3. Oh, I thought you were talking about teabaggers
What you are really trying to do is bash the South. Not allowed here.

7. That's not really fair.
He/she's claiming that the Tea Baggers' argument is a confederate/secessionist one. It's a ideological criticism, not a regional one.

5. They can't have their country back either
Sorry, they will just have to join the rest of us living in 2010. Slavery is no longer allowed, women can vote and their god is not going to be allowed to become a state religion. Fuck the racist assholes.

6. This is where the leadership and rank and file split
The base wants to go back to 1861, and their leaders want to party like it's 1899, when capitalism was unadulterated.

10. A fact that all my teabagger relatives lament on a daily basis.
They do wonder which state will be the first to secede THIS time. They make me sick.
