You're descending into mysticism and claims of clairvoyance.

And you accuse me of ad hominem attacks? And are you saying that the Democrat Party had not and still has not this evil slavery mentality in which it has not turned away from before the Civil War?

To paraphrase you,

SLAVE slave SLAVE slave SLAVE slave SLAVE slave SLAVE slave SLAVE slave SLAVE slave ....."

Did I forget to point out that slavery was everywhere legal, except in Mexico (where the law was honored in the breach -- ask any Mexican Indio) and England?

So what is your point? You're doing the same thing that a workman who owns only one tool would do. Abusing the job, and your fellow discussants, when you just rant about slavery, slave-slave-slave, as a form of abuse in lieu of argument.

And you accuse me of ad hominem attacks?

Well, yeah. And you just did it again.

Mysticism is what you get when you strip away all facts and data, and just demand that other people believe what you tell them because it's true on some metaphysical level invisible to them because of their own shortcomings.

Aimee Semple McPherson/Billy Graham-type calls to belief and subjection of the self to the Higher Power are fine in a big tent-meeting, but not in discussions of U.S. history, I don't think, and not in political discussions.
