That is exactly what you adolescents are trying to do. You see your own
prejudices everywhere you look. I imagine you never heard of the State's Rights
Constitutional issue before, and know you are ignorant of the acrimonious
Tidelands issue. You just want to follow modern democrat precedent and throw mud
in all directions. Sad for you that Civil Rights legislation was only pushed
through the Congress by the Republicans and northern Democrats over the
screaming objections of southern Democrats including Bill Clinton;s mentor
Fullbright and Al Gore's daddy Sen. Gore of TN. Hard to rewrite history
preserved in the Congressional Record.
