About time someone wrote a eulogy for the GOP, although, let’s face it, they were the spawn of an unholy marriage between the Whigs & the abolitionists, died in childbirth, and no one buried the corpse. It was Lincoln and downhill from there, aside from a few brief moments when good men like William Borah, Ron Paul, Pat Buchanan, and, okay, Donald Trump donned their livery in pursuit of elective office.

As he joined in on the bashing of Dixie, the nauseating GOP House leader, Kevin McCarthy (about the only sort of Republican who can get elected in California), made a snarky remark to the effect that all of the figures being taken down were Democrats. This statement is a corollary to Con-Inc’s ever-so-successful DR3 meme. In effect, McCarthy is saying that John Calhoun and Jefferson Davis were inferior to Bush and Cheney. And from watching modern Southern Republicans like Mitch McConnell and David Perdue, I’d say the whole party believes that, so the hell with them.
