Joy Behar's Stupidity

Behar is so full of crap or is completely ignorant of American history. It was the
DEMOCRATS in the south who came up with the Jim Crow laws, the KKK were
comprised of DEMOCRATS. It was the Republicans who ended slavery and voted for
the civil rights act. It was the southern DIXIECRATS(DEMOCRATS) who opposed
civil rights. The DEMOCRATS were the party with the history of racism and
segregation, not the GOP.

Behar to Cain: GOP Hasn’t Been ‘Black Friendly’ for CenturiesFiled under 2012 Election, PoliticsComments (495)

Presidential hopeful Herman Cain made an appearance on ABC’s The View this week and had to deflect staggering ignorance from host Joy Behar. Discussing Cain’s assertion that some blacks are “brainwashed” not to consider any conservative ideas, the very first sentence out of Behar’s mouth was “The Republican Party hasn’t been black friendly over the many centuries in this country.”

Sadly, the coffee klatch program is what passes for as “intelligent” conversation on TV these days. Behar’s blather is ignorant in a million ways and indicative of the historical illiteracy of the far left in this country.

First, of course, this county hasn’t even been a country for “many centuries.” We are only about 235 years old as a nation! Most people don’t claim two as “many,” but only as “a couple.”

Second, the Republican Party has also not been around for “many centuries in this country.” The party is only about 155 years old.

Third, when the party itself was started it was derisively called the “Black Republicans” by Behar’s beloved Democrats because it was so friendly to America’s blacks. The party was founded with a pro-black agenda, its primary goal being the abolition all blacks from slavery and assuring them civil rights. In fact, for many decades after the Civil War and on into the 1900s most black Americans were Republicans, not Democrats. The very first blacks elected to Congress ran as Republicans. Blacks being Democrats is a relatively new development in our history.
