On This Day in 1964, Democrats Filibustered the Civil Rights Act
Posted by Jim Hoft on Sunday, June 10, 2012, 7:11 PM
June 10, 1964, was a dramatic day in the United States Senate. For the first time in its history, cloture was invoked on a civil rights bill, ending a record-breaking filibuster by Democrats that had consumed fifty-seven working days. The hero of the hour was minority leader Senator Everett McKinley Dirksen (R-Ill.).
On June 10, 1964, Democrats filibustered the Civil Rights Act.
Grand Old Partisan reported, via DANEgerus:
On this day in 1964, Everett Dirksen (R-IL), the Republican Leader in the U.S. Senate, condemned the Democrats’ 57-day filibuster against the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Leading the Democrats in their opposition to civil rights for African-Americans was Senator Robert Byrd (D-WV). Byrd, who got into politics as a recruiter for the Ku Klux Klan, spoke against the bill for fourteen straight hours. Democrats still call Robert Byrd “the conscience of the Senate.”
In his speech, Senator Dirksen called on the Democrats to end their filibuster and accept racial equality.
Michael Zak wrote about this in his book Back to Basics for the Republican Party and reminds us that Democrats, the party of Slavery, Secession, Segregation and the KKK… fought against equality.
Ask any Democrat bigwig privately and they’ll tell you OWS is DEAD. Why? Because OWS is radioactive to the Left’s PR. And also, because OWS has quite obviously faded away.
General George Patton’s Ghost
Yesterday in Zuccotti Park, New York City, headquarters of the Occupy Wall Street movement, confused Occupy activist Jonas Field spoke up on behalf of George Zimmerman, the self-appointed Neighborhood Watch guard who shot and killed unarmed African-American teen Trayvon Martin in February of 2012.
Forensic voice identification experts recently confirmed beyond a 99% certainty that a voice heard calling for help during a 911 call made shortly before the fatal shooting was not that of Zimmerman, as Zimmerman originally claimed.
However, 99% is NOT enough for Field.
“Someone’s liberty is potentially at stake here!” the outraged Field told a Mother Jones reporter. “A well-meaning citizen should not be arrested on the basis of a mere 99% certainty. That’s what Occupy is all about, standing up for that 1% who have no one to support their cause.”
Field’s Occupy comrades looked on with some bafflement as Field went on to decry the perceived injustice of police’s failure to definitively promise NEVER to arrest Zimmerman on ANY criminal homicide charges at ANY point in the future.
Field’s roommate and fellow Occupy activist, 24-year-old Dan Cohen of Brooklyn, surreptitiously nudged his friend. “Dude, we’re actually part of the 99%, not the 1%.”
“Exactly!” said Field. “We’re ALL part of that conspiracy on some level, intentionally or not. And we ALL need to take responsibility for standing up for the underdog 1%, like Zimmerman.”
He continued, “99% my ass! If it was MY ass on the line, 99% wouldn’t be good enough. Why should it be good enough for Z-dog?”
Another Occupy demonstrator, 36-year-old Anita Hague of Mahattan, asked, “But shouldn’t 99% be enough for the police just to arrest Zimmerman? He’d still get a jury trial.”
“Sure, maybe 99% is sufficient under the present system,” answered Field. “And that’s exactly why we need to CHANGE the present system. This kid Trayvon has everything and everyone on his side – the media, his family, the public. But who’s standing up for George Zimmerman?”
Hague responded, “You do realize that Trayvon is dead.”
“Sure, he may be physically dead,” agreed Field, “but we can’t let that make us forget that someone else’s reputation is being MURDERED. I for one am not going to stand by and let that happen. Just because other Occupy-ers may be too ‘Pre-Occupied’ to take any action doesn’t mean I won’t.”
Field added, “If I need to become the first person to Occupy Occupy, I’m willing to be that man.”

That shit was funny!! The guitar army will have a battalion of bass and cello players too, to add “DRAMA” to the scene also!!! The artillary for their guitar army will be composed of a hundred smelly dirt-bags throwing sandwich and freezer bags filled with excrement, dumping 55GAL drums filled with biohazardous materials and such. They’ll be called the BROWN-BOMBERS!! And they’ll have a psychological effect on their enemy 10x worse than Atilla the Hun and his Hoardes had on their enemies with/by being able to smell the enemy before being able to see them!! Due to them handling so much umm,
well, shit!!

For once I agree with you, Bill. Show the world what the Left is made of, put your best foot forward, demonstrate how Leftists operate in the real world. Show the level of maturity, intellect, knowledge, tolerance and good will that the Left has to offer.

Yeah, it’s only a matter of time before these thugs become murderous and violent.

