Everyone (except LIVs) knows that the ACA, the "Affordable Care Act" is a travesty and was passed without one single Republican Vote.
When was the last time a law was passed without a single vote from the other party?
Little Known Fact:
March 1, 1875: Civil Rights Act of 1875, guaranteeing access to public accommodations without regard to race, signed by Republican President U.S. Grant
Republican support: 92%
Democrat support: 0%
BAM!
-
Other little known (or, more accurately, little acknowledged) fact:
In addition to having their own "History Month" blacks have their own history.
That history excludes any credit to Republicans for the civil rights gains made, specifically in civil rights laws passed. For instance, while they do seem to understand that Lincoln emancipated the black populations of the slave states they do not remember that he was a Republican. They also forget that the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1968 would not have been possible without the votes of Republicans. And, today's holiday...MLK Day...was signed into law by President Reagan. Perhaps most curious is the memory purge of southern Democrats' membership in the KKK and the Democrat promotion of the abortion agenda which has its origins in black genocide. Instead, they have their own imagined history in which Republicans have always worked to keep them down while brave Democrats have championed them.
There are a great many things in this life that I do not understand. On that list and close to the top is why black people (collectively and in general) continue to vote for Democrats and continue to imagine that Republicans, all evidence to the contrary, work against their best interests. You would think that after many, many generations of failed black social justice policies and laws driven by Democrats that maybe, just maybe, eyes would begin to open. But no. Some things seem completely intractable to change and this may be one of them. It profoundly saddens me.

Everything you said Trap is 100% true. And I once felt sad, like you. No more. I am repulsed and angry at those who take their freedom and liberty for granted and cannot see the truth nor even bother looking for it and instead rely upon the words of others who, while often sharing the same ethnic and experiential background as they, act little better than prison trustees, and help keep their kind in perpetual ignorance, poverty and despair merely to maintain a captive base of minions to help them secure the political social leadership positions in the greater progressive conspiracy they've long ago sold their souls to. I pity the innocent not yet fully enslaved and I hate the minions bitterly.

Trap, I watched some -man-on-the-street- interviews for MLK day and there were blacks who said:
Yes he looked like he had gained weight since his last speech
He just died that day
He was doing better these days than before etc,
when the black population, in part, doesn not even understand their own history but respond like a dumb herd as programmed, yes, there is much saddness and little hope

That has got to be a hell of a stretch or favoring to mark it as high as 85.

Yup. Unfortunately the opposite is also still true...the too many millions who don't give a damn for whatever reason. ::unknowncomic::

This is good and all but it presents only a sliver of how dishonest the SOTU speech (especially as rendered by the POSOTUS) has become.
The *Goddamm* thing was rife with cynical and divisive false equivalencies and false choices. It was chock-full of ideological, race, and class warfare. The plick showed that he is an arrogant SOB but not much else.
And I only exposed myself to snippets of his bullcrap.

My fave part of the SOTU was when the Pubbies started clapping when O said he wasn't campaigning anymore. Of course, the thin-skinned/light-skinned narcissist couldn't stand the mocking of him, so he shot back "and I won both of them."
It's so easy to get under his skin.

Somebody should have yelled at that point - "Only because the GOP picked establishment idiots to run against you!".
