As to that detestable ignoramus Harold Meyerson, the man is a partisan jackass plain and simple. No different than a lot of elitist pseudo intellects. He doesn’t know jack about history John, but he’s annoying because he thinks he does and his elitist views are influential. Meyerson and his ilk prey on the smug ignorance and casual bigotry of their Birkenstock wearing, latte’ sipping, organic free-range audience. Believe me, I know these people like the back of my hand. They cling to their childish partisan narrative like it was some sort of security blanket. They’re a bunch of intellectual thumb suckers.

It’s irritating as hell but what can you do? We live in a republic of fools where nothing can get you in trouble faster than telling the truth and deception is the surest way to political success. That’s what Meyerson is doing, telling people the lies they want to hear. It’s what the nattering neoconservative nabobs on the radio do. It’s what the politicians do. They do it because it works. It works because most people are idiots when it comes to politics.

First of all, there was nothing wrong with the statement about “Southernized” GOP party since “Days of Jefferson Davis”. If they made a mistake, it was not about Davis, it was about Ryan and Romney, they are both from the NORTH.

You missed that one. But then you took issue with DAVIS. Davis was from the South. And she didnt say WHICH Days of Davis. You might be surprised to learn Davis spent a little time in the SOuth before he resigned from the Senate. So “Days of Davis” does not mean “only those days while Davis was still in the US Senate”. He was a major player in the US before he ran away in his dress. (and yes, he ran away in a dress)

So do yourself a favor. find battles worth fighting, rather than try to show off nit picking some trivial issue. Surely there are real things you can write about, to show how smart you are?
