why anyone would be a conservative. What is their philosophy? The Constitution. What is any black doing in the Republican party? After the civil rights vote, couldn't the same be asked about the Democrat party? Where are the conservative intellectuals? George Will, Charles Krauthammer and a dozen other scholars are leading the conservative intellectual battle.

I specifically said "conservative's filibustered". I did not say Republican's. That is the whole difference. Not in context there isn't. You specifically said "What is any black doing in the Republican party? The conservatives filabustered." If you didn't mention Republicans I would not have mentioned Republicans. KOAN: The voting record below shows how you completely twisted what I said. No that voting record is irrelevant to the question of whether or not I twisted what you said. And in fact I did no such thing. Whether you where being unintentionally sloppy or you where not debating in good faith, I don't know, but you made a statement about how black people shouldn't support Republicans based on votes that where largely Democratic. I called you on it. and too much to respond to I responded to the points you made, I see you can't defend most of them.
