Well, the not to surprising Santorum wins in Alabama and Mississippi make me think of the words of the Reverend Josiah Strong

.......make me think of the words of the Reverend Josiah Strong: It may be easily shown, and is of no small significance, that the two great ideas of which the Anglo-Saxon is the exponent are having a fuller development in the United States than in Great Britain. There the union of Church and State tends strongly to paralyze some of the members of the body of Christ. Here there is no such influence to destroy spiritual life and power. Here, also, has been evolved the form of government consistent with the largest possible civil liberty. Furthermore, it is significant that the marked characteristics of this race are being here emphasized most. Among the most striking features of the Anglo-Saxon is his money-making powera power of increasing importance in the widening commerce of the world's future. We have seen . . . that, although England is by far the richest nation of Europe, we have already outstripped her in the race after wealth, and we have only begun the development of our vast resources.

Again, another marked characteristic of the Anglo-Saxon is what may be called an instinct or genius for colonizing. His unequaled energy, his indomitable perseverance, and his personal independence, made him a pioneer. He excels all others in pushing his way into new countries. It was those in whom this tendency was strongest that came to America, and this inherited tendency has been further developed by the westward sweep of successive generations across the continent. So noticeable has this characteristic become that English visitors remark it. Charles Dickens once said that the typical American would hesitate to enter heaven unless assured that he could go farther west.

That Josiah Strong was just plum full of Anglo-Saxon Supremacy racism way back in 1891 or so. I god fearin' man who believed in Darwin only to the point of hearing survival of the fittest and applying that in a racial way.

I don't know why Santorum winning in Alabama and Mississippi made me think of that but I do like Muscle Shoals soul music and I have even been known to crank up a Hank Williams (Sr.) tune or two!

so the rest of us are all just a bunch of indians? just a bunch of heathens? pagans? just a buncha..?
