LOL!!!!!


This thread's a hoot. I can NOT believe people are still defending the North/South.....

(not that my little goading had ANYTHING to do with it...nuh uh. I'm innocent.) :)

Okay Dev, I just have to say it..

You have a great gift of exaggeration.*

That's the second time you've used the word Nazi as well. The only folks I know that use it that much are Democrats.. you aren't one of those, are you? If not, please refrain from using it again.

I'm not offended, but all my life the single most tiring and somewhat depressing aspect of some Americans--all of them southerners, for obvious reasons--is the insistence on carrying on this foolish "southerners vs. northerners" crap. We go on and on about how we want to repsect the rights of the individual, liberty from government, and all these other individual-centered ideas, and yet once a southerner learns that someone is from the north, BLAMO!

Republicans, including southern republicans, are forever talking against reparations, and when slavery is brought up we mention how there are no American slaves, and no one alive in America has held those slaves; we also talk about how the Native Americans should get over it. And these same people are fighting a war they never participated in, against people who never participated in it, in the ultimate armchair general pose.

We're all Americans. Period. Some people say that and add "But..." to it. Not me.

I'm a conservative living in Boston, and I am always amazed at the lack of respect some people have for the police up here. But that's merely a healthy skepticism compared to the attitude some of our southern neighbors have. Up here our attitude is "The police work for US."

Hey, Nazi Germany is one of only a few other places where police checkpoints were set up to see if "you had your correct papers on you"....(just as we have to now in the South...at least in North and South Carolina). (and of course both were done in the name of "safety".)

It's spelled "grammar", not "grammer".

"Do you herd sheep?" my grandma asked,
My grandpa leaped in fright,
"That grammer's wrong!" to me he cried,
"Have you heard sheep is right!"

"The South shall rise again" ... I must have heard that phrase a million times in my life (showing my gift for exaggeration here as well I guess).. and I've never literally 'heard' it used in a threatening or serious manner. I've always looked at it like 'the rebel yell' ... just a little fun thing to say or yell out, exclusive to our area of the country, expressing a bit of Southern Pride.

You see, at times we get a bit cranky down here, when folks keep telling us we should be ashamed of our states' histories, of which side of the Mason-Dixon our families' soldiers came from during that war.

We also get tired of all the redneck jokes, of the marrying your cousin remarks, of being accused of being the national center for bigotry.. just because we are Southerners.

So.. it's a rallying of sorts at times i think.. a reminder to each other it doesn't really matter what we hear every time when turn on a television, watch a movie, or read editorials and commentaries that touch on us.

I know I'm proud of my great-great grandfather who was a surgeon for the Confederate Army.. just as much as the one a few generations before who was a General under Washington.. my uncles in World War II, my big brother in the Vietnam War.. and my young man in Iraq as we speak.

And I'm not a redneck, never dated a relative in my life, and am surely no racist...

So we slap each other on the back, have our lil symbols of Southern Pride, and in essence gently reassure each other 'it doesn't matter what they think.. we know who and what we are, and we're damned proud of it'.

I hope you got the stuff on Cushing?, amazing stuff. Yep. I think those ironclads look a lot like the stealth ship the Navy was testing a few years ago.

[rdl6989]

ROTFLMAO!!!

[Allosaurs_r_us]

Let's just say that Googling "gay cowboys" is a very very very very very very very very very baaaaaad idea...

 

Dude, I can't believe you did that! LOL

 

Bet that was a rude awakening! I don't even want to know what you found.

"We also get tired of all the redneck jokes, of the marrying your cousin remarks, of being accused of being the national center for bigotry.. just because we are Southerners."

True, but it'[s not as if southerners aren't constantly making Yankee jokes, either. Witness some of the remarks on this thread about how all Yankees who move south are gays and such. I mean, let's be real--when Yankees aren't around, southerners are saying "Those Yankees are just wonderful folks, I wonder why they don't like us?"

I'm not denying your above comments; I'm just saying, it's not a victim-attacker situation. It goes both ways. (So to speak.;)

[Darksheare]

LOL!!

[Vision]

Cushing was an amazing man. The part I liked was how the "NY newspapers" printed the story of him going down to blow up the Albamarle including how and when he was going to do it. hehehe...NY newspapers have always been traitorous. I also liked how the Albamarle got out of trouble in a battle using bacon. I work in Annapolis and think I'm gonna go check out Cushing's grave

[stand watie]

i'd be glad to check him out, except that he's G-O-N-E!
