Oh really? Based on what? The inbreed voices in your head?
Greetings, F & L. :2wave:
:agree: Any one that can use the phrase "bless your heart" to both praise or insult is okay by me! How can you not just love polite and genteel Southerners? :mrgreen:
I have to live in a place to know what it is like?!
Whatever that is supposed to mean.
I`ve never been to the US. But I have been to Halifax, Quebec and PEI for a period of 9 months. I didn`t encounter biggotry, bible bashing toothless inbreeds, homophobia or any other filth. I found a friendly, comfortable and open multicultural society. Especialy Halifx, which reminded me alot of Hannover was a friendly place t be at. So what ever kind of Canada you may talk about, I guess it mainly exists in a minority fashion.
Like lynching and dating your own sister?
wohoooo. good for you.
Only people living in caves and mud huts rely on "first hand" expiriences exclusively.
Peoples and nations deserve their stereotypes and it is up to them to work on changing them.
And unlike Mississipi which flys a flag of slavery, you`ll never see the swastiker flag flown by any respected state or representative of out German nation. We learnd for histories mistakes to become a free and civilised nation. They chose to be proud of being uncivilised savages.
70 years of asking for forgiveness, realising our faults and learning from mistakes made us a nation that will soon leave these stereotypes behind.
You lot, are proud of your mistakes. And talk about how there was never a need for the civil rights movement, how "negros are better off in slavery", "war of northern agression" and have governors living in a ranch called "niggerhead".
But this is invain. The concept of "learning" and "historic responsibility" are things that swamp people minds are probably incapable of comprending.

First off, neither Nixon nor Reagan were from the south and neither were particularly known as racists. The other guy in the picture damned sure was a racist and damned sure was from the south. That there third guy is George Wallace and while he may well have been from the south he damned sure wasn't a Republican!!
Well, George Wallace was a southern racist who switched to the American Indpendent Party in 1968, this of course after the southern Democrats switched to the Republican party following the Civil Rights Act. As for Reagan and Nixon, their presidencies were filled with scandal and treachery; all on the record, so denials won't help. The article itself concesn voter supression in teh Georgia governors race, and does a very good job of reporting on teh Republican campaign of voter supression going on around the country, and the article also points out the legal committee that has been formed to make sure voter suppression is carried out where it can be. The article is well linked; meaning that it credibly validates what it says is true.
The conservatives here are just going to have to come to grips with reality.
No, your comments are based on ignorance. But I know where to go to find arrogant, leftist, know-nothing, Euro-trash opinions. Not sure anyone is really looking for that though.It`s not based on assumptions. It is based on cultural references and self presentation of an erea.
Somewhere along the line, someone in his gene pool mated with a trollWell, there ya go with your stereotypes. I'm not southern. I was born and raised in New York.
Now, how about you tell us what's so bad about "the south"?
Nor am I inbred....my father was Irish and my mother Dominican. No where near related to each other. In fact, my gene pool is likely much larger than yours.

Funny, I don't think of Humphrey courting the racist vote.In 1968, as Wallace's poll numbers declined toward the end of the presidential campaign, his voters went to Humphrey, not Nixon.

Well now, let's be fair. The Dominican Republic (and Dominica) are both "southern". Sure, you can refer to them as Caribbean if you like but they are definitely south!:lol:
Which southern democrats switched parties?
Here's a list of the folks who signed the Southern Manifesto - Southern Manifesto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Feel free to browse the list but I'm pretty sure that Strom Thurmond is the ONLY one who switched parties.
The southern Democrats were the southern people. The entirety of the south; for the most part, switched over to Republicanism as is common knowledge today. Sorry if I didn't make myself clear.

Yes, you have to at least have visited a place to venture the kind of racist stereotyping sewage you spew.
Glad you enjoyed the maratimes...I doubt the feeling was mutual.
Any speculation other than sharing the same party name immediately prior to the success of the "southern strategy?"For whatever reason, he got Wallace's voters.

The deep south; Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia, went with George Wallace as an American Independent candidate. Wallace represented the antebellum south, the grandsons of confederate soldiers were still alive...
Many did based on the States rights stance vs federalism. It is however, absurd to imply that racist people suddenly decided to join a party that had long since established anti-racist attitudes for racist reasons.
