I’ve read it, and I have a passing academic acquaintance with the antebellum period of the American south. SSAIW is a heavily <a href="http://hnn.us/articles/9142.html">plagiarized</a> self-published effort, larded with failed attempts to justify patriarchy and slavery. It was intended to augment Doug’s marketing outreach to Southern CREC or CREC clones who are, on the whole, a bunch of bigoted, not very bright jackasses. Not surprisingly, they lapped it up. SSAIW is a reiteration of the tired old lies they learned at their pappy’s knee. Doug’s co-author, Steve Wilkins, is an unregenerate Confederate apologist, and a founding member of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/League_of_the_South">League of the South. </a> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Your tiresome, and incidentally undisputed argument that Doug has a constitutional right to say or publish whatever crap is on his mind misses the point. Don’t you think that we all get that? Trust me, we do. Let it go Paul. You are obviously wading in waters way to deep for you.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Rose Huskey<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
