Democrat Senator and former VP running mate of Hillary Clinton, Tim Kaine (VA) on Tuesday said the United States created slavery.
To think this degenerate liar almost became Vice President of the United States.
“The United States didn’t inherit slavery from anybody. We created it,” said Tim Kaine as he droned on about racism in America.

He is always been an idiot. He showed it best when he was Hillary’s VP nominee. What a maroon.
A hugh maroon.
After 1865 they owned them all, both black and white. The Republicans of that era were big government, corrupt, tax and spend liberals. They ushered in an age of "Crony Capitalism" that became known as "The Gilded Age."
They are very akin to modern Democrats, and they resided in exactly the same big cities that modern Democrats still control today.
You mean Verginius Rufus of 14 A.D. to 97 A.D.?
I will take Moses’s rendition. He was ACTUALLY THERE.
Now why would Republicans be voting for a pro Slavery amendment?
Reagan was a Democrat until the party moved over to the left.
Thanks for that list, though I think it falls on infertile ground.
The Great Pyramids date back to the Old Kingdom, at least 1000 years before the Israelite's were enslaved in Egypt (probably more).
What part of that don't you understand? And even if, if, if, they were there and were making bricks for the Pyramid (which used huge blocks of stone) do you think for one minute that bricks made with mud and straw would have built the Pyramids? And lasted as long?
Actually it wasn't about that. They had no intention of freeing any slaves when the war began. It wasn't until nearly two years into the war that Lincoln issued an order to start freeing slaves.
They fully intended to defeat the South, and then continue business as usual, including keeping the slaves exactly where they were.
You may not be aware of this, but those slaves accounted for 73% of all the money the Federal government received. The Republicans of that era were Tax and Spend Liberals, and they wanted those federal revenues to pay for their big government projects. They wanted to build canals, and railroads, and roads, and everything that modern liberals want to spend tax dollars on.
It was quite corrupt, and there were a lot of kickbacks going on for all their government funded projects.
People really don't want to look at this history too closely. It's actually very ugly, and nobody comes out of it looking good. There is a reason the Grant Administration was considered the most corrupt administration in history, though people believe that Grant himself was not actually corrupt.
It's all those snake bastards that Lincoln put into government that became the corrupt influence peddlers. This is how Washington DC developed it's corrupt crony capitalist culture.
Your humor is lacking. But that’s another story. We think differently about Verginius Rufus and his contribution to B.C. beliefs. And that is not going to change, I’m sure.
But one interesting Rufus tidbit: he was killed when a LARGE book scroll fell on him.
Oh a thousand pardons: he died when we was lifting a large heavy book and it fell down. He slipped while trying to pick it up, and broke his hip.
Talk to school children and you'll find they believe that the USA is the only place that ever had legalized slavery.

Just saying that that is the name he/she uses here.
There it is!
I’ve never seen that name here. I thought you were being sarcastic! I’m sorry.
...but I still disagree with you...;)!
Except for the fact that the pro slavery argument was coming from the Democrats and they anti slavery position was held by the Republicans.
This massive disagreement became a national political conflict, and then a civil war.
You’ve overlooked the fact that no Republican owned a single slave.
If one did, you could show me his name.
Did he sign it?

Barbara/
Streisand?
Yes, Tim Kaine speaks much Barbara Streisand.
So does Barbara Streisand.
Yep, we wiped it out here and it cost almost 700,000 Americans their lives. The “reparations” were paid in full over 150 years ago.
