I would pick both, but there is no multiple choice.
Yes
Yes
If the TEA Party were around in 1964, would they have been against Civil Rights?

Stupid question.
Actually, for a UTSA student, that's creme de la creme.
I noticed that both choices were "Yes." Interesting.
I noticed the school the OP attended.
... an "unnecessary intrusion into states rights". Jim Crow laws were all passed by the states.
Another "Tea Party are racists" thread?
Q: You know who filibustered the 1964 Civil Rights act for more than 14 hours?
A: This guy
they are in 2010, so I assume they would be in 1964
is that Strom Thurmand? You do realize that he was originally a democrat right? He then , appropriately, moved over to the GOP! Great civil rights record.....![]()
They would have been FOR civil rights but AGAINST Lyndon Johnson's "Great Society".
right-wingers, conservatives, Repugs, rurals, bubbas, red-states are generally racist, while there are scattered exceptions to the rule.
("we value the black vote" - dubya at NAACP meeting, not that Repugs value black people)
A er/Nixon's Southern Strategy, still alive today, was blatantly racist.
Tea party is dominated by old white men who seem to be unemployed and have time to wave misspelled, racist, slandering placards at tea party astroturf jerkoffs.
and you are an ignorant, uninformed asshole...
Wow that's wierd..I feel the exact same way about you..go figure
Considering you are a pimple on the ass of this messageboard I could care less about your opinion.

That's Robert Byrd in the pic.
I know but as usual the dead enders fail to present an entire picture.... just soundbites and selective editing..par for the course.
The votes of congress are a matter of public record. No need for "selective editing".
I see. And your handful of one sentence posts completes the picture for us. Thanks.

We know what Rand Paul thinks, lolz.
Who's the loser that creates such a poll?
How genteel.
We'll see if "Tea Party" ever gets a chance to prove its bona fides on civil rights and scaling back the welfare state, or whether it becomes a sub-brand of the GOP instead..
True, and it's a view which Barry Goldwater held at the time. It really isn't a stretch to think tea partiers could think the same way given fundamental views regarding private property. The main issue to me is why they would be so angry about being seen to oppose the CRA of 1964 for precisely that fundamental reason.
