not a **** or a Chinaman. Uncle Will says that the Lord made a white man from dust[,] a **** from mud, then He threw up what was left and it came down a Chinaman. He does hate Chinese and Japs. So do I. It is race prejudice I guess. But I am strongly of the opinion that Harry S. Truman

That's because Dixiecrats fled to the Republican Party when LBJ signed the civil rights bill in the 1960's.  Comparing today's Republicans to Know-Nothings is apt, as comparing today's Republican Dixiecrats to previous Republican liberals is just as bogus as comparing today's liberal Democrats to Dixiecrats.  FAIL
