The Random, Angry South.

An article about the results of the New Deal got pretty weird today. Some kind of Southern Nationalism/conspiracy thing showed up. Check it out:

bert has the North's number:

You Yankess are certainly brainwashed.....

Always have been, always will be. If today were 1776, they would not support the Revolution. they prefer the King and his parliament

central_va makes the point a bit more..pointedly:

Unless you plan on coming south, you are in the Northern Socialist States of America (NSSA). Postionally, and if not by choice you are still defacto part of the problem.....

Because if you're going to stereotype blacks and Muslims and Democrats, I guess stereotyping the North comes easily.

From out of nowhere, x_plus_one takes his survivalism to the point of...oddness.

It will be interesting to see what happens to the Amish, the Mennonites and the Brethren. If they can survive this mess then we all have a chance to do so likewise.

Leisler traces the origin of the New Deal back...way back:

[THe New Deal] began at the beginning with Alexander Hamilton and the Federalist wanting to build a imperial government the equal of any European power. Then the Civil War, followed by the Progressive, Good Government and the Municipal movements of the 1890’s and topped off with the centralization of money with the Federal Reserve Act.

All these have centralized power at the expense of the individual.

Damn Civil War and Founding Fathers! Socialists all!

dalereed has a point to make about FDR:

Take FDR and shove him up your backside, he was the worst President this country ever had!

I not only grew up with that AH communist as President but was taught to hate him at home!

So wingnuts are not so new, it seems.
