“Mayor Pete Buttigieg was on the Hugh Hewitt Show this week and
Hugh hit him with one question that the entire field will be answering sooner
or later. Democrats have been renaming their annual Jefferson-Jackson dinners
all over the country because Jefferson was a slave owner. Is Mayor Pete onboard
with these changes? Oh, you bet he is,
buddy. (Free Beacon)
“Pete Buttigieg, who is running in a
crowded Democratic field for president, said on Friday he believes renaming
events and things named after President Thomas Jefferson is the 'right thing to
do.'
“The South Bend mayor appeared on
The Hugh Hewitt Show, where he was asked to weigh in on the name of the annual
Indiana Democratic dinner, which was formerly named after party founders and
former presidents Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson. Indiana Democrats
changed the name of the annual dinner in 2016…
“’Yeah,
we’re doing that in Indiana. I think it’s the right thing to do,’ Buttigieg
said. ‘Over time, you develop and evolve on the things you choose to honor …
Jefferson is more problematic. There’s a lot of course to admire in his
thinking and his philosophy, but then again if you plunge into his writings,
especially the notes on the state of Virginia, you know that he knew slavery was
wrong.’”
Thomas Jefferson is
considered the father of the Democratic Party. Today’s Democrats, acting like
the unrestrained rebellious teenagers they are, want to throw out the Old Man,
in the case of Jefferson because he owned slaves. Our modern Democrats want to unname
everything Jefferson.
Why do they not take the
idea to its logical end – Unname everything now called Washington, Jefferson
and Jackson? Require all Americans who hold one of those last names to rename
themselves and their progeny. Shoot, find out the names of every slave owner
and eliminate those last names from buildings and monuments, and make further
use of those names illegal. It's the (Democratic) logical thing to do.
