Again this post is very short but it should be extremely provocative and thus I think is worthy of repeating here in my blog.
The impeachment was not partisan. Johnson was a vile, hateful, racist, bigot. He undid much of the benefits gained with the deaths 600,000 Americans. He returned Blacks to a kind of non-citizenship in the South, the consequences which we are still suffering today. The man was justly and properly impeached and John F. Kennedy was a fool to consider the despicable acts of Sen. Edmund G. Ross a profile in courage. It was a profile in racism. A profile in infamy.
