My fellow native Texans and fellow southerners, are you tired of being harassed, discriminated against, maligned, ridiculed, and otherwise mistreated because of your southern ancestry? Are you tired of being told, "you talk funny?" Ever had those Yankee carpetbaggers in your neighborhood shake their heads when you proudly fly the Stars and Bars on Jefferson Davis' birthday? Well, we don't have to take it any more. Just declare yourself a Confederate Southern American on your 2010 Census form. Kirk Lyons of the Southern Legal Resource Center has the details:
You just can't make this stuff up.
You just can't make this stuff up.
I've told you all that I don't have a sound card in my computer here at work. Can't we get these videos posted with "closed captioning"??????????

On second thought, I might just be better off being shielded from this type of stupidity.
..
Yeah, I think that's best.
You did good, Shortstuff.
At first I am astounded by this. I think it's gotta be a put on. But then I see the web address. I guess Crackers and Repugs just can't accept losing.
WHACKJOB
White Hysterical Angry Christian Kluxer Just Out Bitchin'?
I had several conservative friends all up in arms about the census and how it was asking "intrusive" questions regarding income, birthdate, age, etc. and how they (such *righteous*, upstanding white Christians, you know) were only going to check "American" as their race on that horrible, liberal, socialist, communist-loving census form that would force pinkos into their living rooms and take away their Bibles.
Jesus.
I got the form. It had ten very non-intrusive questions.
As I told one "friend", I failed to understand the faux outrage. All of the information they were requesting could also be found on an IRS form or on their birth certificate. She didn't appreciate my comment.
Said "friend" promptly sent me a very nasty note and also threatened me. Upon which I responded, "do not threaten me, lady. I don't get pushed around easily."
Suffice to say, that person is no longer a "friend", online or in person.
Thanks for the compliment, June...I'll have to get another cup of coffee and see if I can get the ideas flowing for that!
Oops sorry doc, I accidentally copied an extra line from a response to a whack job (deogcat) on the chron who was constantly posting and quoting Debbie Schlussel on the SS registration fake conspiracy theory but didn't see anyhting wrong with George W. Bush, Karl Rove, Dick Cheney, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Armitage all in the W administration banging the drums for two simultaneous wars but draft dodged from their respective wars with multiple deferments and special favors to get into an already full National Guard that LBJ announced he was never going to send to Vietnam.
Doc, not that I'm a big fan of lying blowhard Sean Hannity, but the Debbie Schlussel that supposedly exposed this scam is a whack job so you have to take this with a grain of salt until corroborated by a legitimate source.
Debbie Schlussel has been on a screwy conspiracy tear for a while with Barack Obama's Selective Service registration being a supposed "fake".
You can't take the word of a determined nut case that tries to create a manufactured conspiracy regarding Obama about some idiotic non-registration for a non-draft during a time of no wars the US was involved in.
No irrational hate there at all huh, deo?
That's disgusting Doc but not surprising at all.
Off topic but impotant: This lil tidbit found at Susans-never made much headline...perhaps we can get it out...

I know this is blasphemy but that guy appears to have been both drinking kool-aid and smoking pot.
Lol! He wants White Trash to be a protected class?
hmmm,
I thought the census form was suppose to have about 300 questions on it, including a complete security background check. Ten questions...hell, that's not even worth filling out.
I think that guy is a comedian, albeit, not a very good one!
Can someone tell these folks that 'redneck' is easier to pronounce?
Just put "Mensa" down on the Census form and be done with it!
That's right. You can declare that you are a slave owner wannabee who wants to break away from the Republic.
Surprised there isn't a noose on their flag.
so they want a voice again lol? AND they would like to receive the respect they having coming? i see they no longer even feel the need to wear their sheets and hoods. hopefully the govt will be flagging these write in census forms and forwarding them to homeland security. btw, can i write in "carpetbagger" on mine?
Well, I'll be hornswaggled! I've been discriminated against before, but I never knew that I could have added that particular reason to the list of personal anomalies that I already profess to espouse! I am indeed in awe of the possibilities of this new idea!
Why can't they just write "PAST" for "proud and
stupid too"?
Am sure Shortstuff and Carguy can come up with some better ones.
