Speaking of Losers

Apparently some “Southern Heritage” site linked to one of my “The Confederates Were Losers” screeds, which is precipitating another wave of good ol’ boys to trot out their victimized wailings and send them to me in poorly spell-checked form. To forestall having the same argument over and over again, this would be a good time to trot out the various screeds I have on the subject in my archives and link to them, so they can read them all before sending their verbiage. So here they are.

And Even Good Ol’ Boys Know This (To a Point)
And I Don’t Care That You Think I’m Being Unfair to the Confederacy.
I hope this clears up any confusion.
Update: I’ve had cause to add a new installment: The “States’ Rights” Argument is Just Plain Stupid. Enjoy!

What Dean meant
I’ve been toying on and off with commenting on the Dean/flag flap lately after seeing Zell “Why am I not a Republican” Miller on the Meet the Press this weekend deliberately misconstruing Dean’s (admittedly “dangerous”) statements about how he wants…
