No you haven’t. You are lying. I am 60 years old, and have followed politics for over 40 years, and I have NEVER heard anyone say that. I’ve heard plenty of people accuse Democrats of that, and I believe it’s probably true of some Democrats, but none of them are saying that out loud. For you to have heard “more than a couple”? Nah, that’s a lie.

These Negroes, they're getting pretty uppity these days and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we've got to do something about this, we've got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference. For if we don't move at all, then their allies will line up against us and there'll be no way of stopping them, we'll lose the filibuster and there'll be no way of putting a brake on all sorts of wild legislation. It'll be Reconstruction all over again.- LBJ
