Lots of people do condemn Teddy and not just for hunting. Some condemn him for pushing a "living wage" and some other "progressive" ideas.
Lots of people condemn slaveholders, too.
People will condemn us someday.
Dead people don't care and the living shouldn't worry so much about how people will judge us in another century. It's really none of our business.
I blame Teddy Roosevelt for more than that. I blame him for being the catalyst that led to WW I and then WW II, the rise of the Soviet Union and the cold war. His third party run put Woodrow Wilson in office, and that led to all of the tragedy that we have faced since. If ever a US President should burn in hell it is Teddy Roosevelt, (alongside Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt, Millard Filmore, and a few other still living presidents.)
See what I mean?
He doesn't care how you feel.
“These Cecil threads have served the purpose of outing some real liberals among us, or as theyd probably prefer to be called, compassionate conservatives.
Yeah, “compassionate conservatives” as opposed to the heartless meanie run of the mill type conservative...I wish an eternity of the 7 levels of hell to whomever invented that term.
The idea of extraditing an American to Zimbabwe (Robert Mugabe hellhole) is beyond the pale.
Once that land was thye Bread basket of Africa—before hate and racism wrecked it. Now they starve—poverty striken while a small group lives like princes in palaces. Life is worse than when the whites ruled. Sad, but any history will tell you thats what happens—revolutions make things worse. France after 1789, Russia after 1918, China after 1950.
