Moar GOP Outreach - Dave Daubenmire Regrets the Union Won the Civil War
Outreach? It is true that these past few years of GOP reflection and re-orientation has now sped past outreach and right into “reach-around” territory:
In his column last week, Daubenmire said “an argument can be made that the wrong side won the [Civil War]” since “government tyranny has exploded since the battle over states’ rights was lost.”
“It has been said that the Gettysburg Address was the most famous speech in American History, but that it would have carried more weight if President Lincoln was referencing the brave Confederate soldiers who were fighting against big-government tyranny,” he added. “Has there ever been a more Christian general than Robert E. Lee?”
A study of the war will show that the fight was over states [sic] rights more than slavery, and an argument can be made that the wrong side won the war. Government tyranny has exploded since the battle over states’ rights was lost. It has been said that the Gettysburg Address was the most famous speech in American History, but that it would have carried more weight if President Lincoln was referencing the brave Confederate soldiers who were fighting against big-government tyranny. Has there ever been a more Christian general than Robert E. Lee?
That is right - because when 40% of your citizens exist in bondage, enforced by the state, nothing. and I mean nothing, represents smaller, freer, less oppressive governance.
Let the ‘outreach’ ‘reach-around’ continue…
