The Ugly Side of Another Failed Black Democrat
From Gateway Pundit
Sphere: Related ContentOn July 30th 1866:
White Democrats, led by police, attacked a convention of Black and white Republicans in New Orleans. More than 40 persons were killed, and at least 150 were wounded. Gen. Philip H. Sheridan, Military commander of the state, said, “It was not riot; it was an absolute massacre…which the mayor and the police of the city perpetrated without the shadow of a necessity.”
Those ugly democratic attacks continue to this day.
At The New York Times today, another failed black leader, Bob Herbert, attempts to rewrite history with his ugly hit piece “The Ugly Side of the G.O.P.” . And, of course, MoveOn.org’s favorite discount rag is more than happy to push the democratic line:I applaud the thousands of people, many of them poor, who traveled from around the country to protest in Jena, La., last week. But what I’d really like to see is a million angry protesters marching on the headquarters of the National Republican Party in Washington.
The G.O.P. has spent the last 40 years insulting, disenfranchising and otherwise stomping on the interests of black Americans…
…Republicans improperly threw black voters off the rolls in Florida in the contested presidential election of 2000, and sent Florida state troopers into the homes of black voters to intimidate them in 2004.
Blacks have been remarkably quiet about this sustained mistreatment by the Republican Party, which says a great deal about the quality of black leadership in the U.S. It’s time for that passive, masochistic posture to end.
Of course, Herbert has no facts to back up his liberal talking points.
If Herbert was honest at all, maybe he would report which party has really helped the blacks in this country.
Deroy Murdock wrote a brilliant history lesson at National Review that Herbert ought to read some time. Not only does Murdoch go over the numerous lynchings, murder and violent attacks on blacks by democrats, but he adds these facts that Herbert failed to mention in his liberal smack piece today:
