    David Corn Retweeted Charlie Sykes

    Love ya, Charlie. But that's not accurate. Cons embraced Palin, who claimed Obama was "palling" around with terrorists. They also embraced the Tea Party whose rallies included racist messages. There are other examples going back years. Ask @MaxBoot about this. #WithAllDueRespecthttps://twitter.com/SykesCharlie/status/1054427272025948161 …

    Until the last election conservatives had the good taste, sound judgement and the wisdom to reject and even marginalize those uglier voices on the right.

        Don't deny that. But I also think it worth noting that there was/is another non-crazy conservative tradition... Here's the whole piece:https://www.weeklystandard.com/charles-j-sykes/debating-the-once-and-future-conservatism …

        But this is not what you said, Charlie Sykes. You said the ugly started with T. I say the ugly started with Newt and has been upheld by Mitch thwarting SCOTUS norms, and your friend Paul trying to squeeze pennies out of grannies is pretty ugly to me.

        I’m old enough to remember the old lady in MN who said, at the McCain rally, that Obama “is an Arab”. At that same rally, where Palin worked the crowd, attendees yelled “kill him”when she trashed Obama. Let’s not get all gauzy in our recollection of how this stuff started.

        He is revising history. The Southern Strategy has been around since Nixon. It’s always been about dividing with racism, sexism and xenophobia.

        It is called the Southern Strategy, which goes all the way back to the Nixon campaign in 1968. So we are going on 50 years of this crap.

        I've seen much worse, advocating and glorifying violence against members of congress. Think about recent events. Remember Palin's cross-hair advertisements? Gabby Giffords was on that map."Don't retreat, instead- RELOAD!" was how Palin introduced the map to her Twitter followerspic.twitter.com/bzNb9jl1Q5

        Amazing that conservatives such as @SykesCharlie are clutching their pearls now that the monster they helped create has broken out of the lab and is spreading mayhem across the countryside. They were in the lab. They were assistants. This is their monster. #maryshelley

        I left the GOP in 1982 for exactly the opposite of what you said, @SykesCharlie . They lied, supported racism and every time they were in control spent more of our tax dollars while espousing tax cuts. So @DavidCornDC is right #WithAllDueRespect !

        Charlie Sykes was blind. Amnesia works for memories too painful to admit. It also is a catalyst for revisionist historians to repeat those same damn mistakes. That time of Charlie's "civil" conservatism👇Maybe he means WHITE CONSERVATIVES being civil-- to each other?pic.twitter.com/zpxnFBWMti

        Lol. Conservatives never rejected or marginalized all the racist, conspiracy lunatics. They didn’t mind all that stuff brewing just below the surface. Trump let it all blow out like a geyser because he knows how to manipulate people.

        How about 'King' Reagan's conscious *choice* to OPEN his campaign at Philadelphia, MS? The Dog-Whistle that launched it all. 40 YEARS of nurturing, promoting, and suckling on racism. And STILL we have to listen this crap about how Trump is an 'aberration.' It's *sickening.*
