Nothing profound, uplifting, or patriotic. He said "You know what I just did? Gave thhe South to the republicans". He wasn't exactly a prophet, just politically savvy. The rethugs had morphed from the party of Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, and Dwight Eisenhower to a gang of racist thugs, greedy crooks, and back-stabbing bastards. The republicans are that in name only; what we have in their place could well destroy this nation. When LBJ signed civil rights legislation in 1964, you know what he said to reporters?