It occurs to me that anyone with a penis on his face would feel quite at home with those who have never been toilet trained. After all, every time Maher sneezes he does some public tinkling of his own…

Occupy is hardly radical, embracing a sedentary strategy toward topological occupation (hence the name) and a retro-epistemological approach toward the effectuation of change. In simple terms, Occupy is old school, Prussian old school, believing that the seizure of ground is what matters. To the poststructuralists and speculative realists amongst us, Occupy is a laughing stock. Their playbook is more than 200 years out of date.
Tea Party, on the other hand… that’s radical. Deterritorializing and reterritorializing politics, engaging in extreme rapid mobility and de/re-deployment in political spaces? Becoming-movement one day, disappearing another, and reappearing to change the outcome of primary elections? This is innovative, emergent and truly radical.
Tea Party, mind you, could have been an ally of Barack Obama. He campaigned on reform of the government, reducing the debt, getting the corrupt-o-crats, fat-cat elites, and special interests thrown out of DC. This is the same agenda and I’d remind those who are historically aware that this resonates with both French revolutionary momentum and mid-1800s European proto-middle class movements that threw out the monarchies. Barack could have been the most important President in 200 years… but it turns out he was both already owned by the elites, and he was a remarkably lazy man, interested in golfing, jetting around on his new fleet of 747s, hanging out with other empty people in Hollywood, and in general, avoiding work.
Tea Party isn’t owned by anybody. Romney’s a blue blood and he’s a hair’s length away from having it turn on him and bite. If Mahler wasn’t so intellectually limited, he’d ask “If only Tea Party would engage and educate Occupy.” Then things would get interesting.

Did he just put the tea party up as the model to imitate? He’s telling them to follow the tea party’s example. I think he’s impressed by it! Unfortunately for him, tea partiers can do something owsers will never be able to…
Identify the goals & principles underlying their cause and explain why they believe in them using calm reasoning logic.
So owsers can never be anything like tea partiers no matter how hard they try, no matter how much they want to.

Very nice…… I suggest you send that to Maher…..and Nancy Pelosi…. who claim to be ‘forward’ thinkers….

Two other things tea partiers can do that owsers cannot…

Hmmm…I’m just asking???

This guy is done. Why does anyone care what he says? He a complete loss; no redeeming qualities.

What’s with the gushing over the occutards all of a sudden? Fonda and Maher? OWS has been outed for the scum they are for months.

asshole bill maher. really.
as far as OWS, anyone see a correlation with china’s Mao Red Guard?
when do they start terrorizing campuses, maiming and killing teachers, professors or “rightists” ?
can we finally admit what they really are, then?

Look at the history of the Soviet Union – the Russian equivalent to the OWS demanded that all power be granted to the Workers’ Soviets. They were their leaders, their voice
And 50-60 million dead later…
The Khmer Rouge let youth lead the way, re-set society to allow a restart.
1.5-2 million dead later (and a greater percentage than those Russian slackers)…
And Bill Ayers, The One’s spiritual guru, estimated that it would not take more than 25% of the US population executed to impose collectivization
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result every time. This is also known as the Bullwinkle Hat Trick (that trick NEVER works. This time for sure!)

The progressives have had a bad case of “Tea Party Envy” since the movement arose and galvanized conservatives. A peaceful and succesful grassroots movement that led to one of the greatest electoral reversals in American political history. And it will hopefully put an end to the disastrous Obama “presidency” this November. Make it so!

Hey lighten up on little billie
Sean Hannity supports him,
well, Sean buys HBO, (but he says he doesn’t inhale) and switches the channel when little billie comes on
But he keeps sending HBO his money
I don’t think they care what channels he watches, as long as he keeps sending them a check

one can only ‘hope’ that ows keeps on rolling,
I mean, who in their right mind would encourage anarchy, crime and the destruction of the Civil Society?

The Original
Tea Party people are not just a bunch of radical people. They are people who are concerned and made sure their message was heard. They don’t care about the far right issues like “Bilderbergers”. They cared that their country was going off too far left, gifting only small groups of people without concern for the rest of the country.
OWS is just totally the opposite. All radicals. They care about only far left issues. They want the country to go farther left. They want to sacrifice the rights of the majority to benefit small groups of people. They don’t care about the country, only themselves and getting all they can at the expense of everyone.
They couldn’t be any different. The Tea Party doesn’t define the GOP. But if the Dems want OWS to define them . . . they should just go for it.

I think we all agree Bill. In fact, I think it already is the DNC version of the Tea Party. Congrats. Hope you brought your antibacterial wipes.

It already is, but you use Koolaid instead of Tea.

Dems are trying very hard to get occupy up and running again but, so far, no luck. Perhaps they need to call upon Chief Warren of Mass as their intel. leader to speak up about this.
