Right - which is why they account for 2/3 of GDP and are responsible for the lions share of all the technologies and inventions you use every day...including those you use to yell at liberals with.

Mind Boggling, I tell you.

Opposite day - or "backwards days" - the games we used to play as 8 year olds. Most grew out of it but the hookworm apparently hasn't allowed many to advance that far.

Please "thank a liberal" when you need medical treatment, use the internet or use your smartphone, google, amazon or any other construct of the modern world.

Thank a conservative for those modified schoolbooks in Texas, the ability to have other people paddle your kids and vast attempts at inserting superstitions in our science.

The south is different because since the Civil War southern whites and blacks have tended to vote much more as solid racial blocs in opposition to each other than groups in other regions. The only time that they both voted for the same Party was when they both voted Democratic from the 1930's until the passage of the civil rights legislation in the 1960's. During that period, the southern conservatives no longer had enough strength in the party to control the presidential nomination process (1924 Democratic Convenion a.k.a. "The Klanbake" marked the end), but southern congressmen stayed with the Democrats in name only to safeguard their seniority, through which they could stop or water down any civil rights/progressive legislation not to their liking. Blacks understood the difference between the national Democrats and the southern DINO's and knew that in national elections the Democrats were not the party of Jim Crow. As those old bulls retired, they were mostly replaced by young Republicans who didn't have to play the same old seniority charade.

Race has always been central to southern politics.

Capitalism drives innovation, not liberal socialism. The sad thing is that many people that read these boards think that your uninformed rhetoric is true. In your fantasy world money and capital must grow on trees and not come from work.
Real capitalism is based on productive work, not socialism. You are wrong again and that isn't fake news like you believe. Are you ever factually correct about anything? How much does Soros pay you to post lies?

Modern liberalism is simply the art of capitalizing on dysfunctional people who can't even manage their own lives and family but think they know what best for everyone in the country. Totally absurd.

You will never hear them provide any factual insight because they are devoid of it. They are parasites to a corrupted system.

The only hope for America is for responsible and aware people to root them out with facts and truly productive action seeing how their business and lives are based on lies and dysfunction.
The thing that is always missing in post like this is supporting evidence. After you make each claim....how about a "for example:"

I am no fan of liberals....but I am less of a fan of conservatives.

I am saying that the South has a race problem that many dont want to acknowledge .

Most blacks are in the south. Therefore the left is calling black people racist. Funny thing is most ppl in the south get along just fine until the media stirs stuff up.

Now the liberal left is opening up wounds that have healed.

The liberals are now implying that the southern people and keeping their statues are a sign of racism and that their statues must come down. The left are calling the southern people traitors as if they are still the enemy. This is dangerous to hear this.

They are now dividing the country again to demand these statues are to be removed. It is as if they believe the south is racist yet the history of this country has long moved on.

The left is stirring up any hate they can through dividing us.. Those self righteous people who think they are fighting a cause are creating hate and division.. these so called do gooders are ratcheting it up and it will not be good for our nation.
Rubbish. You are just angry Trump has turned out to be a complete global joke and has reversed course on his promise to make america white.

that is your real issue. The left has is not dividing the nation your alt right buddies are doing that with Trumpy as their glorious leader.

Trump has done nothing to bring the nation together since his narrow win. Instead he has attacked everyone , including his own party, leaders of friendly nations , TV stations, Newspapers , individuals , his own AG, and most of his cabinet.

The spoiled and entitled, lazy and irresponsible shiftless modern liberals are using politically correct and unscientific ideology to further their welfare state agenda because due to their ideology itself, they have no place in a true and productive capitalist economy not based on perpetual indebtedness.

Their is no scientific basis to political correctness. The only thing they have that may have going in their ideology is that that 'global warming' may POSSIBLY have some scientific basis to being caused by humans. But then again are not they the biggest consumers in the country according to what they say? If they are in fact the biggest consumers then they must be the ones who are contributing to climate change the most if in fact there is any truth to it!

Clowns and hypocrites!

Rubbish. the liberal cities/regions and states drive this economy without us liberals creating massive wealth with our IP the USA would be a backwater.

it is real , it is measurable and you know it is true. We create the devices, the software the entertainment, we are the bleeding edge! Without our LIBERAL scientists, you would die younger and much much poorer.

You should simply thanks the liberals and go back to extracting your wealth from cheap labor like republicans love to do.

We will continue to build wealth and we will continue to ship it to those broke red states that hate education and regulation ..

3. There are new Statues being commissioned today that will be up before the year is over.


I get that you dislike, maybe even hate the left., But you cant pretend like these statues are just of Southern Pride, they arent.
not to quibble... but most of the statues were put there in the 1930s.


... ok im quibbling


The south never fixed? are you from the south? I am and yea there is still prejudice and racism. maybe things have not progressed with the speed some would like but... you see progression and its real.


interracial marriage is now not much of an issue at all. that by itself is according to anthropologists lets you know that things have changed drastically.


but it works better to keep black folk voting dem if scare them with the nasty racist hood wearing killer.


peace.
