The Oklahoma Rebellion and the Need For More
worldnetdaily.com — "One of the more disgusting sights for me to is to watch a president, congressman or federal judge take an oath to uphold and defend the United States Constitution, when in reality they either hold constitutional principles in contempt or they are ignorant of those principles." Yes the very reason we need to vote in the Constitutionalists Party.

- AThoughtOrTwo, on 07/16/2008, -2/+6And, as always, the House (filled with those who want the best for themselves and their homestate)passed this and the Senate (filled with those aspiring to FEDERAL jobs) refused to vote on it. Those in the Senate should remember THE PEOPLE take that as a NO vote.
Teach them a lesson PEOPLE!!! - congresssucks, on 07/16/2008, -2/+4If those in government are not there to support the Constitution, then why are they there?
- truth4freedom, on 07/16/2008, -1/+4That is how we do it in Oklahoma! I fly my southern cross with pride and will not submit to the ever increasing tide of federal meddling in state afairs. Time to return to our Constitution and Bill of Rights. Time to tell the feds to butt out.

The conservative segregationists (the current southern Republicans) would have voted statewide (blacks were not allowed to vote) to continue segregation. Earl Warren was the greatest American of the 20th century.
- fredrick1, on 07/17/2008, -0/+3beastwood you need to read up on history and you would see it was democrats that opposed blacks having the right to vote and Republicans that supported passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 that allowed blacks to vote. Democrat Sen. Robert Byrd filibustered for 14 hours trying to stop passage of the bill. Democrats wanted to keep the 'Jim Crow laws' in place. Democrat Sen. Richard Russell made the final arguments against passing the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Republican Minority Leader Everett Dirksen got the Republicans to support passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. He also stated this "Stronger than all the armies is an idea whose time has come." He continued, "The time has come for equality of opportunity in sharing in government, in education, and in employment. It will not be stayed or denied. It is here!"
So go ahead believe what Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and Quasi Imfume have told you how dems gave blacks the right to vote.
