    And, I just love how Southerners try to claim the mantle of being "real" patriots, considering their forebears' rebellion in the early 1860s. Well, to them, I say: go read www.fuckthesouth.com and then get over it -- you're gonna have Obama at "your" aptly named "White House."

    This is just what I was talking about.

    Who do you think this helps, exactly?
