re: #75 jaunte

Courageous Republican leadership doing the right thing after only nine murders.

Nine murders (this time) and 50+ years (actually it’s 54 years since the flag was first flown in protest of desegregation efforts in SC).

The GOP is the party standing in opposition to equal rights and equal protection under law today. What Lincoln did in no way reflects on the current GOP efforts deny rights to minorities (up to and including disinfrachisement efforts, applauding the VRA decision by the Supreme Court, which calls on Congress to re-enact the formula provisions, and which they’ve done nothing so far, etc.).

The Party of Lincoln is the GOP in name only. Their itinerary and agenda has incorporated the conservative secessionists and race-baiters who opposed the CRA and VRA and desegregation and equal rights for all under the law.
