In today's upside down world, the Old South most strongly supports our traditional Christian values, devotion to constitutionally limited government, private enterprise and equal justice under the law as opposed to special privileges for the politically connected.

If you ponder your statement in comparison to commentary and actions from prominent Southerners of the period, such as Davis, Lee, Clay, Calhoun, Simms, Timrod, and Toombs, you will find that those values have remained intact in the South.

Kind of funny considering that they all rejected Thomas Jefferson and the Declaration of Independence while Lincoln embraced him and his ideas.

Irony... ain't it great?
