Which Party promoted the KKK? THE DEMOCRATS!

So you posted a story about how Fox news edits videos in order to change the meaning and get people fired?  Is that why Fox is the greatest media outlet ever?

actually no. This is about AMERICAN citizens. NOT just terrorists.

Soooo, the whole thread just went down like this:
FE: The Democrats support the KKK!
Everyone Else: Uhm, no. Here's the full story and why you're full of crap

FE: Look! The NAACP is racist! The USDA director of rural development in Georgia was racist against a white man!
Everyone Else Why didn't you post the whole video? That seems taken out of context and furthermore, it seems as if she's telling a story about learning what it means to overcome her own deeply rooted issues with race, and how we all struggle with these issues no matter what race, creed or color. And how the farmers in rural Georgia overcame their racial issues before many others in this country did
FE Nuh UH! Oh! And here's some stuff that you've all already seen and talked about concerning the executive branch having a hit-list. Not that ANY Republican would EVER have one of those.....
FE: Oh, and here's the whole video... guess you guys were right and she said something she probably shouldn't have... but I still hate her because she's talking about the disparity between classes. So that makes you guys still wrong.


Aaaaannnnddddd if anyone recalls what I said in an earlier post about FE switching gears whenever he gets called out rather than admitting he's wrong.... this thread is just another example.

The Democratic party is the party of "racists", that is what they do. They promoted racial divides in the past the same way they promote racial divides today. It is all about class warfare, shoot the "journolist" revelation that the way to get everyone off jeremiah wright was to just call Karl Rove "racist"...   http://dailycaller.com/2010/07/20/documents-show-media-plotting-to-kill-stories-about-rev-jeremiah-wright/   I realize your reading comprehension can't allow multiple things to be tied together in your mind, and you already have your mind made up about "who" I am, so you won't be able to understand what I am typing. But, I will point out the flaws in your post anyway, because that is what I do. FE: Look! The NAACP is racist! The USDA director of rural development in Georgia was racist against a white man! Everyone Else Why didn't you post the whole video? That seems taken out of context and furthermore, it seems as if she's telling a story about learning what it means to overcome her own deeply rooted issues with race, and how we all struggle with these issues no matter what race, creed or color. And how the farmers in rural Georgia overcame their racial issues before many others in this country did     I love the "everyone else" part of this... Jmac3 the most unreliable "debater" on here posted what a blog told him to say... No one backed him on it... at all. No matter, we can all read, and you are clearly just making stuff up... so go ahead.   You need to go back and reread what I wrote about the USDA director when I posted it.   done it yet?... Yeah, I wrote nothing, I just posted the video. You make assumptions about how I feel about it, and in this case you were totally wrong as usual. Maybe if you are going to hang me at my words... YOU should quote my words instead of MAKING THEM UP...   Naa, that isn't your style, you make preconceived judgement and then hang the person on your perspective of what they WOULD feel about something...   hmm, that is exactly what Obama did in this case... He assumed based on the video I posted that this lady was a huge racist. (Actually, we could all agree that if that video were by itself it would be clearly racist) Except context matters.   Not to the left, as they lie all the time, and this is what breitbart was doing, he was letting the left do what they do, and they did.   Pretty funny actually, as he used their exact same tactics against them and they fell right into the trap.   They have done this same tactic many times over the years, when in America we are supposted to be innocent until PROVEN guilty.  Not in politics, a video comes out (november surprise) people are destroyed, without the facts... and the democratic party is almost always behind it... Except breitbart plays them like a fiddle, because he knows they will go off without the facts. just like you did.   You, along with the President don't wait, you just make assumptions, even when over time they prove that you "acted stupidly"...   Do you apologize for lying and putting words in my mouth... Nope, anything to discredit me is OK to you, because the ends justify the means.   Nice character.   FE Nuh UH! Oh! And here's some stuff that you've all already seen and talked about concerning the executive branch having a hit-list. Not that ANY Republican would EVER have one of those.....   I started posting in October of 2008. So I missed any threads in 2006. Also, Bush talked about doing this, but never activated it. Obama has this ongoing and active. Which you would know if you read the article I linked.   Big difference, especially when this case (hmm, they are tied together in my mind... that is weird, not just irrelevant like you tried unsuccessfully to hang me with...) shows that the President reacts without the evidence in more than one case. We have the issues with the police officer and Obama's friend (acted stupidly, hmm, no wonder I used that phrase in this thread before...see the link now?) and the case where Obama put out the hit that the tea party is racist, using the NAACP for his dirty work... And this case where he had Sherrod FIRED resign before all the facts came out.   Sad part is, NAACP HAD the complete video... They could have checked it before they threw one of their own under the bus. But, they didn't... why?...   Three instances where the Administration was wrong, and this is the same guy that decides "which" American citizen he can just murder... with no trial or evidence, just HIS determination that they are bad.   I don't trust his judgement, and no where in the constitution does he have the authority to subvert the rule of law, and murder people without a trial. FE: Oh, and here's the whole video... guess you guys were right and she said something she probably shouldn't have... but I still hate her because she's talking about the disparity between classes. So that makes you guys still wrong.     More examples of you putting words in my mouth to make me look bad...     Pathetic. Aaaaannnnddddd if anyone recalls what I said in an earlier post about FE switching gears whenever he gets called out rather than admitting he's wrong.... this thread is just another example.

It there is one forum member on here that is a hardcore leftist liberal, it's Tallen.

The Democratic Party was the one who supported the KKK.  But you ignore the whole party ideological switch that has happened.  It was the conservatives who supported the KKK. Those same conservatives, after the realignment, roundly switched party affiliation to the Republican Party.  Thus is why your deep south states: Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, etc., are all considered to be unwavering red states now.  Trying to say that the Democratic Party is still the same party as the KKK is quite silly. And ignoring history.

As stated before, this is once again common knowledge often taught in most high school history classes and most political science classes in college. The political realignment of the 1960s and 1970s is one of the most well documented shifts of platform ideals since the death of the Whig party. Democratic candidates even nominated KKK leaders as Supreme Court justices before public outrage. However, as whale pointed out, these conservative democrats made a leap to the Republican party which still has some of those members today. Although I am not advocating that the Republican party as a whole supports the KKK.

Tallen, when I come to DC, I shall shake your hand for this thread.
