and one more thing: 6. get out of our lives & leave us, our churches,our schools, etc. ALONE! (southerners don't care what you do up there, but we don't want to HAVE to participate in it OR pay for it!)

You're rambling. We live in a country where people are free to move wherever they want. Furthermore, every citizen is obligated to pay his share of taxes.

In any event, the Red states are the ones who get more money from the feds than they pay in. It's the Blue states that pay more than they get back, so your complaint about having to pay for what goes on in other parts of the country is not based in reality.

Whatever. Every generation, less people care. Does anyone in this country harbor ill will towards the British for whatever atrocities were comitted during the Revolutionary War? Of course not.

Eventually, even your descendents won't give a rat's ass about some atrocities committed centuries ago. If they do, they're no better than Muslims pining away for Al-Andalus.

NOPE. NOT rambling.

at every meeting of CSA desendents i attend, the MAIN topics are:

support for prayer in schools

support for religious expression on public property

public financing for "abortion on demand"

"social experiments", dreamed up by northeastern liberals

HIGH taxes

nosey,intrusive federal bureaucrats

etc,etc,etc.

we just want to be LEFT ALONE!

Nonsense. The South is represented in Congress, just like any other part of the country. Whatever is "wrong" with this country, people in the South are just as responsible for. After all, the GOP holds Congress and the White House and Southerners dominate the GOP. So, if you have a complaint with where the country is going, blame Southern politicians.

After all, Bill Clinton is from the South, as is John Edwards, Robert Byrd, Jimmy Carter etc.

Man, I feel sorry for you. You're devoting your life to a pointless cause. But, whatever. I guess crackpots can do whatever they want, so long as they don't hurt anyone else.

So go ahead, keeping calling yourself a Southron (rhymes with "moron") and keep dreaming of a day when "Dixie" will be free again. Whatever.

So, when is "Dixie" going to be free again? How do you folks intend to go about splitting off from the country?

I could use a good laugh.

the BIGGEST problems are lifetime appointments of federal judges & damnyankee HATERS!

all judges should be ELECTED to represent the state they sit in.

you want a GUESS?

i'd guess 15-20 years, UNLESS Los Estados Unidos de Azatlan leaves the USA first, then all bets are off.

the establishment of Azatlan MAY be in 10 or LESS years.

1 million? 10 million? EVERYBODY in the 3 states/west of the Mississippi River?

imVho, the lincoln thugs would have KILLED EVERYBODY in the CSA/USA to keep the southland under the damnyankee elitists boot & SUBSERVIANT, permanently.

You're exactly right. I think I might spend the rest of my life whining about what the Vikings did to my English ancestors. Eric the Red was a Tyrant!!!!! LOL

he may be located in VA, but i'd bet he doesn't count himself as a southerner & VERY likely was neither born nor raised anywhere in the southland.

there's just too much lib/yankee/SA in his postings.(we raise our kids better than that.)

provided that Azatlan is established in some proper way that indicates that the MAJORITY of the voters of those states approve,not even one berkley-educated liberal.(well, maybe, on second thought, i'd sacrifice all the berkleyites! lol.)

whatever else you may say CORRECTLY about wee willie klintoon:

that he is a dopefiend (with a nose like a vacuum cleaner),

that he is a serial adulterer,

that he has always taken bribes.

that he is a CROOK of the first rank,

that he likes LITTLE boys/girls,

that he's a hypocrite,

that he is a LIB &

married to "the blonde witch project",etc,etc,etc,

NOBODY ever accused him of being STUPID and/or NOT being a southerner (NOT even me and i've known him since college days in the summer of '66. he is NOT a friend of mine!), with a certain amount of "trailer trash charm".

if i HAD to make a choice between the two camps (and there were NO OTHER CHOICES), i'd take wee willie/jimmy carter/lbj over dukakis,mondale,albore,schumer,frank,ANY of the kennedys,etc. & PARTICULIARLY,the TRAITOR HANOI-John.

My family's from Florida. Unlike you and other people who live in this country, I count myself as an American first.
