12. the original "know nothing" party did not reject facts and science |
|
but were the original elitists. Anti immigration, anti catholic and anti German. They are known as the "know nothings" because it was a secret group who were to say "I know nothing" when asked any questions about the organization/party. AKA nativists (or the Lou Dobbs party?)

10. Of course, I didn't approve of such underhanded tactics when used by Hillary Clinton |
|
and may have helped sway me off the fence to Obama.
