They like to claim that they are still the party of Lincoln, but some high-profile Wisconsin Republicans are light years away from any meaningful connection to the President who saved the Republic and was assassinated for his hard-won achievement by a Confederate sympathizer.
As I wrote last month of these cartoonish, nauseatingly non-Lincolnesque nobodies:
* Ron Johnson - Wisconsin's worst US Senator since Joe McCarthy - is blocking with a malevolent misuse of Senatorial power a proposed Federal holiday on Juneteenth designed to offer a long-overdue public measure of correction and respect for African-Americans in America, and in Wisconsin whom Johnson obviously does not consider constituents worthy of his time and attention.
* And will Wisconsin veterans' organization or any relatives of the the state's Civil War casualties explain to the unspeakable ignoramuses otherwise known as Congressmen Tiffany and Grothman their indecent public embrace of treasonous Confederate generals or their supporters dishonors the sacrifice made for the nation's unity and in the fight to abolish slavery by more than 12,000 Badger State Civil War soldiers whose deaths the Confederacy and its troops had caused, records show?
