Oh its the "look, we had slaves on our side fighting" defense...

Can you tell me how many black folks escaped the north and went down south to fight on the side of the confederacy???

Any stories of Harriet Tubman types helping freed black men escape to the South because of how much they wanted to fight for the Confederacy?? No?

Look, the North had black soliders too....MORE OF THEM.....

and they won ...…and 150 years later, dic suckers like you are still mad

you think farmers knew the intentions of democrats like they had internet access lol

Most of the south had no slaves, they were protecting their land and farms.. your narrative that people cared about slavery is because you are uneducated. And you lie to lie to blacks.. blacks weren’t a thought,, blacks were free, blacks owned slaves.. yoir dumb

Virginia eliminates holiday celebrating two Confederate generals


Dems in Virginia show their hatred for the constitution and the patriotic spirit of America by once again attacking the Confederacy...This time they do it not be taking down a statue, or changing a state flag, they do it by eliminating perhaps the greatest American holiday aside from Independence Day and American Jesus' birthday....and that is....Confederate Day...

"The Virginia House passed a bill that would eliminate a holiday celebrating two Confederate leaders and instead make Election Day a state holiday. Lee-Jackson Day honored Confederate generals Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson...Now, Virginia will no longer observe Lee-Jackson Day as a state holiday, but they won't be one holiday short. Election day, which takes place nationwide on the first Tuesday in November, will become a state holiday, WTVR reports."

WTF?? A holiday for elections?? Once again, the party of slavery shows its ugly face..First you dems lost the Civil War and you lost your slaves...and even today, even are losing more slaves (As in blacks) -- since they are leaving the Democrat plantation and voting for Trump.....and when blacks find out about Confederate Day being eliminated for Election Day -- I anticipate even more of them will be outraged and join the republican party in protest...

So now out of desperation, you want to dishonor the legacy of the 2 greatest abolitionist Democrats ever by doing something like this? Just to make it easier for more people (and by more people, I mean illegals and muslims) to vote in future elections by making election day a freaking holiday??

Remember this face....this is the America hating black racist that crafted this bill...State Senator Louise Lucas......This is the proof that the Democrat party, the party of slavery, the party against American values continues to attack and erase the very thing that made America great -- the Confederacy...

Some of the Virginia counties are considering joining West Virginia. I hope they'll pursue that option soon.

No they aren't.

It's neither unpartriotic nor unconstitutional to decide against a holiday honoring those who fought for the confederacy. How could it be?

BTW: People shouldn't lose sight of the fact that the two parties switched sides and policies in the latter part of the 20th Century.

It was easy when you clearly got triggered over my bad troll comment

Okay, not the response I expected but at least it's honest.

At this point I guess it would be customary to say "it's not your fault". But no, it is your fault.

And yet --- I just had a wag ( 2aguy ) try to tell me "the Democrats started the Civil War and fought the Republicans".

You'd like to say it was war between north and south, but in reality, it was war between Republicans and Democrats.

Might want to essplain the War Democrats then.

Might want to essplain Lincoln's running mate too.

Those who need explaining know not much about American history.

Republican party is established to stop expansion of slavery into territories and to abolish the slavery. If you were proponent of slavery or slave owner, you could not join the party, and party was primarily joined by northern Protestants, blacks, workers, farmers, former Whigs and, yes... some Democrats who were against the slavery. Democrats who supported slavery stayed in Democratic party. Just as racists stayed Democrats in south, despite leftist and revisionists today claim there was a imaginary "party switch". That means, all slaves in United States, some 4.5 million, at the brink of Civil war were owned by Democrats.

War Democrats were not against slavery, they were against Confederacy. Since they were pro slavery, they couldn't join Republican party, and those who supported Lincoln's Civil War policies joined Unionist party while avoiding being on "Republican" ticket. Therefore Lincoln's running mate was technically Unionist, formerly "War Democrat".

Is that clear enough for you? If not, find someone to essplain it to you.

"Big switch" You're so afraid of acknowledging history that you'll pervert it into a "Big Switch" as if you're turning the lights on and off to the White House Frickin' Christmas Tree.

In the late part of the 19th century the Republican Party was moving away from its Liberalism that championed Abolition and civil rights, and toward the deep pockets of emerging corporations, the railroads, Wall Street etc. At the same time the Democrats, having experimented with "fusion" parties, absorbed the burgeoning Populist movement (and party). These two poles are personified in the two parties' POTUS candidates, William McKinley and William Jennings Bryan. McKinley was also driving the US toward imperialism, which was a new direction, with the Spanish-American War, and the Philippines continuing after it.

The Democrats took on the constituencies of minorities, the labor class and farmers, immigrants, and of course with those minorities/immigrants came Jews, Catholics and eventually blacks in the 1930s. The Republicans took on the wealthy, the "haves" and the enormous wads of money that came with them. For a brief blip that trajectory was somewhat interrupted by Teddy Roosevelt who made a lot of noise about actually reeling in those corporations -- he was never in the plan to be President, he succeeded to it when McKinley was assassinated --- and that rocked the Republican boat. For evidence that it rocked that boat look to 1912, when TR came to the party convention with a commanding lead of primary delegates, yet the party snubbed him and went with Taft, the establishment guy from Ohio, who was willing to toe the corporate line (which is why TR challenged him).

Roosevelt had to go form his own party, which he did and which sent Taft down to third place and handed the WH to Woodrow Wilson with something like 42% of the vote. But 8 years later the Republicans won back the WH with what was then the biggest landslide ever, with their one-percent guy, and the rest is history.

So "Big Switch", no not a "switch". More like a mutual evolution. It took a generation to evolve, but it did.

What a coincidence. I already essplained this mythology in the intervening post, while you were writing this.
Happy reading.

Meanwhile let's pick some boners.

If you were proponent of slavery or slave owner, you could not join the party,

Link?

How many "slave owners" in fact were there outside what would become the Confederacy?

That means, all slaves in United States, some 4.5 million, at the brink of Civil war were owned by Democrats.

Nape, doesn't mean that at all. AGAIN, number one NOBDDY ANYWHERE has ever needed a political party to own a slave (most slaveowners had no party at all); number two the South was not a political monolith until AFTER the Civil War --- before it, it was split between Democrats, Whigs and a few other minor parties. You can't just pick up your chess pieces of 1875 and plunk them down in 1855. Linear time won't allow it. So even if you stipulate that in order to own a slave you have to sign up with a political party, it's a toss-up which one you end up with.

And number three as late as 1860 the Constitutional Union Party --- offshoot of the dying Whigs -- won three states in the POTUS election, two of which would soon secede, and their position was also decidedly pro-Union. The Democratic Party in the same election won Zero states (or electoral votes) in what would become the Confederacy. That is to say, the DP won exactly the same amount of Electoral College support as Lincoln did, and Lincoln's name wasn't even on the ballots there.

That's correct
All slaveholders were Democratics
Even in the south, no Republicans owned slaves

Probably true, since the Repulicans didn't organize, or even run a POTUS candidate, in the South until 1868. And that year's candidate, Grant, had been a slaveholder but was not in the South, so I'll give you that.

But as to the first part, nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnno. Nobody holding (or trading/selling) slaves ever needed a political party. And that (both) was going on for three hundred years before "Democratics" existed, or any other political party. Which in turn means that the overwheliming majority of slave owners/traders had no political party at all. Nor did they need one.

Again, wrong.

Grant did have one slave, that he inherited from his in laws, and free him years before the Civil War. At the time when he briefly owned the slave, he was... yes, a Democrat.

Nothing MORE unpatriotic than celebrating the treason of slaveholders.
