Could someone please enlighten me and tell me why OldiesFreak has such a bad rep here? Looking at his posts, it seems like he definitely doesn't like Democrats, but I don't see anything awful that he says or does. He seems reasonable and objective enough to me.
I agree with these thoughts. Regardless of his rigid party loyalty, his actual views and statements are not that extreme at all. Oldiesfreak is very proud of his party's origins, as he should be. The Republicans were far better on civil rights than the Democrats were in the past, and maybe he just wants to keep that tradition alive forever. Other posters are hard on him, but he should also get credit for sticking to his own interpretations of history.
