Freedom Fighters...though a bit misguided.

The fact that they stay put in a party where they often tend to be unwelcome is a gutsy decision, however they are not agenda setters and could probably have more influence if they were members of the Democratic Party. Having said that I do support them in principle and that they are truer to traditions of the Republican Party that the evangelist intelligent design nutters are.

Intelligent design is no more a nuttier idea then Evolution.

I doubt it.  You show me a black member of the Alabama Democratic Party in 1950 and I'll eat my hat.  It was a sudden influx during the civil rights era when the Democrats ended the New Deal coalition in favor of bringing equality to the oppressed.

The main reason that blacks left the GOP in the 50's is due to the fact that Republicans were largely ignoring their requests. The book Southern Politics by V.O. Key goes into great depths about this subject. Really by the time the solid south switched over to GOP many southern blacks had already left the party. The fault for the switch is on the main leaders of the GOP in the late 40's for almost completely ignoring the black membership and taking the black vote for granted.

The picture showed several undressed men. One of the pictures partially showed a penis. And yes I reported it if you have a problem with it, PM me.
