You're listening to the Liberty News Radio Network, and this is the Political Cesspool.
The Political Cesspool, going across the South and worldwide, as the South's foremost populist conservative radio program.
And here to guide you through the murky waters of the political cesspool is your host, James Edwards.
Wanted to start the hour with it one more time.
And we even gave you the history behind the lyrics of those songs last week when we kicked off Confederate History Month 2016.
We posted it to the website last Sunday.
That is, of course, the night they drove all Dixie down.
We actually put the whole song spread out over four segments last week.
I think it's a beautiful song.
Check out the blog entry dedicated to it, which was posted last Sunday at thepoliticalcesspool.org.
But we're getting back into Confederate History Month this hour.
We celebrate it every April.
We're the only show in the world that does it.
And you don't have to be a southerner to enjoy the history that we bring to you.
I get emails from people around the country and around the world talking about how much not only do they love Confederate History Month, but that they look forward to it every year.
Because, you know, I think we did an incredible job last week.
If I do say so myself, we spent an hour and a half on Confederate History Month last week, breaking it down at the halfway point of the second hour, then all throughout the third, breaking down why we celebrate Confederate history and why the war was fought.
And it included clips from the movie Gods and Generals.
And I think it's just a great primer.
If you missed the last hour and a half of last week's show and you're at all interested in Confederate history, you got to listen to it, folks.
It was pretty much close to perfect.
We talked a lot about Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson, two of the greatest Christian soldiers ever to trod this earth last week.
And they are two, of course, the more prominent names in Confederate history.
But one thing we like to do during this month as well is profile people who are lesser known.
In fact, some people whose names were not even known at all.
I love this story that I'm about to read to you.
We don't know this woman's name, but we call her affectionately the Southern Boudica.
And you know who Boudica was, right?
She was the Celtic warrior princess, I guess you would say.
Romans came in to that part of Northern Europe and raped her daughters and flogged her, and then she led a rebellion that dispelled the Romans for a brief time.
I think she was British, wasn't she?
Yeah, she was British.
Well, Celtic-British, I mean, it's...
Well, no, but you said Northern Europe.
I was thinking she was specifically British.
I don't know if she was Anglo-Saxon or whether she was Celtic, but whatever she was, she was.
I think she was Celtic.
But whatever it was, what she was was a person that stood up for her race and her people against overwhelming odds against the strongest culture and nation in the world at the time and prevailed.
And that's what this woman did, a southern woman.
Listen to this.
This is real history, folks.
Buckle.
This is what makes the political session so special.
So we dug through, Winston Smith found this colonel of history on June 3rd, 1864.
Robert Audrey of Company B, 11th, 111th, rather, Illinois Infantry.
This was a Union soldier.
He mailed a letter to his father describing some recent action that he's seen, that he had seen.
Listen to this.
Dear father, I take pen in hand to let you know that I am well.
We are camped near Georgia where we found the enemy in force on the 26th.
The 111th was in the front line of the breastworks, and we drew hot fire from the Rebs until about 4 o'clock when the enemy viciously charged our works.
We poured hot fire into their ranks, and several times their lines broke, but they rallied again and again and came on with guns blazing and flags waving.
They fought like demons and we cut them down like dogs.
Many dead and dying secession fell prisoner.
One she-devil, talking about a Confederate woman, shot her way to our breastworks with two large revolvers, dealing death to all in her path.
She was shot several times with no apparent effect.
When she ran out of ammunition, she pulled out the largest pig sticker I ever seen.
It must have been 18 inches in the blade.
When the corporal tried to shoot her, she kicked him in the face, smashing it quite severely.
Then she stabbed three boys and was about to decapitate a fourth when the lieutenant killed her.
Without a doubt, this gal inflicted more damage to our line than any other reb.
If Bobby Lee were to fill the brigade of such women, I think the Union prospects would be very gloomy indeed, for it would be impossible for us to equal her ferocity and pluck.
Your devoted son, Robert Audrey, 111th Illinois Regimental Volunteers.
Keith, that's my kind of woman.
