re: #339 HappyWarrior

Oh I know it. Just funny to see a certain conservative publication say that. Hell though Beck hates on Lincoln. But then again Lincoln hatred by the right has become a surprisingly popular pastime these past six years. I wasn’t even aware of it. I really thought the only people who hated Lincoln were neo-Confederate whiners who still aren’t over a war that ended 149 years ago but there’s a lot of people on the right that hate Lincoln.

It’s easy enough to understand this. When the GOP engaged in the southern strategy, they imported a large dose of lost-cause neo Confederacy along with the disgruntled racists they were courting.

That dose of poison has been spreading through the party since then, and it remains to be seen if it will be fatal for the party (or country).
