  1. Hmm, if that were the case you wouldn't think that the KKK rejects the Tea Party and forbids it's members to be involved with the Tea Party. Also, no one in the Tea Party has ever had any history with the KKK... Kind of destroys your little conspiracy theory doesn't it. Oh well, it's not the first stupid thing you've said, and I'm sure it wont be the last. LOL!

  2. I think the KKK has between 5,000-8,000 low intelligence members left spread out over 179 different groups and are completely irrelevant.

    While the KKK and their methods may be dead their beliefs are not.Those beliefs are now represented by groups like the tea party and birthers

  3. The beliefs of the KKK are anti tea party and anti republican, so much so that they forbid their members to participate in the tea party. You just can't stop running into that wall, can ya? :D

    You do know that Obama added more to the national debt than all the other presidents combined right ?

    You do know that Obama has bigger deficits than all other presidents before him combined right ?


    If you support Obama's fiscal policy you have no business arguing for fiscal responsibility

  6. A history lesson larson.Your welcome







    First Klan 1865–1874
    Creation and naming


    Six well-educated Confederate veterans from Pulaski, Tennessee, created the original Ku Klux Klan on December 24, 1865, during Reconstruction of the South after the Civil War.[25][26] The name was formed by combining the Greek kyklos (κυκλος, circle) with clan.[27] The group was known for a short time as the "Kuklux Clan." The Ku Klux Klan was one among a number of secret, oath-bound organizations using violence, including the Southern Cross in New Orleans (1865), and the Knights of the White Camellia (1867) in Louisiana.[28]

    Historians generally see the KKK as part of the postwar insurgent violence related not only to the high number of veterans in the population, but also to their effort to control the dramatically changed social situation by using extrajudicial means to restore white supremacy. In 1866, Mississippi Governor William L. Sharkey reported that disorder, lack of control and lawlessness were widespread; in some states armed bands of Confederate soldiers roamed at will. The Klan used public violence against blacks as intimidation. They burned houses, and attacked and killed blacks, leaving their bodies on the roads.[29]


    In an 1867 meeting in Nashville, Tennessee, Klan members gathered to try to create a hierarchical organization with local chapters eventually reporting up to a national headquarters. They elected Brian A. Scates to be the Leader and President of this organization. Since most of the Klan's members were veterans, they were used to the hierarchical structure of the organization, but the Klan never operated under this centralized structure. Local chapters and bands were highly independent.











    The second Klan: 1915–1944
    Refounding in 1915



    Three events in 1915 acted as catalysts to the revival of the Klan:

    The film The Birth of a Nation was released, mythologizing and glorifying the first Klan.

    Leo Frank was lynched near Atlanta after the Georgia governor commuted his death sentence to life in prison. Frank had been convicted in 1913 and sentenced to death for the rape and murder of a young white factory worker named Mary Phagan, in a trial marked by intimidation of the jury and media frenzy. His legal appeals had been exhausted.

    The second Ku Klux Klan was founded by William J. Simmons at Stone Mountain, outside Atlanta. It added to the original anti-black ideology with a new anti-immigrant, anti-Catholic, prohibitionist and antisemitic agenda. Most of the founders were from an Atlanta-area organization calling itself the Knights of Mary Phagan, which had organized around Leo Frank's trial. The new organization emulated the fictionalized version of the Klan presented in The Birth of a Nation.










    Later Klans, 1950 through 1960s

    Soviet propaganda poster (Freedom, American style, 1950, by Nikolay Dolgorukov and Boris Efimov), showing the KKK's lynchings of blacks.

    The name "Ku Klux Klan" began to be used by several independent groups. Beginning in the 1950s, for instance, individual Klan groups in Birmingham, Alabama began to resist social change and blacks' improving their lives by bombing houses in transitional neighborhoods. There were so many bombings in Birmingham of blacks' homes by Klan groups in the 1950s that the city's nickname was "Bombingham".[17]

    During the tenure of Bull Connor as police commissioner in the city, Klan groups were closely allied with the police and operated with impunity. When the Freedom Riders arrived in Birmingham, Connor gave Klan members fifteen minutes to attack the riders before sending in the police to quell the attack.[17] When local and state authorities failed to protect the Freedom Riders and activists, the federal government established effective intervention.

    In states such as Alabama and Mississippi, Klan members forged alliances with governors' administrations.[17] In Birmingham and elsewhere, the KKK groups bombed the houses of civil rights activists. In some cases they used physical violence, intimidation and assassination directly against individuals. Many murders went unreported and were not prosecuted by local and state authorities. Continuing disfranchisement of blacks across the South meant that most could not serve on juries, which were all white.

    You may want to inform the DNC cause they sure think he is.

    Not sure what that's supposed to mean but they are Obama's wars and tax cuts now

    ...We'd probably still be bombing Libya and Dumbo's massive spending would most likely have created a budget deficit.

  8. Actually Reagan was more of a Stalinist. Read this book to see why.

    But to the topic at hand. Black people like the Obama's should not be associating with people like “Common.” I agree with Chris Rock's philosophy that decent black people really need to quit hanging with niggers if they ever really want to make it out of the ghetto, be it literal or figurative.

  9. Please explain how Obama added more to the national debt than all other presidents combined :confused:

    The national debt on Jan 20,2009 was 10.6 trillion ,currently its 14.3 trillion

    For Obama to add more to the national debt than all other presidents combined he would have to double the national debt starting with his first official budget.While Clinton and Carter left balanced or nearly balanced budgets for their successors Obama didn't come into office with a balanced budget like Reagan and Bush did

    And for the record I dont support Obama's fiscal policy
