South Carolina Supports Insurgents

It's true. South Carolina is an ardent supporter of the insurgency against US troops. According to George Bush logic, then, South Carolina is "against us."

Why does South Carolina hate America so much?

Among the stunningly stupid things said that day, a "descendant" of one of the CSS Hunley's crewmembers said the following: "They really were true war heroes because they forever changed the landscape of how we fight wars."

And that's what passes for thought in so many people.

Reporter Anthony Bartelme was astute enough to notice that "Few blacks were among the crowds." He's gunning for that Pulitzer!

I lived in South Carolina for a little while, and, while there is some genuine "Southern Pride" in the place, there also exists a whole lot of "Fuck the US and especially black people" sentiment, too. This entire ceremony is mostly just more neo-Confederate bullshit. You know, the kind endorsed by John Ashcroft (R-Choad).
