[Political Junkie Too]

I was just going to post this.

Somebody tell Limbaugh that the premise is NOT that the South takes over the United States.

The premise is that the South splits off into its own country at the Mason-Dixon line.

Rush, if the "TRUMPSTERS" were serious about repealing ObamaCare and getting lower taxes,
they'd already have several PRIMARY Candidates signed up to challenge the congressmens who sided against Cruz's and Lee's Amendment to the bill.

But they don't !

He was rivaling that with some of his yammering today about ‘segregationist Democrats opposing civil rights’, casting them as Leftists.

Well guess what, opponents of the Civil Rights Act included both Barry Goldwater and Ronald Reagan. George Wallace and Bull Connor may have been Democrats and segregationists, but it’s a crock to claim that they opposed the civil rights movement because they were ‘Leftists’. The Left was unified in their support of the Civil Rights movement. But go back and read copies of Buckley’s National Review from the 60s and you will find NR opposed for a variety of reasons. That’s simply fact.

If Rush wants to align himself with the Rockefeller Republicans, Dirksen Republicans, and the Mike Mansfield Democrats who passed Lyndon Johnson’s social revolution he’s certainly free to do so. But he’s not free to rewrite history and pass it off as “conservative”, a habit he shares with Hannity.

Of course in his defense Rush isn’t doing this with the intent to deceive. He simply didn’t pay any attention to the history that he was living through as a teen and has never bothered to see what he missed. So he’s saying what he imagines could have happened like he did with his idea that the Confederacy sought to conquer the entire US and not just separate and go their own way.
