I really like Sullivan and consider his homosexuality irrelevant. HOWEVER I absolutely agree with you that he is anti-Southern and has, at best, some five decade old text book understanding of the South. Actually, I think his grasp of American culture is really twisted around the small slice of his life here as an "intellectual" living among his own. (And by that I mean sheltered elitists.)
I am not from the South, nor was I sad to see Trent Lott go, but Sullivan's take was so embarrassingly shallow and stereotypical that I didn't make a planned donation to his site.

Sullivan is alright some of the time, but Mark Steyn has a much better grasp of America.
