Richard J. Daley, democrat, was mayor for 21 years, but hardly a LIBERAL!

en.wikipedia.org

"The confrontation was not created by the police; the confrontation was created by the people who charged the police. Gentlemen, let's get the thing straight, once and for all. The policeman isn't there to create disorder; the policeman is there to preserve disorder."

Rostow, Cary D.; Robert D. Davis (2004). A Handbook for Psychological Fitness-for-Duty Evaluations in Law Enforcement. Routledge. pp. 18. ISBN 0789023962.Said during the civil disorders associated with the Democratic National Convention in 1968.

"Fuck you, you Jew son of a bitch, you lousy mother-fucker, go home."

David Farber (1994). Chicago '68. University of Chicago Press. pp. pg 145(b),pg 249(a). ISBN 0226238016.Said to Senator Abe Ribicoff of Connecticut when the Senator challenged Daley's use of force during the 1968 Democratic National Convention.

" We shall reach greater and greater platitudes of achievment."
Richard J. Daley

Ted, the point is that California isn't wealthy because of liberalism. California is liberal because of wealth.

Of course its in part due to liberalism. Hi tech doesn't do well in wingerland. Even the southern hi tech centers.....Austin and the Raleigh are liberal islands surrounded by wingers.

Why do you screw with you head and make believe that reality is something other than reality?

Detroit and Chicago have been controlled by liberals for decades. How come they aren't "shining examples of liberalism" like California supposedly is?


Wrong. Detroit and Chicago were controlled by Dems. Dem /= liberalism. I was a liberal long before I joined the Dem party. In fact, there are Dems who are centrists and some Dems who are wingers.

P.S. - By the way, nice try injecting race into the discussion. You almost made me not get my point across. Maybe you fear the truth.

I can't help it if you make racist comments pretending they are something else.
