Nice little narrative you’ve got there. The problem with it is Republicans did participate in the commemoration of the 50th anniversary of Selma. There are some media outlets that want you keep believing the lie.

The Times cropped out Laura and George Bush from the Selma march. It's just another instance of Bush derangement syndrome & race politics.

Aren't they always trying to rewrite history? Seems par for the course for such a ,yellow journalistic, rag. Shameful reporting.— James (@yampajim) March 8, 2015
@forewit At some point, wouldn't you think saner minds on the left would start to tire of being manipulated by the press?

You would think. The Left, not so much.
