That was their plan not the repubs. This is a major delusion of the so called 3%ers. The South chose a warmonger for President explicitly because he would start the war. They wanted war and they got it.

Really now?

How come the South smashed the blacks back into serfdom over the next 80 years then?

Slavery might have been beaten back, but the power of evil merely regenerated. Reconstruction was an absolute failure.

You can invade Iraq and kill the dictator, but if you then elect an evil tyrant like Obama as a replacement, nothing will really change.

Willful denial… for to face the truth is to be forced to examine with a critical eye all that one has believed, while accepting that one has played and been played for a fool. Acceptance of one’s foolishness is only palatable for those who place truth above ego and above wishful thinking.

“Pike Bishop: A hell of a lot of people, Dutch, just can’t stand to be wrong.
Dutch Engstrom: Pride.
Pike Bishop: And they can’t forget it… that pride… being wrong. Or learn by it”

It’s as if they seem to believe that if the Stated Goal of something is sufficiently noble and pure, the process will just magically work itself. Amongst the sheep, there’s not even necessarily a “means justifying the ends” mentality because it doesn’t seem to occur to them that the process might go wrong when the Stated Goal is so noble and wonderful. I have enough lefty friends to have observed this in action in recent years.

That said, anyone who speaks out against the process is immediately labeled as being against the Stated Goal, as in, everyone who voiced concerns about Obamacare looming as an implementation disaster were meanies who were against poor people and children getting medical treatment. And when the process breaks down, as badly designed processes inevitably do, it’s not because it was badly planned or simply an impractical idea, it was because it was too little/too late, or actively sabotaged/hampered by the meanies.

“The Rs did have no plan against slavery.”

The end justifies the means.

I got sidetracked and failed to click on her link but had independently seen the article earlier and ‘duh’ thought it relevant to her post’s theme. Only after I’d submitted my comment did I discover that I’d posted from the article she’d already linked to…
Clearly, great minds think alike 😉

The Brits could implement it in ’48 due to low expectations. Americans in 2013 have high expectations for healthcare service. Obamacare, medicare, medicaid, doesn’t matter, it ain’t gonna work out. It is one thing for a doc to see a medicare patient and “balance his books” by seeing some private insurance patients. It is another thing to expect him to provide low payment care all around.

The Rs did have no plan against slavery.
