Ron Paul also follows a school of economics designed to appeal to self-important morons who don't really know what they are talking about.

They already print up tolerance programs that are really great, but a lot of school districts won't use them. Apparently It's up to you to be the voice of reason in that enclave of rocket scientists you live in. There's non religious reasons for supporting Israel, so don't hit 'em there. Ask why we fought WWII and did we win or not. @ John Haney, I see the Tea Party movement as funded and organized by corporate plutocrats using fear of gays and the undocumented to congeal the populist aspect of the movement. They are the very ones responsible for the economic situation, and the tea party patriots should be on the side of oppressed people everywhere and not helping the oppressors.. @Chas Knause, what would you have the SPLC do?

There is a real risk of the dollar losing reserve status, and if other countries dump the bonds they hold, and change it into cash, we have a strong chance to have a Weimar or Zimbabwe style hyperinflation in this country. The constitutional struggle between large centralized government and small local government with enumerated powers has begun afresh. The struggle between personal liberty and government supported corporatism is at the core of the populist movements of Goldwater, Reagan, the Tea Party, Ron Paul's campaign, and believe it or not, the League of the South. The League will seem prescient within a few years. Best of luck to you all. If you bother to look, we are in some sort of economic endgame here and many other countries around the world.

Rather it has fought to prop up dictators, or to control territory in various geopolitical games with other super-powers.

We could finally become a modern, secular state in the comity of nations, with a Congress that doesn't see as its main or only goal the obstruction of all progressive legislation. The moderate center would become a true center, rather than a far-right position as it is now. However, I don't believe it's the South as a whole -- despite the hateful rhetoric of these groups, and Republican politicians trying to gain the support of the basest of their base. It's just groups like these. I don't believe they speak for the all of the South.

It is a very sad situation and I am most outraged at the park owner who is Jewish and no doubt a fanatical supporter of Israel who has allowed and even encouraged this very hatefilled and bigoted environment here. I think the one things that you conveniently fail to recognize is that all these far right "christian" extremist groups are staunch and fanatical supporters of Zionism and the state of Israel. There is a marriage of convenience between these "christian" Zionist groups and the wealthy real estate investors who own and control whole communities here in the South. Why don't you get real for a change and talk about that. You and your organization are all talk and zero action, i.e. just another fund raising vehicle for Morris Dees. I don't really for a second think that you are really serious about doing anything about this very ominous and hate filled environment here in the South. I do however, appreciate and support you intelligence gathering effort. I need very much to keep up with your latest reports. I have heard that your organization does consulting work for the FBI on the matter of these organized hate groups. I hope that that is indeed correct. I would be happy to assist that effort in any way that I can as I think that this is a very, very serious matter where many lives could be effected. The name of the over 55 community in Ormond Beach is Life Village, 500 So. Nova Rd. 32174. The owner's name is Steven Unitan. Maybe he is just not aware of how bad the situation has gotten here or probably just doesn't care. This is a common problem here in the South today; however, I think that my analysis of the matter is correct. I suspect, however, that maybe the owner himself may feel intimidated by these far right confederate extremists.

I’m a mongrel – like almost ALL Americans, despite claims to the contrary – and in my 9 years in the military, I’ve also seen patriots of all races, religions, sexual orientaitions and political parties fight and die for America.

I wonder if it’s any coincidence that the acronym for the League Of the South is the same as the first half of “losers”.

The enemy - Americans! Are those their agents, in the House of Representatives, in the Obstructionist wing of the Senate, in the Tea Party, at Fox, and now controlling the Republican Party itself, trying to pull the plug on the nation, so the South can rise again? Folks, we got a sedition problem! What LOSers! The enemy – Americans!

I fought in a war too, and I'm not about to fight in another one. Incidentally, I saw the black man, the Hispanic man, and the Oriental man, bleed and die for this country.

Well, it didn't work then and I doubt it is working now.
