    Astonishing. Reid was wrong; her statement was false. You are not facing this reality.

    He was probably dragged there kicking and screaming...and then he talks about the economy.

    Whoa progs. Your narrative on Trump changes so fast you'll get whiplash. So what is it today? Trump's no longer a liberal? Or he's now a communist? Or far right? Oh, I know: he's a communist right wing bigot Nazi fascist. Or he's always been a liberal, and he's 'fooling' the right wing.

    Or is he whatever he needs to be in the moment to support your delusional proclamations?

    Obama got an award from the guys who hand out the Nobel Peace Prizes. Awards are meaningless.

    Well ... as long as you're pleased we may as well move on.

    Is it ok to complete the Mueller Investigation?

    Maybe both side can get what they eventually want and need.

    I never referred to Reid, nor made any statement regarding her comment.

    I was addressing what YOU said about when and why the monuments popped up all across the Jim Crow South in the late 1800 and early 1900's. It was from a well-organized and devoted attempt by the United Daughters of the Confederacy...(their forerunners were the Ladies Monument Associations) primarily brought about to revise history and intimidate blacks -- and whose Lost Cause legacy remains to this day.

    Obama went 8 years and never uttered the phrase. Trump went one day, and made it clear.

    You fail, both in deflecting away from the obvious bullsht claim that Trump is a racist, and your silly comparison here.

    Birther movement is "telling it like it is"?? LOL!!! Calling Mexicans rapists and murderers is "telling it like it is"?? Calling an American born judge inherently biased because his parents were mexican is "telling it like it is"?? Your judgement is suspect!

    Unreal.

    You are PROFOUNDLY confused at best, like Ms. Reid.

    You need to read what I have ACTUALLY written, and respond to that rather than your fantasy regarding what I've said.

    Reid's claim regarding the placement time of the Lee statue, and most Civil War statuary, is FALSE.

    Do you understand the difference between, for instance, 1923 and 1963?

    You have some serious comprehension issues. I made NO COMMENTARY about Reid. I was referring to what you said here:
    Antiduopolist said:
    Joy Reed needs to learn history, or perhaps needs to start telling the truth.
    The Lee statue is nearly 100 years old, as are most Civil War monuments.
    The 50th anniversary of the war was what sparked most of these remembrances, not the Civil Rights Movement."

    Which was wrong.

    I provided some history, which I was certain you wouldn't read, or care about -- and you proved me right. Whaytago!

    And...just cause...I'mma repost it:

    ====================
    (I don't expect you to read maybe past the first line or two below...but I'll lay it out here for the random reader who may be interested...)

    At the time - when those thousands of monuments were popping up all across Dixie, it was primarily for the cause of the white supremacist south.

    The black population could go to hell. It was meant as a big **** you to them.

    In the later 1800's early 1900's - in the south was a time they really flexed their White Supremacist muscle.

    That's when the Jim Crow laws, literacy tests, state mandated segregation - and basically full stomping on the Civil Rights of blacks in the South came about with a brute force.

    That short bit of time after the 15th Amendment when blacks were allowed to vote, and it was Federally enforced - was gone.

    Some states that had the black population make up over 50% or registered voters in the years after the war, plummeted to literally a fraction of 1% by 1900.

    At this same time, a resurfacing of Confederate "nobility" came about, and United Confederate Veterans, the United Daughters of the Confederacy set about to rewriting the history of the War.


    They started portraying the CSA as being about things like the tariffs, and States' Rights, and tried to whitewash the slavery aspect out of it altogether - and to the extent slavery existed, it was a benevolent kind, with gentle Mammies, generous, loving slaveowners, and happy happy slaves.

    They did this to justify Jim Crow and the White Supremacy that brought out KKK and other paramilitary organizations that were terrorizing and intimidating the hell out of the the blacks at that time.

    It was those women's groups that set in motion, even a hundred years later, with their Lost Cause propaganda and erecting of these statues all over the South the whitewash myth that still lingers.

    I don't feel strongly about moving these statues one way or another, but people need to remember why and under what circumstances they were put there.

    The over arching message was: White Supremacy Reigns.

    Many, many, many, many times.

    He read the words supplied by the assembled intellectual hell that is Bannon, Miller, and Gorka, or the Hungarian Nazi as I call him when he drops by for advice on how to get gals.

    My comments are correct, and you may wish to re-read them, and learn more about the subject of time and history. Good luck!

    I agree that Bannon and Miller are hell. Racist lying hell. Gorka is just a mess.

    Trump's being manhandled by family and responsible folks in his administration into condemning his neo-nazi and other white supremacist worshippers may well signal the dump of alty-boy Bannon.

    It sounds as if the General is saying that Bannon is contributing nothing but flatulence these days.

    I doubt if even megadoses of Beano® can save him now.

    There all certainly lager than life weirdos, it's quite a freak show.

    This clip of Miller...is almost designed by some strange psychologist to make the viewer feel uncomfortable:

    If you want to admit to your own racism, feel free.

    Everything on that list is a fact, but you should feel free to act like Trump and deny everything.

    I'm curious, did Trump get that "award" when he was still a democrat and talking about grabbing women's ******* was locker room talk?

    Also, you're free to dismiss the evidence l, but the evidence still exists.

    The only thing consistent for Trump is his ego and his masogyny.
