League Of The South To Celebrate Lincoln Assassination
[su_right_ad]FreakOutNation links to the story at RightWingWatch.
Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore has close personal and financial ties with Michael Peroutka, the neo-Confederate activist and theocrat who has helped develop the view, espoused by Moore in recent interviews and statements, that states must defy federal court rulings in favor of marriage equality since they are in violation of divine law.
Peroutka is a “true Confederate” activist and a former leader of the League of the South , although he quit the neo-Confederate group last year during his successful campaign to win a seat as a Republican on Anne Arundel County, Maryland, county council.
Warren Throckmorton notes, just today announced that on April 14 it will host a celebration of the anniversary of the “execution of the tyrant Abraham Lincoln.”

A modern day Civil War…?? It’s what the Tbaggers and the rest want, I wonder if they realize how bad it would end.??

” Those who cannot remember the past…”
So I’d say no.

I don’t know, they seem to be hell bent on unlosing the Civil War. The “States Right’s” claims are virtually identical (minus the slavery) but the belief their Christian faith is somehow a right to hate and discriminate others is like stepping back into 1860…kinda spooky.

I don’t think they have thought this through

February 12. Happy Birthday, Mr. Lincoln. Thank You for all you did for our nation.

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a
new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men
are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any
nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great
battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a
final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might
live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate — we can not consecrate — we can not hallow — this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will
little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what
they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the
unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It
is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us —
that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for
which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve
that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall
have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people,
for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
Abraham Lincoln
November 19, 1863

They celebrate the murder of one of Americas greatest Presidents that was shot by a thug as he sat unarmed in a theatre. Too bad they feel to recognize this pos killed President Lincoln after he led his military into the south to kick their asses.

And yet, the Tealibanists are always the first to argue that Lincoln was a Republican.
Man, they not only eat their own, they dig up their dead and gnaw the bones!

If I had a shit list for the sick and the stupid the League of the South would definitely be in the top ten.

Ironic isn’t it.
The Emancipation Proclamation was an executive order issued by Abraham Lincoln. This joker celebrates the murder of the author of the most significant executive order in the history of our republic.
Hopefully this story will provide some clarity into why I am suspicious of those who claim President Obama’s exeucutive orders are illegal.
Stuart Allen February 13th, 2015 at 8:39 am
According to the Teabillies, President Obama’as mere existence is illegal.

Moore’s Buddies in the KKK have already shown up to support him as he supports several other racist hate groups.

(still banging head on keyboard. Will comment soon.)

I see he is enjoying his right to assemble without consequence. Funny that he is using it to attack the nation that gives him those rights.
Also, anyone who celebrates the death of any person needs to be institutionalized.
William February 13th, 2015 at 9:11 am
Still bitter huh?
William February 13th, 2015 at 9:22 am

Granny: You got your speech for Mr. Drysdale?
Jethro: Yes, ma’am, one of the greatest speeches ever wrote.
“Four score and seven years ago, “our fathers brought forth to this continent a new nation “conceived in liberty and dedicated to the preposition ”
Granny: By dingies, that’s a dandy speech. I’m proud of you.
Jethro: I didn’t write it. That was written by Abraham Lincoln, the president that whupped the south.
Granny: The south was not whupped.
Jethro: Granny, general lee surrendered to general grant.
Granny: He did not.
General Lee figured that Grant was a blacksmith, and he handed him his sword so he could sharpen it, and don’t you ever forget it.
(Switch Granny to Teabagger and it still reads the same.)
