Dr. Thomas Sowell: "Many of the seemingly compassionate policies promoted by the progressives in later years — whether in economics or in education — have had outcomes the opposite of what was expected. One of the tragedies of our times is that so many people judge by rhetoric, rather than by results."
Not really unexpected by the ones pushing the agenda, just by those who judged by the rhetoric and not the results. I fully believe LBJ knew that he was starting a way to put what he considered uppity ni@@ers in their place. He was a full blown racist and never changed. He just put on a paper-mache face and let the cone-shaped hood lie on his back.
