Liberal Radio Host Thom Hartmann: 'Should We Reoccupy the South with Union Forces'?

Newsbusters ^ | 7/11/15 | Jack Coleman

[tet68]

The South has been occupied by the
Union troops for the last 150
Years...

[TLI]

.

[SuzyQue]

Come on down, Thommie.

[45semi]

Libtards- ALWAYS the ones to think of using FORCE on others, to implement their idea(s) of 'how things should be'...
Since, of course, they are ALWAYS correct in their ass-umptions...
Wonder how he would like the results if it was tried?

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

The little faggot Thommie couldn’t fight his way out of a men’s restroom on the interstate.

[Forward the Light Brigade]

Moves like this may well start CW II -— They better not. These policies may get votes in some circles but a new CW would end the USA as we know it and hand the world to Putin and the New Russian Empire. The good thing—he would know how to handle the IS people.

[Waryone]

What? People in Oklahoma, Missouri, Kentucky and West Virginia can’t come to Jesus(land)? I’m certain the people in those states would be very surprised to know that.

[Scram1]

General Order No. 11 to be applied without an Abraham Lincoln around in modern U.S. state department policy towards Israel. Yeah, it’s the flag.

[justa-hairyape]

If you send your Union troops to the south, they won’t be coming back.

[headstamp 2]

Good luck with that.

[Pelham]

I wonder what his Freeper handle is.

[Pelham]

neo-yankee General Thom Hartmann:

[smokingfrog]

Thousands died so that the slaves could be free and all would be treated equally.

Unfortunately we’re now all slaves to the government and have lost our freedoms.

[VerySadAmerican]

The republicans were in control of congress when the South was occupied. They’re in control now. And a liberal wants the South occupied again. I say “Bring it on!”

[VerySadAmerican]

On second thought, we already are occupied.

[rikkir]

Not to mention Idaho, and Montana. Try keeping those folks in Liberalland.

[Joe Boucher]

Here in the South we pride ourselves with hunting. Many are very good shots and most do not care to be treated like prisoners.

[PeteB570]

Most of the large Army Posts are already in the south - From NC to Texas.

I can't tell whether your comment was said tongue-in-cheek but I will explain why my graphic just shows the eleven states that actually joined the Confederacy and seceded from the union before the Civil War officially started in 1861.

Missouri and Kentucky were accepted by the Confederacy after the war started but they never declared secession and were never fully controlled by Confederate forces. They retained their official adherence to the Union. Kentucky actually voted itself neutral in the conflict but allowed it's citizens to fight for whoever side they wanted. 2/3 fought for the South.

West Virginia was formed as a new state by Union sympathizers in Virginia and officially joined the Union side in 1863.

Oklahoma didn't become a state until 1907 and was just a territory during the Civil War.

[HotHunt]

Can’t argue with your statement.
