I'm guessing that this would be a non-issue for you if the South still voted strongly Democrat as they historically have. As Bob Dole, and several other southern politicians like to state, the South didn't change - they didn't leave the Democrat party. The Democratic party left them. What do you expect when 80% of the population regularly attends religious services? Strong support for gay marriage? Strong support for removing the 10 Commandments from public buildings?


Heh, when the south voted democrat, democrats were reactionist while the republicans were progressive. During the time of your civil war, it was the republicans who wanted to abolish slavery, while the democrats wanted to keep the status quo.

Kind of like Massholes who religiously vote for the Kennedies, regardless of the fact that it's one of the most politically corrupt families headed up by a drunken, rapist buffoon? Nah, I don't think it could be quite that bad.

The only thing they do is tip the support in favor of the religious/conservative/reactionist candidates while they don't do anything in terms of production or research. You should had let them have their own little country, and everybody would be happier now.


Without the Southern states, You wouldn't have an America.

As I so often like to highlight I originally was willing to give Bush a chance and supported him, however as time has progressed the man has demonstrated that he has one agenda for this nation and he and his fellow conservative buddies in the Cabinet will fulfill them at any cost. This is what turned me off, his disrespectul, condascending and bullish mindset that seems to be only swayed by the neo-cons surrounding him on a daily basis, including the cirlcle of RASPUTINS such as Rove, Wolfowitz, Chaney, Rumsfeld and of course Halliburton.


Hmm,So I can generalize and say that all northerners are complete idiotic liberals? If you can say insulting things about the Southerns, I can equally say such nasty things about the Northerners. But, I'm not mean like that.

Everyone has a right to vote for whom they please. That's the beauty of this counrty. I won't deny you of your freedom of speech, But with that freedom is responsibility, the first amendment does not support lude,rude,and insulting comments.

So,really if you have beef with our rights, I wouldn't be complaining about it here, I'd be complaining elsewhere.

hmm...give me some more information as to where free speech is protected, but not certain *types* of free speech?

we may be in some form loudmouthed, liberal, Northerners - but i dont think that should limit our free speech|

Actually free speech is limited to the point where your freedom of speech does not infringe upon another person's rights. For example, slander, whilst being speech, is typically illegal. Or another example, a doctor releasing your medical records to the public or telling his friends about your condition, is not protected as "free" speech.
