1. Oh yea. I am beginnng to think that the red red rePIG south really

won the Civil war in its cultural aspects. Vitter is too stupid to realize that there is also a GM plant in Shreveport......He is called diaper Dan in Louisiana

[ooglymoogly]

2. Why am I watching this claptrap on DU

no mention of the bullion's of taxpayer $'s giveaways to these southern foreign auto companies in subsidies. Most of the south pays 1 dollar into the Treasury in taxes and gets $10 back....that's quite a scam. Tell me again who won the civil war.

3. That's true. There are a lot of states that get more than than pay in.

Someday we should talk about that!

[enuegii]

5. Alabama gets about $1.65 for every dollar it pays into the Treasury...

which is admittedly shameful, but before you slam an entire region you should get you "facts" within an order of magnitude or so...

[ooglymoogly]

8. Dig a little deeper and you find subsidies, boondoggles, out and out giveaway's and pork

that does not figure into your official $1.65. But even $1.65 to $1 is a pretty good scam, er that's bill for the taxpayer to pay. Name me a true blue state that gets this kind of taxpayer return on its money. My 10 to 1 is a little bit of an exasperation but is kinda like the $80 salaries the auto workers are pulling down story that is all over the "mainstream" media.

7. You haven't really noticed

that those who lose a war against the US get the gravy, while those who win get the bone?

4. NOT a GOOD DEAL

I just read the article about sister Sara's synagogue,oops ment church being burned. I am hoping this kind of idea does not catch on across the south after last nights debocal by the southern repuck Senators. I am just afraid they may have bitten off a little more than they are willing 2 chew after the Auto Bail out screw up. Wen i was a Young man i was a member of the IBEW an they were rough Union... Just a thought in passing an i really hope the world has moved well past those days and times....
