This is one of the big myths of recent American history.  The Democrats were the segregationists.  Do you know that a greater percentage of Republican senators voted for the Civil Rights Act than Democrats?  I mean, I saw Doris Kearns Goodwin on TV the other day.  You know, she got very close to LBJ &#8212; I mean, ahem, really close &#8212; doing research.  (You know what I mean by &#8220;really close.&#8221;)<\/line><\/p>\n<p>They loved LBJ \u2019cause he was a bully.  He was a bully, and he was working the phones.  The story was he was pounding the pavement.  He was calling Democrats night and day trying to convince them to vote for this, \u2019cause they were segregationists. The Democrats were the KKK. The Democrats were Bull Connor, the dogs, and the fire hoses.  It\u2019s one of the most amazing historical reversals ever.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: You know, I\u2019m watching Obama. He\u2019s at the LBJ library.
