Southern Nationalist Let Their Colors Shine
As you can see from the three tweets above, Southern Nationalists like “Dr.” Michael Hill of the League of the South and Michael Cushman of Southern Nationalist Network are not as concerned about Southern Heritage as they are Southern “White” Supremacy. Southern Heritage is purely a front for their disdain of everything American today and a wish to return to the days of the antebellum south. I personally find their views of history quite disturbing. What do you think?
God Channeling Lincoln?
This story comes from Right Wing Watch.Org and discusses how..
“…every time Lou Engle leads a The Call prayer rally, the future of America is at stake. Later this month, Engle will be bringing The Call to Fredericksburg, Virginia, this time with the help of televangelist Pat Robertson. Engle said that his rally intends to “intercede on behalf of the blood that has been shed as a result of racism and abortion and ask for God’s mercy on behalf of our nation” by praying at Civil War sites, and Robertson claimed the event is part of a “spiritual battle which can only be won by overwhelming prayer”.
I wonder why in a 150 years of the American people, someone did not think of this before…it is so simple…I mean all I need to do is pray over and over that Neo-Confederates like Connie Chastain/Ward/Reb could somehow understand the history of the conflict and all the racism and hatred that she will not denounce would just wash away.
Also it appears that God is now channeling Abraham Lincoln according to event planner Lou Engle…
“The word Lou received from God is, “A house divided against itself cannot stand.””
It appears all the Lost Causers were right about the sainthood of Lincoln…but they were just a bit off…Lincoln was not canonized by the North, he damn well took the thrown himself and is now talking to evangelicals.
May God (and Lincoln if he can) help us all!
Emotional History…
Tea Party Racism
Well if you had any question as to why the Teabaggers were up in arms over the NAACP requesting that the Teabaggers & Republicans renounce racism in their ranks (You see the NAACP was not calling all teabaggers racists, just pointing out that some are) one of their own has issued a statement…actually a letter to President Lincoln…
Dear Mr. Lincoln
We Colored People have taken a vote and decided that we don’t cotton to that whole emancipation thing. Freedom means having to work for real, think for ourselves, and take consequences along with the rewards. That is just far too much to ask of us Colored People and we demand that it stop!
In fact we held a big meeting and took a vote in Kansas City this week. We voted to condemn a political revival of that old abolitionist spirit called the ‘tea party movement’.
Now is that not wonderful…a white guy speaking for blacks everywhere. Also, I would bet the farm or should I say plantation that there are just as many whites “cashing” in as Mark Williams say there are blacks “cashing” in on the system.
I did really like this quote from the Huffington Post story on this idoit…Mark Williams…the commentor said:
“Perhaps the most racist point of all in the tea parties is their demand that government “stop raising our taxes.” That is outrageous! How will we coloreds ever get a wide screen TV in every room if non-coloreds get to keep what they earn? Totally racist! The tea party expects coloreds to be productive members of society?” [Quote by Mark Williams]
Here is the quintessence of Tea Party belief. Yes, it’s couched in racism, but it isn’t about race. They oppose taxes because they believe their money is taken from them and given to people they don’t like. Blacks are only one part of that group – and in fact there are plenty of black Republicans – even Tea Partiers – who feel the same way, proving (they say) that it isn’t about race but about being undeserving.”
