Why Do Republicans Feel Compelled To Say "We're The Party of Lincoln?"

[MarcATL]

When was the last time you voted for a Democrat?

In November for mayor of Oakland.

I'll have to keep a close eye on you.

 

[Cellblock2429]

Again, you are sorely mistaken. I am not rightwing. I am of the Leave Me Alone To Do My Thing faction in opposition to the Control Over Everyone Else one.

You Dem loons keep trashing the GOP as racists to cover up the fact that the most Racist policies in the country were created and promoted by Dems.

When was the last time you voted for a Democrat?

/----/ 1972 George McGovern. That was the only time I ever did.

 

[Billy000]

What is it, exactly, are they trying to say, or communicate when they spout that line?

I'd love to have the self-professed Republicans, Conservatives and other assorted Rightwingers of USMB weigh in on this.

Proceed...

What’s mostly stupid about it is that they they like to point out that democrats used to be a racist KKK party without seemingly to realize that also means Lincoln no longer has anything to do with the Republican Party because of the ideological switch.

The ideological switch is a bogus myth you prog loons promote to deflect attention from your own racism and racist past.

Lol then why does the KKK embrace the Republican Party and the Democratic Party rejects them?

If you stalk me, "I got a .45 and a shovel, I doubt anybody would miss you."

10 points if you get the reference without looking it up.

And whites of both parties still benefit from the slavery and apartheid both parties participated in.

Facts are facts.

So are you a purist just seeking the truth on who and who has a racist past?

Is that it?

I generally see it brought up in response to crazy talk that slavery is still relevant, or that whites or republicans should feel guilty about it.


I think they are trying to say, "if you think there is any weight to be given to the idea of White Guilt over slavery, you should consider the weight to be given to the sacrifices of our ancestors, that died that you pinheads can be free"

I feel like I should know that line, but I can't bring it to memory.

So where is it from?

 

[Correll]

What is it, exactly, are they trying to say, or communicate when they spout that line?

They are just stating a fact. ....

Why are they seemingly compelled to repeat that fact over, and over, and over again throughout the media, when no one ever asks them to?

Why do you think that is Sport?

Who brought it up today?

The KKK is an eensy beensy historical artifact. There are more members of the Jedi Religion in the U.S. than there are KKK members.

There are orders of magnitude more Racist Dems in the U.S. than there are fringe KKKers.

Simple

Liberals hate "facts" because it make them feel queasy and want to throw up.

So it's fun to watch them get nauseous when you tell them the "fact" that Lincoln was a Republican. ...

I know, they hate it so bad, that they are tearing down their own democrat monuments to try to hide the past

That's a new one, but OK.

Nope. I am pushing back against the false narratives being spewed by the Left. The Identity Politics which the Left has promoted for decades is destroying our country, so I will call shenanigans whenever I see it.

The classic movie "Clueless" based on the classic Jane Austen novel "Emma".

The Dad says that to Cher's date.

Facts are facts.

And blacks didn't benefit from slavery?

Your here instead of living in in a mud huts in Africa

 

[Pilot1]

Not this Republitarian. I want nothing to do with the dictator Lincoln. Destroy the country, and its reason for being in order to "keep it together"? No, don't think that was very wise nor "American" at all. He was a power hungry, centralist, and created a collective state to rival the USSR.

 

[blackhawk]

Lincoln was a Republican if you are a Republican you are the party of Lincoln just like many on the left like to say or used to like to say they are the Party of FDR or JFK.
