Oh and the inner city north wasnt poverty stricken? Besides the fact that your last sentance made absolutely no damn sense, and basically neither did your entire post, I think it has no relevance here. If we wanted to celebrate the poverty of any region we would run around in high waters and rope belts you moron.

What didn't make sense? These really was nothing "glorious" about the old south. Period. And no one goes around celebrating the inner city northern states of the time period either. Tell me who does that, please. My last sentence made perfect sense. Greeks are a product of being in an institute of higher learning, therefore, history classes, at some point, had to be taken. If one pays attention in history class, all of this is made clear. There's nothing liberal or one sided about it.

Tell you what. I really am interested in what morals and ideals the "Old South" stood for. Better yet, tell me some that were actually practiced. After all, it's easy to say that one has strong morals and wonderful ideal, but practicing them is something else entirely. Because I have yet to see any historical document that says that the "Old South" was anything but a corrupt, racist dying system that, in the long term, could not sustain itself even if it had managed to succesfuly form an independent nation.
