Sweet child in time/You'll see the light/Lines drawn between/Good and bad
The Spanish Civil War was a battle between two evil ideologies--Soviet Communism as represented by the Republicans, and Fascism, as represented by the Nationalists under Franco. The Republicans were nun-raping, priest-murdering savages. The Nationalists were Jew-murdering thugs. Neither side were worth a damn, and if Estase had been alive, he would have hoped each side would kill off the other. It reminds me of what Reagan said of the Iran-Iraq war: "It's a real shame both sides can't lose this war."
Fast forward to 2012. Real conservatives Bill Brady and Kurt Dillard are trounched by upstart Rahm Emmanuel confidant and Disturbin' Dick Durbin supporter Bruce Rauner. (See my previous post, "Sci-Fi Bruce Rauner.") Not only is Rauner pro-abortion, he promises to remake the Illinois GOP in his own image. The Illinois GOP was always heavy in Primrose Leaguers, but Rauner intends to make values voters unwelcome in Illinois Republican politics. So, while voting for Pat Quinn means voting for more financial ruin for the state, voting for Bruce Rauner means pro-lifers will have no place in state GOP politics. So, in other words, it is the Spanish Civil War all over again. It is one set of evil men against another set of evil men. Enjoy, Illinoisans.
