People’s perception of freedom never ceases to amaze me. French
revolutionaries sent the ruling class to the guillotine, only to enslave
themselves to the class structure of socialism. The Russian Tsars were
chased out of their own country so that “freedom fighters” could live
under the tyranny of communism. And, after more than a century of civil
liberty battles and triumphs, African-Americans are flocking to the
party that opposed every measurable civil rights initiative since the
Emancipation Proclamation. It should stun historians that the party of
the Ku Klux Klan and segregation now has an undeniable stranglehold on
black America.
In fact, a quick Google search will yield thousands of results claiming the mantel of moral superiority in the name of Democrats. The Left’s self-righteous proclamation of compassion is matched only by their insatiable eagerness to twist history. It was the Republican Party – the party established on the abolitionist platform – that passed the Civil Rights acts of 1866 and 1875. The founders of the NAACP were all registered Republicans. Dwight Eisenhower (a Republican) is the president who sent troops to Arkansas to de-segregate schools. Republicans carried the Civil Rights acts of the ‘50s and 60’s to the President’s desk. Richard Nixon wrote the US commission on Civil Rights in 1975. It was George W Bush who appointed more minorities to his cabinet than any President before him.
