WTG Mississippi!!

Here's some history fantasy. The governors of Mississippi and their affiliation:
(I wonder why they are just recently getting around to ratifying the 13th ammendment.)

Haley Barbour January 13, 2004 January 10, 2012 Republican
Phil Bryant January 10, 2012 Incumbent Republican

A historical set of facts:

1. Ths South lost the "War of Northern Aggression" but won completely Reconstruction. The wealth and power today lies in the sunbelt and the federal lands North are a dustbend......because of a strong embrace of Socalist principals and strong central government.

2. Germany lost WWII and today are the power in Europe......actually a evil as he was Hitler won.

3. We won the cold war but now are a destitute nation and Russia/China are powerhouses on the rise.

4. The American Civil War was over STATES RIGHTS.....period. The War continuse BTW.

5. When the carpetbaggers tried to "reconstruct" Texas....Texans simply killed then as they crossed the Red river.....after a few months no more came.

NEVER try to predict outcomes

you will be wrong most of the time.


Misissippi IMHO can determine their own laws.....IMHO slavery is not an issue....the issue is just so much hot air from liberals clinging to hot button issues to justify their larger platform.

So Missippippi had Democrat governors from 1876 to 1992? What a roll!

Very strange that when the first Republican gets in after those 116 years, Kirk Fordice 1992-2000, Mississippi finally gets around to ratify the 13th amendment in 1995 (and it took WAY too long). I'm sure it's just coincidence and afterall, 1995 is "ancient" history.

Yes, Missippippi made a mistake in not making it final. And even Dem Ronnie Musgrove (2000-2004) missed it?

So now it finally gets "fixed", way too late, under a Republican governor? Isn't Phil Bryant a tea party guy? But, of course, this is all just coincidence and ancient history. lol

I'm sure there is more to the story. Let the research begin... lol

ahhh shucks...where is the quote of LJ's response....I was so looking forward to reading that.

My response was already in the link I posted... (Not that I expected anyone to read it...) I'll post a few again:

The Conservative Fantasy History of Civil Rights

Civil Rights and the History of Party Platforms. And Ann Coulter


Your list doesn't matter a hill-of-beans since, as usual, you think you can rely on the "labels" of "Democratic" and "Republican" to prove your point...(Even after this has been proven to be a total fallacy at least a hundred times before.) Since the roles of Dem/Rep/Liberal/Conservative/Bigot/DixieCrat flipped in the South for decades, you can post your list all you want, and it's irrelevant. The racist bigots in the South made sure of that... The so-called "GOP" stopped being the "Party of Lincoln" right after the 13th/14th Amendments in the South, and the final nails in the coffin of those labels became even clearer in the 50's/60's when the "Southern Strategy" kicked in.

Why did the Republican governor finally decide to do something about it?... Gee, ya think maybe because he found out that NOT having it done was about to be an embarrassment to the Teabagger Party?

Thanks for an enjoyable evening of the usual "Republican Fantasy History of Civil Rights"... Always fun...

Please, you don't even know what a neo-con is. Please define neo-con for your fans here.
It is just a term you throw around and don't even understand.

Now that would ruin the narrative Fred. That's what really pisses her off, liberal traitors.

In true liberal fashion....side step.

Please tell us what years were the southern Democrats not allowed to participate in the Democratic National Convention.
What years were they barred at the door of the convention?
What years were they told to go back home and not return to the convention?
Were their delegates to the convention censured?

Please tell us, LJ. Or were they welcomed every time that the Democratic National Convention asked for their delegate votes for their presidential candidate? Did the Democrats from New York not recognize the Democrats from Mississippi as "hail, fellow, well met"?

History and facts? Please. Give LJ time to find another slanted HuffPo editorial masquerading as reporting.
