**** the south

[tharun]

I believe this is from fuckthesouth.com. It's quite amusing. Discuss the issues raised, please:

Fuck the South. Fuck 'em. We should have let them go when they wanted to leave. But no, we had to kill half a million people so they'd stay part of our special Union. Fighting for the right to keep slaves - yeah, those are states we want to keep.

And now what do we get? We're the fucking Arrogant Northeast Liberal Elite? How about this for arrogant: the South is the Real America? The Authentic America. Really?

Cause we fucking founded this country, assholes. Those Founding Fathers you keep going on and on about? All that bullshit about what you think they meant by the Second Amendment giving you the right to keep your assault weapons in the glove compartment because you didn't bother to read the first half of the fucking sentence? Who do you think those wig-wearing lacy-shirt sporting revolutionaries were? They were fucking blue-staters, dickhead. Boston? Philadelphia? New York? Hello? Think there might be a reason all the fucking monuments are up here in our backyard?

No, No. Get the fuck out. We're not letting you visit the Liberty Bell and fucking Plymouth Rock anymore until you get over your real American selves and start respecting those other nine amendments. Who do you think those fucking stripes on the flag are for? Nine are for fucking blue states. And it would be 10 if those Vermonters had gotten their fucking Subarus together and broken off from New York a little earlier. Get it? We started this shit, so don't get all uppity about how real you are you Johnny-come-lately "Oooooh I've been a state for almost a hundred years" dickheads. Fuck off.

Arrogant? You wanna talk about us Northeasterners being fucking arrogant? What's more American than arrogance? Hmmm? Maybe horsies? I don't think so. Arrogance is the fucking cornerstone of what it means to be American. And I wouldn't be so fucking arrogant if I wasn't paying for your fucking bridges, bitch.

All those Federal taxes you love to hate? It all comes from us and goes to you, so shut up and enjoy your fucking Tennessee Valley Authority electricity and your fancy highways that we paid for. And the next time Florida gets hit by a hurricane you can come crying to us if you want to, but you're the ones who built on a fucking swamp. "Let the Spanish keep it, it’s a shithole," we said, but you had to have your fucking orange juice.

The next dickwad who says, "It’s your money, not the government's money" is gonna get their ass kicked. Nine of the ten states that get the most federal fucking dollars and pay the least... can you guess? Go on, guess. That’s right, motherfucker, they're red states. And eight of the ten states that receive the least and pay the most? It’s too easy, asshole, they’re blue states. It’s not your money, assholes, it’s fucking our money. What was that Real American Value you were spouting a minute ago? Self reliance? Try this for self reliance: buy your own fucking stop signs, assholes.

Let’s talk about those values for a fucking minute. You and your Southern values can bite my ass because the blue states got the values over you fucking Real Americans every day of the goddamn week. Which state do you think has the lowest divorce rate you marriage-hyping dickwads? Well? Can you guess? It’s fucking Massachusetts, the fucking center of the gay marriage universe. Yes, that’s right, the state you love to tie around the neck of anyone to the left of Strom Thurmond has the lowest divorce rate in the fucking nation. Think that’s just some aberration? How about this: 9 of the 10 lowest divorce rates are fucking blue states, asshole, and most are in the Northeast, where our values suck so bad. And where are the highest divorce rates? Care to fucking guess? 10 of the top 10 are fucking red-ass we're-so-fucking-moral states. And while Nevada is the worst, the Bible Belt is doing its fucking part.

But two guys making out is going to fucking ruin marriage for you? Yeah? Seems like you're ruining it pretty well on your own, you little bastards. Oh, but that's ok because you go to church, right? I mean you do, right? Cause we fucking get to hear about it every goddamn year at election time. Yes, we're fascinated by how you get up every Sunday morning and sing, and then you're fucking towers of moral superiority. Yeah, that's a workable formula. Maybe us fucking Northerners don't talk about religion as much as you because we're not so busy sinning, hmmm? Ever think of that, you self-righteous assholes? No, you're too busy erecting giant stone tablets of the Ten Commandments in buildings paid for by the fucking Northeast Liberal Elite. And who has the highest murder rates in the nation? It ain't us up here in the North, assholes.

Well this gravy train is fucking over. Take your liberal-bashing, federal-tax-leaching, confederate-flag-waving, holier-than-thou, hypocritical bullshit and shove it up your ass.

And no, you can't have your fucking convention in New York next time. Fuck off

The cost of living is generally higher in blue states, so we get paid more, and we pay more taxes. I could be living like a king in Alabama, but instead I rent a 1 bedroom for $1150 a month. Maybe not like a king, but I would have more nintendo games at least. Unless the cost of living is factored in, the transfer of money from state to state through the Federal government isn't really relevant.

The rest I won't comment on because they're playing on red state stereotypes that I've never run across.

[Lebeau]

Considering I'm from Alabama and I rented a two bedroom house for $475 a month, yeah, like a king would probably fit.

And as far as the statement: "Who do you think those wig-wearing lacy-shirt sporting revolutionaries were? They were fucking blue-staters, dickhead." I don't know what history this guy is looking in, but last I checked, blue states is a relatively new term. Now has nothing to do with then. How does this guy know that our founding fathers wouldn't have elected Bush? We're free today because they had the balls to stick it to England. Yet, this person is associating these heroes with his own neutered "Ooh! Let's not invade Iraq cause soldiers might die" self-interested groups. Look, I knew the risks when I signed up. I need no fucking sympathy.

Oh yeah, and weren't Virginia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia among the thirteen colonies represented by the stripes on our flag?

It seems like the general gist of this article's Amendments evocation is to belittle one Amendment because it's just one of 10 in the Bill of Rights. Ok, does that make it any less important?

"It's your money, It's not the government's money" No one said anything about "It's the South's money" "Your" included the North too. And people wonder why some folks in the South hold on to the Confederacy. The vast majority of us took our abuse after the Civil War was over and are living our lives as Americans. this guy seems to want to start the war all over again. It's not about red or blue states. Many folks voted for both candidates in all states. There are a shitload of liberals in the South, yet fuck us all? No no no... fuck the writer of this article, I happen to love my Yankee brothers. However backwards they might be. *poke* Oh, I forgot a few thousand fuck bitch dickhead shits... maybe because of one thing he forgot to mention in his article... class, which I did forsake in favor of passion. Sorry.


Feel free to chime in at any time.

well, it's hard to take a moral superior attitude and argument seriously when every other word is f****. other than channeling dennis leary, it sounds like he's living up to the very stereotype of the north he''s decrying. most of his arguments are based on emotions and not facts. he complains about florida and hurricanes and then derides the natives for building on a swamp. not sure how swampland has anything to do with hurricanes. as if the north doesn't have it's share of winter storms, california has earthquakes, mudslides and forrest fires, the midwest tornadoes.

if he wants to secede that's fine. think we have most of the military bases as well as a space program, oil, and the cigarrettes that he's smoking. and at one time the material for all his clothing.

abraham lincoln, born in kentucky. george washington, born in virginia. thomas jefferson, virginia. jimmy carter, georgia. dolley madison, our first first lady born in piedmont, nc.

nc born and bred. first in flight, first in freedom.

Great post Lebeau. Well said on all points.
