Try explaining this rosy, Revisionist arse bullshite to folks that were on the wrong side of Thurmond's Segregationist policies and Government sponsored racism

Try putting yourself on the wrong side of Jim Crow Laws, the wrong side of Segregation and see how much you love the warmth of ol' Strom

This ain't about "culture wars", it is about balancing the scales of racial justice from years gone by

That's all I said. I stand by that. He was warm and engaging. He actually LOVED at least two black people. Go figure. You know, the duality of man, life comes at you fast, and all that...

As for "racial segregation", "government sponsored racism",being on "the wrong side of Jim Crow Laws" etc.-THERE IS A REASON I DO NOT VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS. Learn your history Anger Baw.
