Your citations of Mulally's comments remind me of some pompous old Southern Aristocrat nut case going on about infant baptism, predestination, being a direct descendent of King Charles I and Charlemagne, the specialness and superiority of Southern culture and the absolute necessity of the "peculiar institution" due to the uniquely unique historical, political, and social development of the South, all being pre-ordained by God Himself as evidenced by the unique Southern climate and virtuous temperment of the noble descendents of Cavaliers who He determined would settle the South.

Or, as characterized in the article:

"The impression given by Mulally's statements is one of preaching some kind of quasi-religious and/or ideological crusade into which he incorporates diffuse hatred of the industrialized world, particularly America, and wants to humiliate and punish America for what are interpreted as its sins."

A comparison with Lunatic Southern Demagoguery waxing ecstatic about the virtues of slavery and regaling the evils of wage labor begs to be made.

Cavaliers--

------------------

Jesus Christ you have a way with words. I searched my mind for days trying to find a word to express a thought, and yu finally came up with it here. That's what the Southern cause and the army was. It was cavaliers who looked none too closely at what they were defending.
