Hey Jethro, gimme that their box of matches to light up that straw man! Modern American Conservatism is a euphemism for Modern James Crow Conservatism. Have another glass of that fine vintage of 1861 status quo produced by that distinguished winery, States Rights & Sons of the South!At that time the parties were both very conservative....Really? Where could they be found in the 1850's forward? The Boston or New York slums which were chocker block full of lily white immigrants from Europe at the time along with the other port of entry cities at that time and beyond?And the ghetto bigots are politically liberal.....
No......the lefties are trying to smear Modern American Conservatives with the stain of racism...by labeling democrats in the south who owned slaves "conservative" .....that is a lie...
The Modern American Conservative believes in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights...specifically that all men are created equal....something the democrats have never believed.....
Modern American Conservatives are what used to be called "Classical Liberals." But they have to hide the racism of the democrats, then and now, because they need the black vote.....so they lie and try to smear the people who freed the black slaves and helped them to get their rights as citizens......if the democrats ever lose the black vote..they are finished.
Tell us what wasn't conservative about Southern Democrats.
They were conservatives. They were trying to conserve the slavery of the democrat party.
They are not in any way connected to Modern American Conservatives...which is who you are trying to equate with them...which is a lie.....a vile one at that.
Modern American Conservatives want to conserve the founding ideas....that all men are created equal.....the Constitution and especially the Bill of Rights are what we are trying to conserve....
Modern democrats...are trying to conserve their power over all races...not just blacks.....
