1. We will not ridicule them

END OF DISCUSION,

I will not laugh, nor cry, when you have nothing to eat

Here is the tricky part, we will nto help you either

But this stop making fun of us is funny given who is saying it.

2. If they made the right decision, why wouldn't they ridicule us for

backing the wrong horse? What have they to worry about - their king was re-elected?

3. Heres Maher on the South:

New Rule: Southerners have to at least consider voting for candidates from the North. North Carolina Senator John Edwards has a powerful argument in his bid to be the Democratic nominee when he says, "What I give people is a candidate who can win everywhere in America." Translation: "We Southerners ain't gonna vote for no Yankee." "You suckers up north will take our Clintons and Carters, but we just ain't buyin' Kerrys and Deans."

And that's a shame, not just for Democrats, but for democracy itself. And I feel bad for the millions of intelligent people who live in a region still dominated by so much prejudice that anyone who wants to be president better have a twang in his voice and pronounce all four "e's" in the word "shit."

I'm sorry, but responding only to people who look and sound like you is small-minded. So if Southerners don't want to have an inferiority complex, I say, stop doing things that make reasonable people think you're inferior. Like getting rid of slavery was a good start. But don't stop there. Stop being the place that's always challenging the theory of evolution.

What's next to challenge? Gravity? Is that just a plot by the Jews up north to get people to drop spare change?

And I like the South. I love to party there. But Southerners need to let go of the Civil War, beginning with those re-enactments. First of all, you're re-enacting something you lost. It's one thing - it's one thing to gloat about victory, but when you do it about losing, your front porch is a few couches short of being decorated.

The time has come to move on. The time has come to consider - just consider - voting for a Yankee. Howard Dean's Vermont and John Kerry's Massachusetts are no longer where carpetbaggers come from. Carpet munchers, yes. That, we have established.

But there is no good reason that America, at this late date, still needs to be a house divided. At bottom, we all want the same things: dignity, security and someone to slap the shit out of Janet Jackson.

4. That's great!

Southerners have been Yankee bashing since the Civil War, and now they're whining about US? Cry me a fucking river...:nopity:

From Maher I'll take it, but don't any of the rest of you get any ideas.

7. it may sound childish, but I say "they started it"

Fuck them and the slaves they rode in on
