What have democrats gotten right? How about balancing the federal budget 4 times during the nineties? I know republicans did that but they didn't. If they did the budget would have stayed balanced after Clinton left. Shame republicans no longer know what true conservatism is. Democrats also fulfilled another republican's promise - getting Bin Laden. But under Obama the democrats have pulled the economy out of an economic black hole second only to the great depression. Finally they made a baby step towards fixing our health care system which is just an embarrassment.
This is such an obvious way to counter their lies it hurts to see how weak we have made ourselves. The Republican party as a whole has become a mere reflection of its self instead of doing what it should to combat progressive lies. This one issue alone can hang them out to dry and what do they do about it on Fox news? Nothing!
For some unknown reason this topic isn't dealt with, we know why its not talked about seriously by Democrats but why in the world doesn't the Republican party take it and use it?
Shame on them for being so easily fooled by a liar.
I don't know what that has to do with my comment though.
When your average American democrat wakes up to find his party is run by those I mentioned, I think we will then have a real change. So far most democrat politicians are still trying to hide their true colors (RED).
In 1968 all the racists became Republicans and have been Republicans ever since. That's why your party is 93% white and why African Americans and all people of color have voted Democratic ever since. If you don't know that bit of history , what do you know?
How many pre-1964 southern racist Democrat bigots did NOT join the Republican party after 1964?
Orval Fabus
Benjamin Travis Laney
John Stennis
James Eastland
Allen Ellender
Russell Long
John Sparkman
John McClellan
Richard Russell
Herman Talmadge
George Wallace
Lester Maddox
John Rarick
Robert Byrd
Al Gore, Sr.
Bull Connor
In fact, it seems that MOST of the Dixiecrats did NOT join the Republican party, even though many of them lived long past 1964.Only a very FEW of them switched to the GOP, such as Strom Thurmond and Mills Godwin.
And as we all know by now, the ONLY admitted former KKK member in Congress today is Robert Byrd, a former KKK Kleagle, a recruiter who persuaded people to join the KKK.
So the only Dixiecrats who switched are Thurmond, Helms, and Godwin.Only 3 switched to GOP.
The Vote was The original House version:
Southern Democrats: 7–87 (7–93%)
Southern Republicans: 0–10 (0–100%)
Northern Democrats: 145–9 (94–6%)
Northern Republicans: 138–24 (85–15%)
The Senate version:
Southern Democrats: 1–20 (5–95%)
Southern Republicans: 0–1 (0–100%)
Northern Democrats: 45–1 (98–2%)
Northern Republicans: 27–5 (84–16%)
You cannot claim the end of DADT wasn't an accomplishment of a Democratic President just because some Republicans voted for it in the end.
It defies logic. But logic isn't a strong suit of illogical conservatives,.
It's all about their power.
Remember what LBJ said after the '64 Voting Right Act Passed “I’ll have those ni**ers voting Democratic for the next 200 years.”
Noting that 82% of Republicans voted for the Civil Rights Act of 1964 versus only 64% of Democrats.
He later said “These Negroes, they’re getting pretty uppity these days and that’s a problem for us since they’ve got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we’ve got to do something about this, we’ve got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference.”—LBJ
The Great Society
Opposing the Iraq and Afghan wars.

Now what have conservatives got right?
Jesus also cursed a fig tree, but hey, he's your messiah. xD
The fig tree represents a person who bears no fruit, Jesus expects you to bring more people to him, they would be the fruit.
