Mr. Johnson,

You opined that:

“The direction of the late 19th/early 20th century Republicans was to keep blacks servile and more or less obedient.”

I’d be interested in reading how the Republicans were singlehandedly successful in keeping blacks under foot if you would recommend some references.

Give thanks to the real defenders of freedom and liberties and its sure not the politicians who scribble their signatures to various treaties and documents

A HEARTFELT THANK YOU TO ALL FELLOW VETERANS!

When the final history of the world is written, the least of them will occupy a higher place than the lowly Arafat. They will be remembered, he will be forgotten, the fawning media notwithstanding.

I’m sorry La Shawn.
I see that we are not suppose to attempt to place links in our comments. Guess I wasn’t paying attention when I posted my first comment.
Sorry.

Pathetic that our Veterans Day will henchforth be synomnous with dead Arafish day.

French conspiracy to artificially keep him alive long enough to spit on our brave men & women?

Hey LaShawn and everyone, thank you for your words of appreciation for vets and our military. I send the same wishes. I served in the Air Force from ‘85 – ‘90. My hubby has been in the AF for 25 years and counting.
Blessings, all.
