    And now a word from a Republican who wasn't a fascist.

    "All that serves labor serves the nation. All that harms labor is treason. If a man tells you he trusts America, yet fears labor, he is a fool. There is no America without labor, and to fleece the one is to rob the other."

    Abraham Lincoln

    There you have it, ladies and gentlemen. Abraham Lincoln would know modern-day Republicans for what they are: traitors against America.
