What did Limbaugh say?
It came when he was discussing whether or not there had been compromise among the Founders, in response to something Christie said today. Rush’s comment was somewhat indirect, and a case of arguing the premise. The premise being that the evil slaveholders of the South were the reason that there had been some compromise among the Founders, who otherwise were noble and pure. But this was only necessary because those southern slaveholders were all Democrats. The fact that there were no Democrats in 1776 and that George Washington was a southern slaveholder and if anything a Federalist didn’t intrude into this yarn.
