We have been told for years that the Confederacy was a government of hate and slavery. This is false and is nothing but yankee propaganda. Now it is the propaganda of the marxist left, who fears the spirit of defiance that the Confederate flag represents. The true causes of the war had to do with economic reasons and the defense of the sovereignty of the states, which the war destroyed. It is true that slavery was a hot issue of the time, but not the cause of the war. If the south had won, slavery would have ended here like it did every where else in the world except in commumist and African countries where it still goes on. There would have been no reconstruction, no Ku Klux Klan and no Jim Crow. It is quite possible a reunion of the states would have occurred, but not at the point of a bayonet. Yes, southerners love the Confederate flag. We revere Robert E Lee and Jefferson Davis. But not because of slavery or hate towards people of other races. The Confederacy fought to preserve the original intent of the founding fathers of the United States. The Confederate constitution was very similar to the U.S. constitution, though it did allow slavery, it was not a racist manifesto. One other thing. We get along with black people better here than anywhere else. We have to. We live among plenty of them. Southerners have not tried to run blacks away from the polls or supress black voting in a long, long time.
Lately southerners have had to endure an unrelenting barrage of insults from the north, and we're getting fed up with it. My ancestors all fought for the south and I'm damned proud of that. Bill Clinton is a liar, a traitor to the south and a traitor to the U.S. and the whole idea of freedom. He has strengthened our enemies which we will discover when North Korea fires a nuclear missle at us. Don't think it could happen? Remember 9-11-2001.

P.S. I know this is not quad, but including Bill Clinton on an SACD kinda opened a can of worms.
