Re: Assholes like Jimmymc25 topple Confederate monument

Sorry Spider, not so. When it was founded in Jackson, Michigan and also in Ripon, Wisconsin, the founders were of a mind that their new anti-slavery party was keeping with the finest aspects of conservatism until later on when the term came to mean something entirely different. The fact is you CAN be a conservative and still be solidly behind civil rights, support for a woman's right to choose, to support the aspiration of downtrodden people and to live up to the highest ideals of Abraham Lincoln, Charles Sumner, Thaddeus Stevens, Ben Wade, Zach Chandler and up and through Teddy Roosevelt and Dwight Eisenhower.
