It is the uniqueness of our southern cultural identity and the strong sense of independence, rooted firmly in the Constitution, that we want to preserve. We do not want our traditions and our way of life bastardized by liberals and the courseness which earmarks their idea of what America ought to be. We wish to maintain our distinct individuality and it is our right to do so. No one is required to live here, just like nobody is required to take part in this thread. If you can't respect our views that's fine, but showing up just to disrupt is about as welcome as a pile of dog sh*t on the floor at a dinner party.

"the uniqueness of our southern cultural identity" Most eloquently stated; as only a native son of the South could.
Thank you sir.

"I do not conceive we can exist long as a nation, without having lodged somewhere a power which will pervade the whole Union in as energetic a manner, as the authority of the different state governments extends over the several states. To be fearful of vesting Congress, constituted as that body is, with ample authorities for national purposes, appears to me to be the very climax of popular absurdity and madness."
