Why is the South such an embarrassment?

[bripat9643]

they must submit to the rule of the country where they're born, or be killed.

Or be Killed? They chose to fight a war for independence and lost. That is not a philosophy.

Nope. Lincoln imposed the war on them. They didn't choose it, numskull.

Ha! They chose to become traitors to the nation and the entire South suffered the consequences of their actions.

The Constitution defines treason, and secession doesn't meet the definition. In fact, Lincoln's invasion of Virginia meets the definition of slavery to the letter.

Do these people like being poor?

Is the GOP in love with poverty?

To the GOP is the ideal American fat, dumb, and poor?

As a transplanted North Carolinian, fuck you and the fart that blew you in

because they are a bunch of underpaid working class that constantly vote against the good of the country as a whole and a strong economy is created by well paid working ppl, so, they are voting against whats best for themselves AND the country. Ignorance lives elsewhere as well. I think maybe look in your own back yard.
