Why do libs hate Manifest Destiny so? According to this article, it figuratively went up a frozen mountain pass to die.
Why hate something so grand a failure? Manifest Destiny didn’t work, right? The massive number of American liberals living on the west coast is just a delusion. The U.S. is still a cluster of states east of the Mississippi.

I believe that Lincoln was opposed to manifest destiny when he was a Whig Congressman. He made a speech against Polk and defending the claims of Mexico. Cost him his House seat.