I married one just like her.
Well, let me tell you, I was privileged last night to attend an event at the pilgrimage, the annual pilgrimage in Holly Springs, Mississippi, which is a charming Anabelling Bellum town.
It was one of the few in Mississippi that was not burned by the Federals.
And as a result, it has all the old mansions up there.
Of course, it's a vastly majority black town now, but nonetheless, those southern whites, the descendants of Confederates, are holding forth down there.
And they had a Confederate evening at one of these mansions where they had reenactors dressed up as General Grant on the Union side, General Beauregard and General Van Dorn on the Confederate side giving a presentation.
And it was a wonderful event.
And it's the type of thing that happens in the South.
It's not widely publicized by the national media anymore.
It's not like in 1957 when Hollywood made a delightful movie called Tammy and the Bachelor starring Debbie Reynolds and Leslie Nielsen in the lead roles that was focused entirely on the Rebel Ball and the Natchez Mississippi Pilgrimage, which is another annual pilgrimage in the spring of the year down here in Mississippi.
They still pay appropriate homage to their Confederate ancestors.
And let me tell you, it was wonderful to be there.
The sense of fellowship, the sense of common ancestry and pride in your heritage was unparalleled.
And let me tell you, anyone who gets a chance to go down to one of these pilgrimages in Mississippi, be it Natchez, Holly Springs, Vicksburg, or wherever, take the opportunity and see what the old South was really all about and not what the liars in the mainstream academic circles and in the mainstream media would have you believe.
When we come back, ladies and gentlemen, just to go back very quickly, love that story.
That is just an obscure letter from a Union soldier to his father, and then it has that incredible piece of history in it, this unnamed, unknown woman fighting.
Well, the women were just as much into things.
There was not this division that you see in households.
Now, obviously, she wasn't a regular soldier.
The South wasn't perverted, but they were in total support of the cause.
Sure.
And it is, you know, there are untold stories like this of heroic women.
There was this one woman that led forest troops.
through a swampy creek down there in Mississippi that they were celebrating last night at this event I was telling you about.
I wish I could recall her name, James.
There's so many forgotten heroes that fought for the good guys in that war.
Good guys don't always win, but you know, it's all part of God's plan and his coming, not ours.
And what's meant to be is part of his divine providence.
We accept that.
But God knows we love our heroes.
And you don't have to win to be a hero.
When we come back, I'm going to read with you a letter that'll melt you unless you made that episode.
Stay tuned.
Scott Bradley here.
Most Americans are painfully aware that the nation is on the wrong track and in dire straits.
Unfortunately, most political pundits only nibble around the edges when they claim to address the issues.
Even worse, many of the so-called solutions are simply rewarmed servings of what got us into the mess we currently face.
And the politicians think we're so gullible and naive that we'll buy their lies that they have reformed and now understand where they led us astray.
Unfortunately, the truth of the matter is that they simply wish to continue to hold power.
The solution to America's challenges is found in returning to the timeless principles found in the United States Constitution.
My book and lecture series will reawaken in Americans an understanding and love of the principles which made this nation the freest, most prosperous, happiest, and most respected nation on earth.

And now, back to tonight's show.
That's our national anthem.
People try to slur us by claiming we're neo-Confederates as if that's something to be ashamed of.
But the fact of the matter is, we're not neo-Confederates.
We're the real thing.
And we honor the people who came before us, people in our family who fought for a cause, a righteous cause.
With regards to letters, we read that letter that the Union soldier had written about who we affectionately refer to as the Southern Boudica.
But I'm going to post this letter to the website next week at thepolitical Cesspool.org.
And if you're not going there every day, folks, you're cheating yourself.
We have broken our all-time traffic records 11 times in the past 30 days.
A lot of people are going to thepoliticalasspool.org, and it's coinciding beautifully with Confederate History Month.
This letter that I'm about to read to you, though, which will be posted to the website next week, is going to bring into sharp focus just how far we've fallen since the 1930s.
