Republicans won’t be satisfied until they’ve killed every ounce of joy and fun in every corner of America.
What a miserable political party that is.
@HamonWry makes their nickname "Grand Old Party" such a misnomer.
@HamonWry @sheiladebonis Republicans used to be the good guys until Democrat LBJ passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and caused Dixiecrat White Flight to the GOP. That bastard lot shouldn't have anywhere to run or hide. NeoConfederates are gonna Confederate where ever they run to.

@claralistensprechen3rd @HamonWry @sheiladebonis Exactly. And this reversal is very confusing for younger folks.
GOP was the party of Lincoln. It was Republicans who established the first National Parks and the Park Service.
In the 1920s, the Ku Klux Klan had over 20 million members and every one of them was a Democrat.
Wait. What???
Facts like these make no sense today unless you know the intervening history. MLK and LBJ. Then Nixon and the Southern Strategy. Etc., etc.
