Our March to Reconciliation


"This morning we continue our march to reconciliation by removing the Jefferson Davis Confederate statue from its pedestal of reverence," said Mayor Mitch Landrieu in a statement. [More]
That must be why the workers wore masks. With "progressives," every day is Opposite Day.

Mitch is used to lying, of course, as usual. He needs all the distractions he can arrange to take focus off his utter inability to do a thing about his constituents and the real problems they have.

Unstatues. Base on time-honored principles.

I wonder how soon Lincoln statues will get Talibaned.  Talk about a racist:
More problematic were Lincoln’s views on race. He held opinions not very different from those of the majority of his racist countrymen. Even if slavery was wrong, “there is a physical difference between the white and black races that will for ever forbid the two races from living together on terms of social and political equality.” His solution was a form of ethnic cleansing: shipping blacks off to Liberia, or Haiti, or Central America — anywhere as long as it wasn’t the United States.
That memorial in Washington has to go!

The Cultural Cleansing continues. We must eventually wake up and realize they are at war with us. Or shall we continually suffer the slings and arrows of "outrageous fortune"?
