Some Southern Thoughts

Black ghettos are a Northern not a Southern invention.


Put in the plainest terms, the War of 1861-1865 was an invasion and conquest of the South by fellow Americans in control of the U.S. government—Republicans with no more than 40% support of the American people. It could not and did not save the Union. It turned the Union of the forefathers into something else. It was not a war to free the slaves. That was only an opportunistic move that never took into consideration whatsoever the welfare of African Americans.


Between 1860 and 1890, African Americans suffered a ten-year decline in the span of life and suffered many other declines in their welfare. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.


Satan is real. He is quite active these days in Washington, D.C.


A large proportion of the members of the U.S. Congress are intellectual and morally shallow people whose actions are entirely self-referential and self-serving. Their only interest in the people they are supposed to represent is maintaining their own popularity by federal payoffs of one kind another.


If you look carefully at all the atrocities that have been done to symbols of Confederate heritage, you will find that Southern Republicans have played a major role in the atrocities every time.
