care of us will come at a cost I don't think we'll like.

Drinking Obama's Cool-Aid!!! Oh, Happy Ignorance!!!
On March 14th, 2013, Bill O'Reilly played two Obama speech clips for his guest, progressive professor Dr. Lamont Hill. In the first clip, presidential candidate Obama railed at Bush for the debt created under his administration by claiming what Bush did was "unpatriotic", "unsustainable" and "irresponsible". In the second clip from just two weeks ago, George Stephanopolous asked Obama how much of a problem his addition of $8 Trillion to the debt is and Obama said it was "not an immediate problem" and it IS(!) "sustainable".
Bush added $4 Trillion to the debt in EIGHT years. Obama added TWICE as much debt in HALF the time. A reasonable person applying any semblance of common sense to this must ask, if Bush's debt was unpatriotic and unsustainable what does that make Obama's debt that's twice as much in half the time? Doesn't it make Obama's debt FAR MORE UNSUSTAINABLE and doesn't that make Obama FAR MORE UNPATRIOTIC?
So, Bill asked Professor Hill why Obama's debt isn't getting criticism. Dr. Hill's response? With a smile and chuckle he said in complete seriousness, "Obama's debt is so much cooler!". Obviously that also explains all the other things President Obama has messed up policy-wise and promise-wise. He's just "COOL" by definition. So is everything he does no matter how messed up it is.
I guess that makes sense to liberals. After all they're all drinking the same "COOL-AID" that leads them to believe everything Obama does is cool by definition. It doesn't matter if this kind of cool is on track to destroy our economy and is falling far, FAR short of Obama's promises just 4 years ago. Why is there NO accountability upon this man for what he's doing? By his own declaration, he's a much(!) bigger failure than Bush. Is that no big deal? How can the left excuse that?
I SO don't understand what's going on with average citizens in our country who sit idly by in happy ignorance and complacency while our economy continues headlong into disaster under Obama's 'leadership'.

Carpal Tunnel Valor Award For Drone Operation
The Pentagon has created a Distinguished Warfare Medal for US military personnel who operate drones remote from any battlefield. And it ranks ABOVE the Purple Heart and Bronze Star that can only be earned in the face of combat.
I think it should be named the Tunnel Carpal Valor award.
What a bunch of nincompoops! In fact, a more appropriate new medal would be the Military Leadership Nincompoop award for stupidity outrageously far removed from any semblance of common sense.
