I am trying to create a very generic generics repository for my Entity Framework repository that has the basic CRUD statements and uses an Interface. I have hit a brick wall head first and been knocked over. Here is my code, written in a console application, using a Entity Framework Model, with a table named Hurl. Simply trying to pull back the object by its ID. Here is the full application code.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Data.Objects;
using System.Linq.Expressions;
using System.Reflection;
using System.Data.Objects.DataClasses;

namespace GenericsPlay
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            var hs = new HurlRepository(new hurladminEntity());
            var hurl = hs.Load<Hurl>(h => h.Id == 1);
            Console.Write(hurl.ShortUrl);
            Console.ReadLine();

        }
    }

    public interface IHurlRepository
    {
        T Load<T>(Expression<Func<T, bool>> expression);
    }

    public class HurlRepository : IHurlRepository, IDisposable 
    {

        private ObjectContext _objectContext;

        public HurlRepository(ObjectContext objectContext)
        {
            _objectContext = objectContext;
        }

        public ObjectContext ObjectContext
        {
            get
            {
                return _objectContext;
            }
        }

        private Type GetBaseType(Type type)
        {
            Type baseType = type.BaseType;
            if (baseType != null && baseType != typeof(EntityObject))
            {
                return GetBaseType(type.BaseType);
            }
            return type;
        }

        private bool HasBaseType(Type type, out Type baseType)
        {
            Type originalType = type.GetType();
            baseType = GetBaseType(type);
            return baseType != originalType;
        }

        public IQueryable<T> GetQuery<T>()
        {
            Type baseType;
            if (HasBaseType(typeof(T), out baseType))
            {
                return this.ObjectContext.CreateQuery<T>("[" + baseType.Name.ToString() + "]").OfType<T>();
            }
            else
            {
                return this.ObjectContext.CreateQuery<T>("[" + typeof(T).Name.ToString() + "]");
            }
        }

        public T Load<T>(Expression<Func<T, bool>> whereCondition)
        {
            return this.GetQuery<T>().Where(whereCondition).First(); 
        }

        public void Dispose()
        {
            if (_objectContext != null)
            {
                _objectContext.Dispose();
            }
        }
    }

}

Here is the error that I am getting:

    System.Data.EntitySqlException was unhandled
  Message="'Hurl' could not be resolved in the current scope or context. Make sure that all referenced variables are in scope, that required schemas are loaded, and that namespaces are referenced correctly., near escaped identifier, line 3, column 1."
  Source="System.Data.Entity"
  Column=1
  ErrorContext="escaped identifier"
  ErrorDescription="'Hurl' could not be resolved in the current scope or context. Make sure that all referenced variables are in scope, that required schemas are loaded, and that namespaces are referenced correctly."

This is where I am attempting to extract this information from.
