Dumb, LOL yes you are
trying to rewrite history by saying conservatives were really liberals and liberals were really conservatives because that serves your attempt to rewrite history better.
after all, Goldwater & Nixon must be modern day liberals while JFK & LBJ would be modern day conservatives. LMAF
But if they pass stuff you liked, well they are what they are.
Keep your sorry ass attempt to rewrite history to the sorry ass people that can't see the forest through the trees.
And think for one second. You're making an argument that Dixiecrats switched parties because the Democrats approved the Equal Rights Act, without providing one source to back up your position other than some attempt to cite an ever changing political landscape while ignoring one big fucking glaring weakness;
why on earth would Dixiecrats switch to the party which supported the ERA by an 80/20 ratio? doesn't that defeat their purpose and your entire argument?
Of course it does, but lefties repeat their own lies and their own version of rewriting history so often that their lies become the truth to them.
In conjunction with the civil rights movement, Johnson overcame southern resistance and convinced Congress to pass the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which outlawed most forms of racial segregation. John Kennedy originally proposed the Act and had lined up the necessary votes in the House to pass his civil rights act by the time of his death in November 1963. However, for the fight in the Senate, Johnson was the one to get it pushed through. He signed it into law on July 2, 1964. Legend has it that, as he put down his pen, Johnson told an aide, "We have lost the South for a generation," anticipating a coming backlash from Southern whites against Johnson's Democratic Party.<SUP id=cite_ref-32 class=reference>[33]</SUP>

GTC, you're the forum laughing stock, and you shouldn't enter any discussion of substance
Punter, so Bill Moyers saying that LBJ made a comment, I'll assume it's absolutely true, outweighs all the evidence and common sense that destroys that argument.
The politicians didn't change parties, incumbents continued to be reelected by wide margins, conservatives were still conservatives, liberals were still liberals and 80% the of fucking conservatives in that day and age supported the bill.
80% of the Republicans / conservatives in that day and age supported the bill
80% of the Republicans / conservatives in that day and age supported the bill
80% of the Republicans / conservatives in that day and age supported the bill
80% of the Republicans / conservatives in that day and age supported the bill
80% of the Republicans / conservatives in that day and age supported the bill
yet the South switched from the Democrats to the Republicans because the Democrats supported that bill by a smaller margin?
and Bill Moyer said LBJ predicted that would happen.
Okie Doke, brilliance at work and I'm dumb

From Traditional Values [sic] .....
"Contrary to what homosexual activist groups or homosexual-affirming psychological associations may suggest, there is hope for individuals who wish to break free from unwanted same-sex attractions, sexual compulsions, cross-dressing, or transsexual feelings.
The list below is not comprehensive yet many of these organizations provide their own lists of referral services state by state as well as international resources. We will continue to add to this list.
The good news is that no one is born homosexual or transsexual. These are mental conditions that can be treated through religious-based or psychological therapies.
We offer this list to all those who feel trapped in unwanted same-sex desires. We pray that they will find the freedom they deserve to live full and productive lives."
These people claim homosexuality is a sickness, and that someone would choose such a difficult life, and it can be cured by brainwashing. However it is they who are diseased, obsessed, and brainwashed. This is disgusting. I hope gay groups gain the strength to fight this intolerance.

Scott,
This view was the view of the scientific, and psychiatric community
until the militant gay activists started threatening people.
Read this page on the conservative wikipedia on homosexuality,
and you will find that the agenda spewed and swallowed by the
ignorant masses is clearly not factual.
http://www.conservapedia.com/Homosexuality
Oh yeah, and it's not a matter of intolerance, it's a matter of
scientific fact. To say that the scientific community has
conclusive evidence to show that homosexuality is genetic
it a total fucking lie that the lemmings have swallowed.
To Zit:
Swallowed? Good choice of words heh heh .....
To say that homosexuality is inborn is common sense. People used to think the earth was flat. You only consider your "scientific facts" when they fit into your crusade. I'm sure Masters & Johnson were "threatened" by gay activists:
http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,920282,00.html
The most you can say about whether it's inborn or not is that the issue is not resolved.
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...merican+Psychological+Association&btnG=Search
But for me, "inborn" is not really the issue. The issue is whether or not campaigning against gay rights is discriminatory and hatefilled. And I say it is! And I also believe you are anti-gay strictly for religious reasons. Were you agnostic would gay rights permeate your mind so much?

Of course.
But the implication offered by JTP was that he could somehow "keep gays away from his kids" when in fact any time they go out in public they likely pass within walking distance of gays all over town. I know you're not that naive. I'm merely joshing with anyone who might be.
