Alan Grayson Flaunts His Ignorance

From Michael Geer at the American Thinker Blog:

Alan Mark Grayson is the United States Representative for Florida's 9th congressional district and a member of the Democratic Party. And he is dumb as a bag of hammers.

...........................

Because Grayson is a Democrat. The Ku Klux Klan was the vicious thug wing of the Democratic Party. You know, that political party which endorsed the KKK, refused to recognize the 14th Amendment? The political party that encouraged the KKK to attack and kill Republicans and blacks. That encouraged the KKK to burn down Republican offices, attack Republican homes, lynch blacks and in all ways try and destroy the Reconstruction of the South. Grayson's historical root stock.

No less an authority than historian David Barton says in his book 'Setting the Record Straight: American History in Black & White' that not only did the Democrats work hand-in-glove with the Ku Klux Klan for generations, they started the KKK and endorsed its mayhem.

Grayson condemns himself and his own Party through his ignorant, inflammatory comparison of the Tea Party to the Ku Klux Klan by brining once again to memory that it is the Democrats who worked tirelessly to keep African-Americans in chains and advocated brutal violence against any who challenged Democrat thuggery. (one might say that tradition continues)

Robert Byrd, former Klansman, was the one of the leaders of the Democrats in the Senate for decades. But were people informed of his insidious past?

Conpare the coverage Byrd got to Strom Thurmond or David Duke.

I wonder why they were covered differently?
