Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't it a Republican who freed the slaves?

Yep, but they have an excuse for everything they get wrong. They just say today's Republican party is nothing like the old righteous Republican party of old. And magically, they get around answering that question.
If I'm remembering my history correctly, the Republican party was founded specifically as an abolitionist (or at least anti-slavery) party. But, please, give the dimocRATS credit for their accomplishments -- founding the KKK and passing Jim Crow laws. :=)
