Yes we did and we look forward to their arrival. No more obnoxious yankees to work around, no more heavy snow in the winter, no more union mandates, lower taxes, Georgia is about business and NCR is a welcomed addition.

They drive Volvos, SAAB's, and Lexuses,

Noonan admitted in her previous column that she is a Prius-driving vegetarian ecologist who wants to save the baby seals. And she thinks the Waxman-Markley cap-and-trade bill has a lot of merits. She reeketh of elitist liberal RINO to me just with those positions.

One thing is for certain: both groups will not co-exist peaceably in a single political party; not for much longer.

The middle class is still a majority. The Tea Party movement needs to morph into a middle-class movement that boots the east coast elitists out of the GOP and draws in working-class Dems to replace them. In other words, it re-builds much of the Reagan coalition, but brings in more middle-class folks and tells the RINOs to go to their natural home - the Dem party.

All is not pure and sweet here in the South, we do have our neighbor, Sen Lindsey Graham in South Carolina who likely qualifies as a “good” Southerner to Voinovich. He will tap dance for pieces of silver, say “yas suh,” hold his hat in his hand, whatever it takes to please his RINO and Democrat masters. It keeps him working in the “big house” and out of the fields with the rest of us Southerners.

Read the sentence again, but this time carefully. Durus did not say some of us Yankees are willing to cede a square foot of the USA to socialists

The party's being taken over by Southerners. What the hell they got to do with Ohio?"

Considering how much of a basket case Ohio is, why would any party want to emulate what happens there? And last I saw, the Ohio GOP was completely discredited due to rampant corruption.

Meanwhile, Tom Coburn, that dreadful Oklahoman, is one of the few truly ethical members of either house of Congress. Yet he's the problem with the party?

I simply said I’m disgusted they print her crap.

Get it?

Parker’s problem lies north of her neck.

She's been fully assimilated into the Beltway Borg. A land where money grows on trees (or, at least is created by the Fed) and concepts such as a budget and equal treatment under the law are hunted down and killed.

Actually the whole problem is Southern Women.

Yankee women are jealous and Yankee men are envious...

Are we a joke compared to some that have some “south will rise again” fantasy? You have heard of “divide and conquer”?

This so called Republican writer has learned her lessons well from team Obama. The fight in the Republican party is not between Southerners and Northerners, its between conservatives and statists. She is simply trying to diminish the conservative cause by regionailzing it. It's not just Southerners showing up at town hall meetings to protest Obama's move to big government socialism.

The truth is this country made a huge mistake in electing Obama. Most of the country is conservative, but with the help of the big government GOP, we put a socialist in power. Now, people are starting to comprehend the magnitude of the error and will be looking elsewhere for change. It will not be looking to the McCain, Rockefeller wing of the GOP of the party for this change; it will be looking for a conservative.

I sense that Parker and many other big government Republicans sense this growing conservative upsurge and will do almost anything to diminish it.

The roots of modern-day racism are in soil north of the Mason-Dixon line.

If we divide ourselves we shall surely be defeated which is exactly what they want.

That's what all scared Yankees say, "stay with us don't go, please Mr. South".. blah blah blah.. I'm tired of this crap.

Funny, you don't here that "Union at all cost" crap from most Southerners, at least the ones that call themselves Conservative.
