A lot of people who believe what Southerners did, that government had violated its contract with the governed, just elected Republicans to both houses of Congress.

Thats Pure-D Bullshit. Right from the can.

How many neo-rebs voted Republican in New Hampshire, or Minnisota, or North Carolina for that matter?

Of course Dixie did us proud in the Louisiana runoff didn't she?

We certainly came close. If you take out New Orleans Parish we would have won the state. But New Orleans Parish's population is majority black and they vote 95% Democrat for any Democrat under any circumstances even if his name is Hitler. It's the same thing that happened there in '96 - Republicans in the rest of the state voted Jenkins, but New Orleans Parish's one sided voting (not to mention vote fraud) made up for the Landrieu deficit.

And for the record, Landrieu's support was NOT a confederate friendly crowd. I drove over there for a weekend to campaign for Terrell. The Landrieu campaign "volunteers" that were opposite of us consisted of two groups.

The first were NAACP activists being paid $20 an hour to wave Landrieu signs on street corners - they want to ban all things confederate.

The second group consisted of college aged womens studies major lesbo vegan goth types from northeastern universities that the Dems bussed down south for Landrieu. Every last one of them thought they were on another freedom ride to save the south from "evil confederate republicans."

In short, I suggest you get your facts straight before bashing Dixie for the left wing politics of yankeeland and their race hustlers. You might do yourself good to look at Bill Clinton's election numbers as well. He may have come from a southern state, but yankeeland elected him unanimously. Twice. And they did so both times in opposition to the majority in the old CSA states.

No it's not. There are hundreds of monuments all over the South that use those exact words.

"How many neo-rebs voted Republican in New Hampshire, or Minnisota, or North Carolina for that matter?"

I don't know and you don't either. What IS a neo-reb? Is it anything like a yankee redneck?

"Of course Dixie did us proud in the Louisiana runoff didn't she?"

What an ignorant statement. You indicate by that nonsense that we are some sort of "group" that you are loathe to recognize and loathe to appreciate because we didn't vote the way you wanted us to. What a pantload! ROTFLMAO!
