Don’t believe everything you read on your socialist sites.

Liberals are making America great

Riiight, kapo lgm.

If she walks away with neither the nomination nor the VP slot, the Fleetwood Mac song Bill Clinton used in 1992 becomes Hillary’s new battle cry for 2012:

Don’t Stop Thinking About Tomorrow

I see a big difference between MLK, Rev. Sharpton, and Jessie Jackson. MLK was about the cause, Sharpton and Jackson are about themselves. Those two are phonies.

Would MLK always be agreed with by conservative pundits today… no, but he’d be respected.

The states of California and New York carry the nation

What a maroon. You couldn’t walk the streets of New York before Giuliani came in and cleaned the place up. You still can’t in LA, or most other California cities, especially at night. And the only reason NY seems to have an economy is that a couple of stock markets and several corporate HQs are there. They produce nothing. Virtually all of the industry in upstate NY has been run out by the high taxes and other liberal idiocy coming out of Albany.

opposed to the Civil Rights Amendment of 1964.

Which, as I recall, was passed on the strength of Republican votes, Goldwater notwithstanding.

Malcolm learned so much about other races after his pilgrimage to the holy land. His less radical views led to his own killing him. I think he had so much to offer.

Both men may have experienced some ups and downs publicly in 60’s and 70’s. But I don’t think their greatness would have been tarnished long term. They would have adapted to the times.

I think they’d still be Republicans based on the content of someone’s character being an important criteria to conservatives and less important to liberals.

I am one of those “older conservatives.” I have always felt that to honor Dr. King we needed to see to it that we created an America where people were “judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.”

I believe Malcolm X would be a republican if he were alive today. However, based on Dr. King’s ideologies, I think he’d be a modern day democrat, or maybe even further to the left. This is all speculation and opinion. Who really knows?

It’s just that since King was against the Vietnam War, and favored government intervention to inact civil rights, today’s conservatives would be against him. I couldn’t imagine the MM’s and Hannity’s of the world championing the forced integration of schools, or telling private business owners who they have to allow into their establishments. I think the 1960s version of the rightwing conservative opposed these ideas. Barry Goldwater is one example. I’m not saying Goldwater was a racist, but he was opposed to the Civil Rights Amendment. He thought it should be left up to the states, and that hopefully the more immoral/racist states would eventually be shamed into doing the right thing. Barry Goldwater was no racist, but many social conservatives were. Back then, there were social conservatives in both parties.

Of course some conservatives and a few liberals were simply racist bigots. If you look at some of that old footage of white people screaming with hatred at students and patrons, I find something very curious. A lot of these disgusting people were, church going, god-fearing “patriotic” Americans, who still found justification for their evil. I think a lot of people today realize that this type of behavior is inherently wrong, and have changed. Others just realize that society has changed, and they feel that they better keep their true feelings more private.

Anyway, back to King:
To paraphrase from the DarkKnight, “He died a hero, and therefore didn’t live long enough to become the villain.”
I don’t think many conservatives would be as glowing in their King praise if he had lived, or if they were around back then.

Scientists and engineers are 70% liberal…

In 18 years of being in industries where these people work… my experience says no more than 10% on the high side

The states of California and New York carry the nation economically.

California is being run into the crapper by the phony Republican Governator, and illegals.

New York is a socialist run State with all its programs, handouts, and waste. New York does well when the Finance industry is doing well. Tax revenues are down and deficits are up.

Rockers around the world agree: Ted Nugent s***s.

Do you have a list of Rocker quotes that says Nugent sucks? I’m not a big Nug fan. Some of his stuff is OK. His Damn Yankees stint in the 90’s was decent. And he’s a hell of a guitar player.

JFK didn’t like MLK, Hoover had him followed and bugged.

You cannot lump all conservatives as racists. Its simply not true. However, the majority of politicos that were against MLK were Democrats. Many sources back me up.

Watch the conservatives retreat over the decades. Today’s older conservatives blasted MLK as a communist when he was alive, but now they claim he was a Republican.

I’ve never heard one reference to MLK’s political affiliation. Probably because unlike Obama, he was a real uniter.

Fleetwood Mac (the linked video) were acid dropping hippies destroying not only American culture, but her very civil fabric. Now even geezer conservatives can rock & roll (Huck).

I thought the liberal elite were making America better? You mention that below:

Bottom line: since WWII, American conservatives have contributed nothing to our culture or well being or moral advancement (torture).

Are you trying to tell me that gay marriage and cutting up the unborn and sucking them out with a vacuum and hiding the truth about psychological ramifications are moral? I guess your side of the aisle likes the moral relativism. That way, you stand on your little soapbox and tell God what sin is as opposed to Him telling you what sin is.

Oh wait, I mentioned God. Liberals don’t like doing that because it might offend someone.

How about throwing away ballots from US soldiers in Alabama? Is that moral?

They are dragged into the future by liberal artists, scientific and engineering elite, and moral leaders (MLK).

Moral leaders? Many of our priests and pastors, rabbis and imams are CONSERVATIVE.

Scientific and engineering elite? Most of them come from foreign countries because Americans are too lazy and busy watching John Stewart, Jay Leno and football to do math and physics. They think that because they aren’t white male Protestants that everything should be handed to them and the reason why they can’t succeed are because they were repressed or suffer from imaginary illnesses.

Artists? What are they doing for the future? Making movies based on propaganda and lies to get their message across? Yeah, their idealism is so good that they have to lie or cloak it to sell it?

MLK was a uniter, but I don’t think running around a hotel naked in Norway is moral, but then again, we aren’t supposed to criticize African-American activists, are we? Guess I’m just an old-fashioned racist. Oh well.

Maybe now you can see why republicans aren’t embracing him as a conservative?

Liberals are making America great.

If we keep electing liberals,

1) The Western EU will be under sharia law, the East will be overrun by Russia, who will be drilling in the Arctic and Antarctica, and probably stealing other resources from Canada and Alaska,

2) China and Cuba will be drilling off the Continental Shelf, and China will have control of the Asian Tigers, Japan, possibly even Hawaii and Marin County, CA where I’m sure some democrats would welcome them with open arms.

3) The great artistic culture that you talk about? By 2100, I can see European cultures wiped off the map and into the fossil record.

4) Lebanese gangs will run Australia.

Liberals are responsible for weakening America and the entire democratic world. They have been doing that since JFK was shot.

Secular, liberal societies FAIL, LGM. Conservative ones prevail. That is why you are seeing a change in global power that will happen this century, and you are too arrogant to even realize it.

The states of California and New York carry the nation economically.

Rockers around the world agree: Ted Nugent s***s.

JFK didn’t like MLK, Hoover had him followed and bugged. But you can’t say conservatives of the day didn’t call him all the names (communist, traitor, ……) they now bestow on those most hated today.
