Tuesday: Nonsense. Eye witnesses. You're speculating. But decide for yourself. I know a bit of LBJ as president and he was a power hungry man. I believe the quote to be true. It totally fits his character.

Tuesday: I'm not obsessed with anything. Maybe you don't read what's current but this whole racism debate is happening right NOW. It's in the news every day. It's been an issue of the left ever since Obama ran for president.

I am Weasel: I don't doubt he said it

Jim Dandy: LBJ was one of many democratic leaders who were blatant racists.

I am Weasel: racist? I don't think he said it with malice, but it was a different time

Jim Dandy: ?? It was ok to be racist in the sixties? Slavery was a different time too. But it was still an evil practice.

I am Weasel: ok to be racist? I think that depends on ones opinion, I personally don't find it ok.Certain words did take awhile to be deemed politically incorrect though.

Tuesday: The reason it's been pounded to pieces is because you on the left refuse to accept that your party was born out of racism. It promoted, supported, and profited from racism. And they are still using race today to further their ideology. Whatever it takes, the left will do.

It's also CURRENT in the news. Don't like the topic? Don't read it or respond.

Tuesday: I'm speaking more of the leadership of the Democratic party (historically) but today, the far left uses race all the time. They look for opportunities (or as I have shown, they manufacture them) to accuse the opposition of racism. That's why the topic is important. One, to understand the roots of racism in the political parties; to be honest about it; and to call it what it is when confronted with it today.

Williams letter was NOT racist. Poor judgment, insulting, offensive. But let's NOT cheapen the meaning of racism by assigning every little thing we object to as racist. That kind of behavior IS racist. When one uses race as a club (as the far left does) they are acting racist. When someone quotes LBJ for using the "N" word, they are NOT racist (as I have been called by you and a few others here). You yourself are guilty seizing an opportunity to play the race card. It's nonsense. Racism is a particular thing and not just anything you think it is. It's not racist to say Obama is articulate. Some on the left have made this claim. It's not racist to oppose Obama. MANY on the left make this claim.

The NAACP is playing the race card. They are a racist organization. Why? Imagine a white organization that seeks only to promote the white race. That's racism.

I am Weasel:" Williams letter was NOT racist"

prove it

Jim Dandy: Don't have to do that. It's my opinion. Maybe his letter is reflective of a man who really has racist beliefs. I don't know. But reading that letter, I don't see racism. I see something else.

Tuesday: Yes go ahead. YOu said you wanted to analize who is racist. And the people who cry and cry are mostly on the left.

Tuesday: maybe we should look at the definition of "racist".............I'm too lazy to look it up

I am Weasel:" Don't have to do that. It's my opinion"

keep that in mind the next time you ask for proof

Ferris Bueller: Not everyone was behind votes for women.. but they still got the right. Not everyone was behind the working class having a vote.. but the law changed.

Ferris Bueller: I'll bet you money you can't prove this. Other than anecdotally.
