Why do liberals accuse Republicans of being racists?

For 100 years, the Republicans fought for the freedom and equality of blacks. Lincoln was a Republican, and he won the freedom from slavery for blacks. After the Civil War, Republicans enacted the Fourteenth Amendment to protect the rights of freed slaves. In 1957, Eisenhower sent the U.S. Army to Little Rock to force Democrat Governor Orval Fabus to desegregate the schools.

All of the racist bigots became Democrats after the Civil War because Lincoln was a Republican. For 100 years, Democrats were the ones who lynched blacks and made laws against blacks. Democrats formed the KKK and established segregation. Democrats fillibustered and defeated Republican anti-lynching bills in 1922 and 1938.

That's why most blacks were Republicans until the Democrats bought their votes with welfare in 1964.

But even though the blacks switched parties in 1964, most racist bigots did not.

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 LAST admitted former KKK member in Congress was DemoKKKrat Robert Byrd, a former KKK Kleagle, a recruiter who persuaded people to join the KKK. He fillibustered the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

So where do we get this myth that "most" of the southern racist Democrats switched to the Republican party after 1964?

Is it a myth?

Or just another Democrat LIE

Whatever you're trying to prove, you are not doing it well. The change in the entire voting pattern of the southern states is a matter of record.

The "Solid South" (look up the term) abandoned its historic, long-term support for the Democratic Party and now votes for Republicans at the national level.

The Republican Southern Strategy was a major element in that transition. Republicans took advantage of the hostile reaction to the civil rights legislation to recruit the disaffected Dixiecrats to the Republican Party

When you don't have an argument you name call. You will see stupid shit like the picture above but they will completely ignore the black actor that supports Romney and was attacked by liberals saying the most racist shit you ever heard, shit you would hear from Unclebuck. Then you have articles like this that supporting some blacks vote on skin color, liberals are slowly becoming the party of racism they can't hide it any longer. The irony is this line they're dancing on is going to come back and bite them big time, it just takes one white trayvon martin (which has already happened but the media ignored). It's going to be a politicians child or someone like stacy dash.

Because liberals have a mental disorder which makes them think if you don't like me, then I must destroy you! They fear being alone that they must force others to become Borg and resistance is futile!
