I Dunno, Maybe That Emancipation Proclamation Thing Was Just a Fad

After Arkansas State Legislator Jon Hubbard oh so eloquently defended slavery, Benton County Republican Party Chairman Mike Sevak took a very controversial stand.

Sevak said he does not expect the group’s comments to hurt Republican chances in Arkansas this year. He did note his particular dislike of Mauch’s comments regarding Lincoln.

“Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation because he felt all people were created equally,” Sevak said. “I support the Emancipation Proclamation.”

And it took the Arkansas Republican Party only 144 years to support the Emancipation Proclamation.  That, my friends, is progress.

Thanks to Richard for the heads up.
