Yo, Douchenozzle... The Republican party wasn't even formed until 1854. Tell your aunties you need new reference books.
"Arguing with liberals is like playing chess with a pigeon; no matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock out the pieces, crap on the board, and strut around like it is victorious." - Author Unknown
other suckable things remaining unspoken seem to get this poor guy upset
"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."
Today in History: May 18 1652 A law is passed in Rhode Island banning slavery in the colonies but it causes little stir and seems unlikely to be enforced. Nayboobs donned their white gowns and pointy hats to protest. 1860 Abraham Lincoln is nominated for president. One of the few decent Republican presidents. 1864 The fighting at Spotsylvania in Virginia, reaches its peak at the Bloody Angle. 1896 The Supreme Court's decision on Plessy v. Ferguson upholds the "separate but equal" policy in the United States. 1917 The U.S. Congress passes the Selective Service act, calling up soldiers to fight World War I. 1933 President Franklin Roosevelt signs the Tennessee Valley Authority Act. One of the truly great examples of rational, reasonable, progressive government in action. The TVA powers millions of homes and businesses to this day. 1942 New York ends night baseball games for the rest of World War II. 1944 The Allies finally capture Monte Cassino in Italy. 1951 The United Nations moves its headquarters to New York city. 1980 After rumbling for two months, Mount Saint Helens, in Washington, erupts 3 times in 24 hours. As terrible as the disaster was, it pales in comparison to the damage done each day by the environmental policies of greedy Republicans.

1536 Anne Boleyn is beheaded on Tower Green. 1568 Defeated by the Protestants, Mary, Queen of Scots, flees to England where Queen Elizabeth imprisons her. 1588 The Spanish Armada sets sail from Lisbon, Spain. 1780 Near total darkness descends on New England at noon. [The likely cause of the Dark Day was smoke from massive forest fires. When a fire does not kill a tree and the tree later grows, scar marks are left in the growth rings.[12] This makes it possible to approximate the date of a past fire. Researchers examining the scar damage in Ontario, Canada, attribute the Dark Day to a large fire in the area that is today occupied by Algonquin Provincial Park] 1856 Senator Charles Sumner speaks out against slavery. 1858 A pro-slavery band led by Charles Hameton executes unarmed Free State men near Marais des Cygnes on the Kansas-Missouri border. 1863 Union General Ulysses S.