Obviously, this was well past the end of the war, but it's a letter dated December 20th, 1933, from the comptroller of the state of Florida that accompanied a pension check sent to the great-grandmother of one of our listeners.
Okay?
She was the widow of a Confederate veteran and she was getting his pension check.
And in addition to the pension check, the comptroller of the state of Florida sent along this letter.
Listen to this if you listen to anything tonight.
Mrs. Sarah McGahey of Tampa, Florida.
This is what the comptroller writes.
Dear friend, I consider it quite fortunate on my part in being selected as the official charged with the responsibility of mailing you the enclosed pension check.
It's a rare privilege and a pleasure to forward you this token of appreciation of the great state of Florida.
Personally, I feel the debt of gratitude owing you by the Commonwealth of this state cannot be estimated in material wealth and therefore cannot be composed by mere payment of money.
It's a liability that cannot be expressed in dollars but can be enshrined in the sacred archives of tradition.
And by teaching the succeeding generations that by your actions, experience, and devotion to a sacred principle, you have proved that God does not force us into deep water to drown us, but to cleanse us.
And that adversity is the trial of principle without which one hardly knows whether or not he is honest.
Unless, like those who fought for the lost cause, he is sorely tried, smelted, polished, and glorified in the furnace of tribulation.
If we remain true to our ideals and steadfast to our principles, as exemplified by those who fought under the stars and bars, we are reminded that honor is likened to certain herbs and flowers that send forth their most delightful odors only after they have been crushed and broken.
Therefore, we should all, all of us, profit from the experience and example of you brave souls who have conquered discouragement and despair and have, phoenix-like, risen from the dead ashes of destitution and want to the heights of honor, peace, and tranquility.
May that one, in whose honor we observe Christmas, comfort and keep you.
Very sincerely, J.M. Lee, Comptroller, State of Florida.
Keith, that was, again, a letter that went out with a pension check to the widow of a Confederate veteran.
That kind of eloquent and beautiful language praising the ideals of the Confederacy are words that would never pass the lips of a state official or a craven politician today, and the difference in attitudes of public officials between then and now is staggering and for the worst.
But that is probably, that could be the most beautiful letter I've ever read in my life.
Well, I can tell you that that spirit lives on.
I went to the event that I described earlier.
I remember now it was called Juleps and Generals, and they served you mint juleps at this antebellum home where they had this presentation.
And I can tell you that that spirit lives on in the hearts of many Southerners.
And Southerners understand what the war was really all about.
It was not about slavery.
It was about economic domination and political domination that had grown to be intolerable.
And we'll explain that later in Confederate History Month, exactly what the causes of the war were and what they weren't.
And it will also profile what the South was before the war and what it became after the war and what the North did.
And we'll also even consider the possibility of what would have happened if the South had won the Civil War.
What would the history of the two areas have been?
What would their subsequent history have been if the South had succeeded in secession?
Well, we'll get to all of that, James, but let us say that we need to be proud of our Confederate heritage.
We don't need to let anyone shame us out of it.
I want to ask you this, Keith.
For the benefit of those who don't have the Confederate blood coursing through their veins as we do, for the benefit of those who weren't born in the South, what should they draw from what we're doing here this month on the political cesspool?
Well, it's a time to set things straight.
It's a time to discuss what the real causes of the war were.
And we need to understand that we're at a similar moment in history now.
We are, if Donald Trump decides to go third party and Bernie Sanders tries to go third party or decides to go third party because both of them are being royally screwed by the party regulars in the Republican and the Democratic Party, that they would be, you know, extremely justified in going the third party route.
And if they do, it's going to be a replay of the presidential election of 1860, in which people basically decided that the two choices being served up by the national parties were not enough and didn't embody the full spectrum of opinion.
So you had four.
You not only had Abraham Lincoln, the Republican, and Stephen Douglas, the Democrat, you had John Bell and John Breckinridge running as well, and they were major candidates that pulled major votes.
Abraham Lincoln won that election with, I believe it was 39% of the vote.
You know, we talked last week, Keith, about John Breckenwich, who was the former Vice President of the United States.
