	What, with the Mississippi poll?<br />
	<br />
	Sorry to intrude on your Dixie-as-Gumdrop-Island fantasy with, you know, facts.<br />
	<br />
	You dropped the "past/condemned/repeat" nugget. I think ignoring the present is just as dangerous.</div></blockquote>
	<br />
	Dude...there are 2,844,658 people in the state of Mississippi.<br />
	<br />
	The "factual" poll you referenced states that 240 of them oppose interracial marriage.<br />
	<br />
	That's like 0.000118% of the states population.<br />
	<br />
	Those are "facts".<br />
	<br />
	It's this kind of bullshit that keeps our country divided.</div></blockquote>
	<br />
	Wow.  So scientific polling is bullshit?<br />
	<br />
	An awful lot of people are paying an awful lot of money for that kind of bullshit all the time.<br />
	<br />
	And the fact that the state's current Governor thinks Mississippi 1964 was just one great big tub of good times for black folks can't possibly have any significance at all.  They were probably too busy singing and dancing to care about a few murders and that pesky not-being-allowed-to-vote stuff.  Shucks.  Maybe he's right.  Maybe if he runs I'll work for his campaign as a tribute to MLK's memory.<br />
	<br />
	I'm imagining this shit.  Three recent Republican chairmen are imagining it, too.  There are no regional differences at all, ever, and it's unconscionable to even suggest that there are.  <br />
	<br />
	After all, the key to uniting this country is to pretend that it's already united.<br />
	<br />
	(And those birthers?  Never mind them, they're only a majority of Republicans, but that was just another bullshit poll and they're not racists.  They're just sticklers for paperwork.)
