Abraham Lincoln was despised by the racists of the day was murdered because ot it. A racist Dem is an oxymoron. The Democratic Party used to be a haven for racists but people can change and the Democratic party did. So are the Republicans proud that they are known as a haven for racist/bigots/WHITE everythings? How many ACLU folks are Republicans? I know there are people of color in that party. What I don't know is WHY since the party prides itself on being a place where blatant racists/bigots can go and feel welcomed. less

That is why the Dems (Charlie Brown) voted to open government. Now if you are a "Peanuts" fan you know that every time Lucy holds the football for Charlie Brown to kick she PROMISES him she won't pull it away but at the very last minute she removes it and he kicks at air and falls down. Well I betcha Lucy won't bring DACA up. He never had any intention of doing so. He just said it and the Dems bought it so they are going to fall on their a** again when it never comes up for a vote. SIGH. Charlie Brown is ever hopeful that Lucy will keep her word. Lucy is ever devious and loves tricking the poor sap again and again and again and again and again. I wish it were otherwise but it ain't! :( less
You make plans. You execute them flawlessly. At the end what you sought and got was not what you thought it would be. It was wanting/inadequate. How often does that occur I wonder?

I relate to them and think of them as "my" people too. They lost 6 million people during the Holocaust at the hands of the Nazis while Armenians just lost 1.5 million people during the Armenian genocide at the hands of the Turks long ago. Some of you know that. So it is with extreme puzzlement that I see a Stephen Miller being an extreme right-wing white racist. Or whatever you want to call him. White supremacist, white nationalist, ALT-RIGHTER. It would be like an African American joining the KKK and participating in lynchings. Bizarre. You become part of the group that destroyed millions of your people. How is that even possible? less
