http://www.salon.com/2013/10/13/the_south_is_holding_america_hostage/There is another thread about South homage to civil war and the "lost cause of the confederacy"...

FDR era view of the political spectrum
A former advisor of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s, Rexford Tugwell, skillfully uses the example of a
community’s need for a new train station to illustrate the difference between liberals and radicals:
“Liberals would like to rebuild the station while the trains are running; radicals prefer to blow up the
station and forego service until the new structure is built.” One might add that conservatives would
prefer to keep the old station, being satisfied with it, while reactionaries would abandon the station
entirely since they do not approve of trains in the first place.
