I'm a New Englander turning 70 on Sunday.
So don't slam me for not being around long enough to vent honestly about the damned south.

It's beautiful country, in many places.
And there are plenty of good, right-thinking people, here and there. (esp the ones here at DU)

BUT NEVER ENOUGH AND NEVER WIDELY-SPREAD.

If we had just let them secede in the Civil War, the rest of us might have been better off over the interim 160 years.
