So if he WAS a racist...he he would have let that guy go? Sounds legit to me... As usual, you have difficulty following along. Hint---read the post I quoted before you start spouting off.

Well, one of the reasons. http://www.weeklystandard.com/in-alabama-jeff-sessions-desegregated-schools-and-got-the-death-penalty-for-kkk-murderer-updated/article/2005461 Sessions's actual track record certainly doesn't suggest he's a racist. Quite the opposite, in fact. As a U.S. Attorney he filed several cases to desegregate schools in Alabama. And he also prosecuted Klansman Henry Francis Hays, son of Alabama Klan leader Bennie Hays, for abducting and killing Michael Donald, a black teenager selected at random. Sessions insisted on the death penalty for Hays. When he was later elected the state Attorney General, Sessions followed through and made sure Hays was executed. The successful prosecution of Hays also led to a $7 million civil judgment against the Klan, effectively breaking the back of the KKK in Alabama. 1 hour ago, 3rdnlng said: Nice one.

Magox Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 11 hours ago, Doc Brown said: From what I've read, Mo Brooks would have been the perfect candidate in Alabama if you buy into Trump's "draining the swamp" rhetoric. I think Brooks will run for and win the 2020 Senate seat that Jones just took. In a landslide, of course with Mo Brooks you will have a Senate that will be even more dysfunctional than it is today. He's as rigid as they come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was never a "bigot" until he ran as a Republican. Continual beating of that drum only works when someone is actually a bigot. Honestly, Alabama is the first state that made me realize how many racists were the darkest of blue. "Blah, blah, blah, we hate the rich and ni...... Democrats for life!" Just letting you know.

Tiberius Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Quote Let’s not forget, however, that Moore, a disgraced former judge (twice booted from the court) and an accused child molester who is openly racist and homophobic — received 91 percent of the Republican vote. Republicans, at least in Alabama, remain deeply mired in their theology of white grievance and largely indifferent, if not hostile, to reality. Republicans were not persuaded; they were outvoted. Should they persist in their Trumpian cult and refuse to emerge from their right-wing media bubble, they face being outvoted again and again by enraged non-Republicans — and in places far less Republican than Alabama. https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/right-turn/wp/2017/12/13/trump-is-toxic-and-other-lessons-from-alabama/?utm_term=.359441c4f084 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It highlights how poorly Liberals understand Republicans. Republicans typically support candidates whose priorities are fiscal responsibility, national security, a growth economy and more recently enforcement of immigration law. Liberals all the while are all wrapped up in special treatment for various groups of people, increasing entitlements, climate change and the evilness of the rich and corporations. The post writer (and most of the left) views the political opposition through the lens of all the social crap as if the other truly big issues don't exist. Now if Republicans in office could be more effective on the truly big stuff, they'd own a larger share of the market of voters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massive deficits forever. National security? By cozying up to Putin? The immigrant thing is nothing more than nativism The GOP is just a big cry baby group.
