Ignorance or avoidance of history, namely the transformation of major political party ideals, is never a valid justification. Although people keep on trying.

Blaming modern Democrats for stuff the Dixiecrats did is about as smart as blaming modern Republicans for the stuff they sell at Banana Republic.

Pro Tip: it’s not very smart

So you can’t name any either??

How’s that “shift in ideals” working out for you??

“fighting to preserve the confederacy”??

This is news to me.

Was obama/biden “preserving the confederacy” during their time in office??

No, they weren’t defending confederate statues. Or the confederate flag.

Hello everyone and welcome to our first edition of "NAME…THAT…REPUBLICAN. This is the game where we challenge you to name the Republican(s) who were in power for, voted for or participated in the following acts:

-the import of slaves from Africa
-the oppression of slaves from Africa
-secession from the United States of America
-the army of the confederacy
-Civil War
-“treason”

So everyone, it’s time to “NAME …THAT… REPUBLICAN”

Are you ready to smear the name of Thomas Jefferson, then? He founded what became the Democratic Party.

What about when obama attended the vance/aycock dinner??

Winston-Salem Journal

Democrats in Asheville surprised by Obama

Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama made a surprise visit yesterday to a political dinner in Asheville, praising party candidates all the way down the November ballot.

Both of those guys were just voted out by the pelosi bunch.

You switched to “defending” now, but that’s okay.

Where was the mob then?? biden is one of the guys who was in office for 8 years. Now he’s your fearless leader of blm reckoning.

Not buying it.

Smear?? No.

We know who Jefferson was. I toured Monticello a few years ago. It was informative about all things Jefferson.

It’s our shared history. He can no longer hurt anyone.

You keep going further and further away from your OP. Why?

2020 democrats aren’t defending or fighting for confederacy. 2020 Republicans are.

No one is “defending or fighting for the confederacy”. That’s absurd. Election year nonsense.

I’m being dragged from my OP by tangential nonsense because no one can answer the question posed.

moonshine:

instead of name that republican lets play name that conservative,since the ones fighting to preserve slavery were all conservatives…

Who specifically?

Yes they are.

I did. Democrats didn’t import slaves. Democrats didn’t exist until 1828. Which was 21 years after the country ended the importation of slaves.

Southern Democrats DID perpetuate and defend slavery. However 2020 Democrats are trying to remove confederacy propaganda from public spaces while 2020 Republicans are fighting to keep them.

That answered every single one of your questions.

It’s the logical conclusion of your post.

As I said, I forgot the year, but nowhere in my posts above do you see me saying that democrats imported slaves.

I simply asked to NAME…THAT…REPUBLICAN.

You haven’t.

ohknow35:

So you’re saying that democrats didn’t import slaves, they just perpetuated the institution and continued the trading internally before seceding to preserve it, which lead to the deaths of hundreds of thousands.

Was this you or someone else?

ohknow35 · 2020-07-24T18:36:46.499Z

That was me. And nowhere in that post does it say that “democrats imported slaves”.

So there were no democrats importing slaves after that??

You learn something new every day here at Hannity.

What about this one? You or someone else?

That’s a question. See the squiggly things after the words.
