Hi koan; Okay for the purpose of discussing the Lovecraft quote on the Republicans, I'll stipulate that the liberal Republican party ended in 1900. And that the Democrats then became the liberal party (even with all their Klu Klux Klan members, etc.) So do you still support Lovecraft as a great example of a Democrat? Despite his vehement racism? -- Carl

Lovecraft is koan's beloved racist grandpa: On the Creation of Niggers (1912) by H. P. Lovecraft When, long ago, the gods created Earth In Jove’s fair image Man was shaped at birth. The beasts for lesser parts were next designed; Yet were they too remote from humankind. To fill the gap, and join the rest to Man, Th’Olympian host conceiv’d a clever plan. A beast they wrought, in semi-human figure, Filled it with vice, and called the thing a Nigger. The key to his writing career: “Start with a regular ghost story or some such. Liberally add the words 'chthonic' and 'eldritch'. When in need to choose between a number of synonyms, always pick out the most obscure and archaic one and add another adjective in front off it just for good measure. Then make up a bunch of words and phrases with clusters of vowels or consonants, and add those. Voila!” ~ H.P. Lovecraft on How to write a supernatural horror story
