“Have you asked yourself why is Hollywood so gaga over Lincoln, the movie? Why is Bill Clinton all of a sudden out there at the Golden Globes last night being brought on stage to thunderous standing ovation to talk about Lincoln and what he did during the Civil War? What did Lincoln do, as far as these people are concerned? He wiped out the South. But he didn’t finish,” the conservative commentator said on his radio program...

...“So what the left is admitting that they are doing today is, once again, trying just finish it off. Lincoln did not fully finish. The South is trying to go back to the old America which don’t exist anymore,” Limbaugh said, according to the transcript. 

He added: “They’re turning back the clock on women. They’re turning back the clock on gays and gay marriage. They’re all focused on God and guns in the South. They love both of them! So the South has to be wiped out again.”
