Southern war tactics
I think this is similar to how they fight wars. My dad always told me that the Scots were the most vicious fighters in the UK. Scots are the greatest influence of the southern culture. There is only one way to deal with them and I believe Stonewall Jackson figured it out. Burn them to ground.

1. Actually it was William Tecumseh Sherman who burned the South to the ground.
In burning "them" to the ground, what are you proposing?? Are you sending Sherman back or is there a metaphorical

way that you would like to share. I am one of the Scottish Southerners, and I'd like to know so I don't get caught

in the fire. Dems better fight like hell 24/7. BTW I thought Palin was from Alaska. I didn't know it joined the South.
