Northern Protestants alllied with Jews to defeat their common enemies:  Catholics and The South.  

Catholics and The South have common enemies and tend to be more conservatite/traditional, than northern protestants and jews.

Southern Protestants support Israel and Jews.

So what if the South is more 'traditional' when it comes to values? If one ignores the immorality that Israel does against the Palestinians one has to question whether that is a person with morals.

If you take a drive through the South you'll see plenty of **** *****, the same as in the North.

No, but you made the comment in regards to The South, not The North and it is bologna.  

As far as economics goes, that disgusting term is definitely a slander towards  lower income whites, but especially Southern ones.  

Your use of that term disgusts me;  it is a term for our enemies to use, not our patriots.  

Again working class does not equal white trash but those who 'shack up' do. And yes there is white trash in the North as well. Have you seen how men and women dress these days, both North and South? I don't understand this over-glorification of the South. Sure one should respect one's anscestors who fought for it but neither should one hold on to the ideal of the South being 'better' than the North, especially not these days. One should look at both regions having both their good and bad points.

No, you don't get it.  The term is a racial slur.  

Then it's a slur then. It's the same as calling a black a Negro or a Hispanic a mestizo however one finds in many whites these days some abhorrent behavior, just as with minorities.

Not even close.

Uh yeah if one acts like 'white trash' one rightly deserves the name. The South went through the sɛҳuąƖ revolution and feminism just like the rest of the nation. I've lived my whole life here and being a convert to Catholicism I've been around my own Southern relatives, and trust me there is nothing praiseworthy to be said, with their fornication, adultery, divorce, feminism, praise of Israel, and among the 'baby boomer' Southern crowd they are just as liberal about race as a Northern liberal, oh and yes their love of economics, low taxes, and free trade.

Hell to them with my criticism of blacks, Jews, and women I'm the nαzι and fascist.

That being said I can also understand that the liberal counterculture was nothing to praise about either with it marching South to support civil rights for blacks.

Anyway back to the original point:

I do remember the way the old history was taught that the teachers would insist that 'Honest Abe' would have never allowed Reconstruction.

This thread wins  the price for the most unusual title of any I have ever seen on this forum.
