"THE SOUTH" Has Killed The Republican Party! GOP Won't Recover In Our Lifetimes!
Birther-Stopper
Republican mantra.
You see, the former Confederate states still writhe under a collective
INFERIORITY COMPLEX.
But benighted Southerners should try to ACCEPT -- the war was lost,
the slaves were lost, prestige was lost, self-esteem was lost.
But after 144 years, what's so hard about overcoming all that?
But, hey, let's give credit where credit's due; Southerners have the
nation's highest OBESITY rate.
So you see -- the South CAN be first -- in some areas!
Republicans take heart -- or gas!
Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

"A Tip for The GOP: Look Away"
By Kathleen Parker
Wednesday, August 5, 2009
SOUTHERN WRITER WALKER PERCY liked to poke fun at Ohioans in his
novels, just to even things out a bit.
"Usually Mississippians and Georgians are getting it from everybody,
and Alabamians," he once explained to an interviewer. "So, what's
wrong with making smart-aleck remarks about Ohio? Nobody puts Ohio
down. Why shouldn't I put Ohio down?"
Percy, the genial genius, laughed at his own remark.
Now, apparently, it's the Buckeye State's turn to poke back. In a
fusillade of pique, Ohio Sen. George Voinovich charged that
Southerners are what's wrong with the Republican Party.
"We got too many Jim DeMints and Tom Coburns," he told an interviewer
with the Columbus Dispatch, referring to GOP senators from South
Carolina and Oklahoma. "It's the Southerners. They get on TV and go
'errrr, errrrr.' People hear them and say, 'These people, they're
Southerners. The party's being taken over by Southerners. What the
hell they got to do with Ohio?' "
Down South, people are trying to figure out what "errrr, errrrr"
means. Jack Bass, author of eight books about social and political
change in the South, speculated in an e-mail that Voinovich really
meant grrrr, grrrrr, as in "growling canines whose bark scares more
than do Obama's purrs, especially with the Dow at a nine-month high."
Whatever Voinovich's sound effects were intended to convey, his
meaning was clear enough: Those ignorant, right-wing, Bible-thumping
rednecks are ruining the party.
Alas, Voinovich was not entirely wrong.
Not all Southern Republicans are wing nuts. Nor does the GOP have a
monopoly on ignorance or racism. And, the South, for all its sins, is
also lush with beauty, grace and mystery. Nevertheless, it is true
that the GOP is fast becoming regionalized below the Mason-Dixon line
and increasingly associated with some of the South's worst ideas.
It is not helpful (or surprising) that "birthers" -- conspiracy
theorists who have convinced themselves that Barack Obama is not a
native son -- have assumed kudzu qualities among Republicans in the
South. In a poll commissioned by the liberal blog Daily Kos,
participants were asked: "Do you believe that Barack Obama was born in
the United States of America or not?"
Hefty majorities in the Northeast, the Midwest and the West believe
Obama was born in the United States. But in the land of cotton, where
old times are not by God forgotten, only 47 percent believe Obama was
born in America and 30 percent aren't sure.
Southern Republicans, it seems, have seceded from sanity.
Though Voinovich's views may be shared by others in the party, it's a
tad late -- not to mention ungrateful -- to indict the South.
Republicans have been harvesting Southern votes for decades from seeds
strategically planted during the civil rights era. When Lyndon B.
Johnson predicted in 1965 that the Voting Rights Act meant the South
would go Republican for the next 50 years, he wasn't just whistling
Dixie.
A telling anecdote recounted by Pat Buchanan to New Yorker writer
George Packer last year captures the dark spirit that still hovers
around the GOP. In 1966 Buchanan and Richard Nixon were at the Wade
Hampton Hotel in Columbia, S.C., where Nixon worked a crowd into a
frenzy: "Buchanan recalls that the room was full of sweat, cigar
smoke, and rage; the rhetoric, which was about patriotism and law and
order, 'burned the paint off the walls.' As they left the hotel, Nixon
said, 'This is the future of this Party, right here in the South.' "
That same rage was on display again in the fall of 2008, but this time
the frenzy was stimulated by a pretty gal with a mocking little wink.
Sarah Palin may not have realized what she was doing, but Southerners
weaned on Harper Lee heard the dog whistle.
The curious Republican campaign of 2008 may have galvanized a
conservative Southern base -- including many who were mostly concerned
with the direction Democrats would take the country -- but it also
repelled others who simply bolted and ran the other way. Whatever
legitimate concerns the GOP may historically have represented were
suddenly overshadowed by a sense of a resurgent Old South and all the
attendant pathologies of festering hate and fear.
What the GOP is experiencing now, one hopes, are the death throes of
that 50-year spell that Johnson foretold. But before the party of the
Great Emancipator can rise again, Republicans will have to face their
inner Voinovich and drive a stake through the heart of old Dixie.

Yeah, right. Anybody that questions The Messiah is now a racist.
I think we saw this coming.
Never mind that Obama has proven himself to be a racist, along with
his butt buddies, Jeremiah Wright and Gates; his choice of supreme
court nominee is about as racist as it comes.
But of course in your little world, only WHITE people can be racist.
If you open your eyes, you will see that it is you left wing
hypocrites that are circling the drain now.
Have a nice day!

No low is too low for that left.

"Were" being the operative word here. And you have to go back about a
half century. Once the Democrats embraced the Civil Rights movement
they lost the South. As of today they aren't missing them much.

Hi,
there still are LOTS of Conservative Southern Democrats.
a Democrat introduced the CCW bill in Mississippi (home of that other
Great Democrat, Jefferson Davis).
Democrats supported CCW in Tennessee.
a Democrat in Mississippi is likely a LOT more conservative than a
Republican in NY... look at Rudy for example.
