Now THAT is what I would call "astonishing."
First, I'm not sure where I stated that the republicans are the only people who have exhibited their racist bend, but just because you perceive it doesn't mean I said it.
Second, I'm not sure where my comment suggests that causality of racism is bound to one's political affiliation. Clearly it's the exact opposite. Racism is based on a combination of fear of the unknown, crippling insecurity leading to fear of discovering facts that undermine your opinions, and an ability to accept illogical and irrational concepts. People with those traits are overwhelmingly attracted to the republican party because facts and science are, as evinced in many polls and studies, not just uncomfortable things, but demonized. On the other hand, Dems believe in science and tend to demand evidence before accepting concepts - an uncomfortable environment for racists.
Third, Since the legislation under the Great Society, the racist Dems made very public moves to the republican party. The republican party has been a haven for racist candidates ever since and a simple accounting of public events like this one empirically demonstrates that fact rather conclusively.
