I'm from the south.

128. I'm not sputtering. I don't hate the south. I don't bash the south

in fact, I've had some pleasant times south of the Mason Dixon. I've posted here in defense of the South and against the kind of regional bashing that appears. Thanks for throwing all "northerners" in one group. I manage not to do that with those from the South. You don't manage it when it comes to those of us from the north. And no one in this thread has cogently responded to my post, which was the first in the thread.

I'm sorry, this just doesn't make much sense to me

you're claiming that you see the same bigotry from liberal who grew up in a liberal environment as the kind you witnessed growing up in a fundy red environment, but you don't effectively make the case for your claim. And how the hell do you discern if someone is just a liberal poseur or believes what they say and how they vote? You keep referencing the behavior of these people as making it impossible to build a working coalition, but you don't go into what that behavior entails.

And what percent of liberals would you say fit into the category you're so irate about?

At least they don't vote for the crazy teathuglican fundies.
