Note to the Supreme Court: We still got issues.
Trayvon Martin. A guy comes to an Ohio school board meeting brandishing a Confederate flag. An aide to Rand Paul was a leader in the Southern secessionist group, The League of the South.
Yes, some things have changed but clearly some things have not changed enough.
One thing may be improving. According to League of the South President Michael Hill, the flap surrounding Rand Paul’s staffer shows that “there’s no place in the GOP for Southerners who wish to remain . . . Southerners.” How does Hill define a Southerner?
Just so there’s no chance that you’ll confuse The League with the GOP or any other “conservative” group, here’s what we stand for: The survival, well being, and independence of the Southern people. And by “the Southern people,” we mean White Southerners who are not afraid to stand for the people of their race and region.
The League of the South calls for Southern secession to create a haven for white Christians — at least for Christians who think there is a need for a white Christian haven. If Hill is right that the GOP is not a place for such views, then that would be good news for the GOP and for the nation.
Given Rand Paul’s ‘aw shucks’ response, it isn’t clear that he agrees with Hill or that Hill is right about the GOP.
While I find Hill’s ideology repulsive, I am glad he drew a line between what he believes and what he thinks the GOP stands for.
Now if only the GOP would draw the same line.

I haven’t understood why the look for a white Christian haven should be “repulsive”. Shouldn’t every person and every group have a haven?
Pat – Do you believe in heaven? Do you think there will be little ghettos in heaven for “every group?”
Do you believe that God created the numerous ethnicities and races of the world in order to mongrelize them all together?
I also notice that you didn’t answer Patrocles’ question. Do you oppose White Christians having a homeland of their own? Do you also oppose other religious, racial and ethnic groups having their own homelands? What gives you the moral authority to tell people that they can not be free and live among their own people in their land?

I know several Teabaggers and they’re not racist. I’ve met some of their friends and they are racist. The issue I see besides their political viewpoints based on a fictional version of America that has never existed is that the ones who are not racist will not call out the ones who are racist. Then they complain when they’re tarred with the same brush as people state the Tea Party is racist. They’re so concerned with winning elections that they will ally and vote for people that clearly do not believe in following laws they don’t like even when those laws are constitutional.
The GOP is going to shatter under the internal stress because it like the Democratic Party must have the support of moderates in order to win elections. At this point in time the GOP has lost all chance of winning a national election in 2016 and maybe longer. Realistically they are becoming a party very similar to that of the Populist Party from the end of the 19th century. They will have some regional power, but until they resolve their internal divisions they will be a party that loses power on a national scale.
