Stupid Republican idea of the day

I think you spelled “Kouncil of Konservative Ksitizens” wrong.

Rachel Maddow, she of the swan’s neck, girlish giggle and steel trap mind…just reminded me about the White Citizen’s Council, the very acme of virulent racism in its time. They changed their name, but not their tune. The Council of Conservative Citizen. “Conservative”, mind you.

Barry Goldwater would puke his guts out.

Catton said that Sherman held his men back in Georgia, but once they reached the Birthplace of the Rebellion his restraint on them was minimal. I’d enjoy reading more about what they did in South Carolina.

AKA “the Uptown Klan.”

I’m gonna try for the Uptown Klan,
I’m using high class means to crush the black man…

They’re the CCC, which is completely different from the KKK.

There’s a story about Truman speaking before the KKK. They invited him, and he showed up. He had a haberdashery and his partner was Jewish. So, he said something like his partner had told him that there must be at least one Jew in the KKK, because only a Jew would think of cutting up and sewing a bedsheet and selling it to some dumb hick for $10.00.

The KKK is the CCC with backbone.

If they had backbones they wouldn’t be hiding under their momma’s bedsheets. The KKK are cowards, just like the CCC and the rest of the Southern racists.

Jeesh! Use a spoiler box, next time, okay?

I believe a number of candidates have returned the funds or donated them to charity, after getting their hands caught in the cookie jar, so to speak.

This organization was kicked out of CPAC for being to racist in 1998. And 17 years later the GOP yahoos were happily accepting contributions from it?

I wonder if there were secret dark money contributions to superpacs that haven’t been returned.

No dark money from those guys.

You’re bad. Very good, but bad. :slight_smile:

Yes, but aside from the irony, I was also making a joke on the shapes of the letters K and C, i.e. add a “backbone” to a C to make a K.

Ann Coulter understands why South Carolina governor Nikki Haley is in favor of removing the Confederate flag from the state Capitol.

You see, it’s because Ms. Haley is “an immigrant” who “does not understand America’s history.”

In the real world, of course, Haley was born in the far-flung foreign land of Bamberg, South Carolina.

No doubt her real Punjabi long-form birth certificate will be made available any day now.

If you’re not totally white, you’re an immigrant… unless you’re Ted Cruz or Bobby Jindal. I think they just make up the rules as they go along.

ya think?

Now I understand. Nikki Haley was an anchor baby – not really American.

Sure, as long they stick to the idea that people are sinful and God is ultimately in charge.
It’s John Calvinball.

If you made that up, I salute you sir!

If you stole it, I make “tut tut” noises, then salute you!
