FOXNews.com - Reid Compares Opponents of Health Care Reform to Supporters of Slavery

As pointed out in the article "Strom Thurmond, then a Democrat, who unsuccessfully tried to filibuster the Civil Rights Act of 1957 and it was Republicans who led the charge against slavery". Ever hear of Abraham Lincoln? He was a republican. Stupid fucking liberals. But this is what they do when they are losing. They piss in their pants and start name calling.

Hint: you just pissed your pants and engaged in name-calling.

Abraham Lincoln was a Republican when Republicans were liberal, and Dems were conservative. The parties switched sides. Stupid fucking politicians.

And it is amazing how much political parties can change in 150+ years.

Lincoln was a Republican, yes. What is your point?

I don't think it says anything about how "stupid" liberals are.
It does however speak volumes about how an idiot like Reid can not only get elected, not only retain tha office - but to become the Majority leader!!

As far as dems letting him be head honcho in the senate? Well dems have never been accused of being too smart.

Seniority can be overridden nowdays. It used to be everything as far as senate positions went, but now its available to whomever will best toe the party line. Often it still goes to the most senior member but that is the option of the party leadership.
