This screed was taken from a post on Southern Heritage News and Views and is a little dated but it shows the extremes some Leftists and some Blacks go when looking at anything Southern. He compares a map of the 2004 Presidential Election and a map of the Pre-WBTS U.S divided up by Slave States, Free States and Teritories and tries to make something out of it.

Ah yes, those confederate states like Ohio, Indiana, Colorado, Utah, Nevada, and the Dakotas!

Yeah, I sure see alot of sh-t kickers flying confederate battle flags in Somerset, Hunterdon, Morris, Warren, Sussex, and Monmouth Counties here in New Jersey (all of which voted for Bush in 2004). You could make an argument about Cape May County, which is south of the Mason-Dixon line, but so is Cumberland, which voted for Kerry, and had legally segregated schools into the 1950s.

Because we know that the most pressing problem affecting the black community is guys displaying Confederate flags.

That inner-city murder rate? It just PALES in comparison to that supremely important Confederate flag issue.

Red state/slavery == blue state/abortion.

What a pant-load. Lincoln was a Republican. Byrd was a KKK Democrat. Jim-Crow? Democrats. Come on people. Can’t we just hire Mark Levin to go around and verbally vaporize these twits?

The author failed to note (as did his Harvard-educated ‘sharp brother’, apparently) that those red states of the Old South were (D) from the Civil War up until ~20 years ago...

The democrat party has been enslaving blacks since the 1820s. It has ALWAYS been the party of slavery, depending on “black field hands” (like Sharpton, Jesses Jackson and the despicable author of this nonsense) to keep the chattel in line.

In contrast the Republican Party, and its principles, have always been there to liberate not only blacks, but all Americans.

Wasn’t the DNC the official political party of the Confederate States?

What that map really shows, is that where ever organized crime flourishes, there too is the DNC dominant.

Hey, I went up to the black studies conference put on by Black Harvard to meet the brothers from BlackAmericaWeb and talk black politics and maybe do a little black fishing ...

Oops, rambled a little there. Just the way that article read to me. On the other hand, I did learn that Congressman Artur Davis actually has a brain and some sense.

He must be a lonely man in the Congressional Black Caucus.

The reason Northern and Midwestern states eschewed slavery of blacks was that it didn’t work in their farm & factory economies. Had it been advantageous to them, they would have had as many slaves as the South.

The democrats are the party of: Sen. Robert Byrd (a KKK member & recruiter), the KKK itself, the Confederacy, the Copperheads, Japanese internment, welfare giveaways, the Federal Reserve, the Income Tax, losing China to communism, Jim Crow, etc., etc...

Dont forget the greatest and most potentially dangerous 5th column going, the State Department.

This is a hit piece since there was originally slavery in the north as well.

WHY DO BLACK AMERICANS VOTE DEMOCRAT BY 90% EVERY ELECTION? I grew up in the South (Texas) home of Lyndon Baines Johnson. It was the Blue Dog Democrats who kept Segregation alive in the South and fought against Civil Rights. My home county, in Texas, was 80% Democrats who used the “N” word as normal as breathing. It was totally segregated.

It was Republicans, the Party of Lincoln, who worked for Civil Rights for the American Blacks in the 40s, 50s and early 60s. LBJ just gets the credit for getting it passed. How? He collared the Democrat Senators & Congressmen and told them they had to pass it to keep the “nigra” vote. They were dragged, kicking and screaming, into session to vote for it.

As the old Campmeeting Song goes: “I was there when it happened and I guess I oughta know.”

60 percent to 40 percent. That’s barely passing in my book

He must be using Louie Farrakhan math - - that's a landslide in my book.
