Maybe the hidden reason he wants to get rid of Thomas Jefferson is because he didn;t promote same sex marriage in the Declaration of Independence.
No one who was against the statues and other things confederate being removed, at least not enough against it to get out of bed, grab a gun and go down to protect the monuments.
Crying gets old.
Why doesn’t Buttigieg join the Taliban? He could simultaneously enjoy his butt-buddies while destroying history.
This is just the newest expansion of the blame presidents game. The Connecticut Democratic Party I believe already removed Jefferson’s and Jackson’s names from their annual dinner. He’s not a transformative politician, just a hack in a new suite.
By definition liberals have no foundational basis for determining “right” from “wrong”.
What a dumbf^^k!
OK, so he hates this country too. Another America-hating leftist who thinks he can do the job of president of the USA. Bet he apologized for being a White male.
The “right thing to do” is to DEPOPULATE Peter from the body politic. The republic’s first female president can wait for another day.
I demand Buttgood resign immediately as a disgrace to the office.
It’s the right thing to do.
Deface Jefferson’s name at your own political risk.
Let’s just erase everything in our past because it upsets some people. Pretty soon nothing will be named, we won’t have any history, and no one will understand why we do anything.
We will have the collective memories of a goldfish.
Jefferson's Antislavery Actions
“You know that nobody wishes more ardently to see an abolition not only of the trade but of the condition of slavery: and certainly nobody will be more willing to encounter every sacrifice for that object.” -Thomas Jefferson to Brissot de Warville, February 11, 1788
I know, let’s put it to a vote. Erase Jefferson or Obama.
Pete Buttigieg would have to stand on his husband’s shoulders to kiss Thomas Jefferson’s ass. Which, come to think of it, he would gladly do.
Buttigieg made the remarks when Hewitt asked him which form of Islamic extremism he thought posed the greatest overall threat.
“Do you find Iranians’ variant of Shia extremism to be more dangerous to the world than the Sunni variant that we see in the Taliban and perhaps in Hamas and some of the more radical elements of Wahhabism?” Hewitt asked.
“Well, you know, not unlike Christianity when it is motivating someone to do something extreme,” Buttigieg responded. “It can have a thousand different flavors
These people are evil and treasonous. And should be dealt with as such. They hate freedom and hate America.
If Jefferson and Jackson aren’t considered worthy enough to lend their names to the Democrats’ most important annual dinner because they owned slaves, the logical replacements for them would be the presidents who did the most to free the slaves — Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant, who did the most to fight and win the Civil War.
Although Lincoln and Grant were Republicans, an annual Democratic Lincoln-Grant Dinner would be still be appropriate, since it would honor the two presidents most responsible for creating the Democrats’ all-important Black vote, without which they could never win the presidency or most statewide elections.
A little pissant thinks he is even worthy to pronounce Jefferson’s name.