He left being the Vice President of the United States so he could serve in the Confederate Army.
He commanded cadets from the Virginia Military Institute at the Battle of Newmarket.
They didn't even have shoes, and they won the day against seasoned.
Well, you know, it was obvious that principal trumped power back then.
Now, in today's Republican and Democratic Party and in American government generally, it's just the opposite.
Power Trump's principle.
Back then, Robert E. Lee would turn down a commission to be the commander-in-chief, basically, of all American forces.
Of course, the president would be the official commander-in-chief, and he was going to be the one in charge of all the Union armies in the Civil War.
But he turned it down to become the head of the Army of the state of Virginia, Northern Virginia, even at that, just part of the state of Virginia, because of his allegiance to principal.
And to his family.
And to his family, and to his shirts and to his ancestry.
See, we need to, what we've lost more than anything else since the days of the Confederacy and the Civil War is respect for our ancestors.
Our ancestors don't count now in the modern reckoning of things.
Our ancestors were racist.
Our ancestors were bigots.
Our ancestors were misogynists.
They were yada, everything bad because they were not the mentally ill people that are called liberals today.
Back then, they actually considered what would my grandfather and great grandfather think of me if I did this.
When we come back, when we come back, I'm going to tell you about Confederate scout D.S. Job, DeWitt Smith Job.
Stay tuned.
Informing citizens.
Pursuing liberty.

Well, folks,
I know that song.
I mean, I know it's Dixie, but that's the, I believe that's the South Carolina String Band.
And that is one of my favorite all-time versions of Dixie.
That can be found on YouTube.
We'll post that to the website, too.
Great selection by our producer tonight.
I actually just wanted to forego whatever commentary Keith and I might have this segment and just keep listening to the song.
What a beautiful song.
Very few songs can stir the soul like Dixie.
And as our celebration of Confederate History Month is going to continue throughout the month of April, you're going to hear us talk about some of the great legends of the Confederacy, certainly people like Nathan Bedford Forrest, a Tennessean.
Stories of heroism that perhaps you've never heard of before.
But we're also going to tell you about the crew of the H.L. Hundley, the Confederate submarine that became the first to ever sink a ship in naval warfare.
You know, Confederates are supposed to be stupid.
Southerners are supposed to be slow and backwards.
Well, they created the first submarine to ever sink an enemy ship in the history of naval warfare.
In other words, the first functional submarine.
Right.
And, you know, the thing about that was the first couple of crews of the Hunley died in training exercises.
Think of how much courage it would take for you to get in a submarine in which the first two crews died during training and get in there and go out and go to battle.
And that's what the crew of the Hunley did.
It's named after Horace Hundley, who was one of the people who manned, he created the submarine.
He was one of the people who died in it in one of the training exercises.
Well, that submarine was found in Charleston Harbor a few years back, and they pulled it up.
It sunk after it destroyed the Housatanic in Charleston Harbor.
They pulled it up.
They finally found it in the early 2000s.
They pulled it up, and in 2004, the crew of the Hunley were given a military burial.
I was in Charleston, South Carolina for that funeral when the crew of the Hunley was finally laid to rest.
Oh, folks.
Oh, man.
Tens of thousands of people lining the battery there in Charleston, South Carolina.
This procession, this beautiful procession, and then all of the people there got to walk past the graves.
I laid cedar on a twig of cedar on the casket of Lieutenant George Dixon, who commanded the Hunley.
And I was there when the caskets were taken down the main road there, and then everybody started cheering.
And you just started sobbing.
I mean, you just couldn't contain the emotion to be at the last Confederate funeral.
I was there in 2004 in Charleston, South Carolina, one of the highlights of my life.
We're going to talk about that.
We're going to talk about Tennessee Governor Isham Harris, who while still governor fought alongside his countrymen in battle at the Battle of Shiloh.
Can you imagine Keith the Setting governor now going and getting on the front lines and fighting for his people?
Well, you can't even get Nathan the Real Deal deal of Georgia to fight politically, much less in warfare.
If you've never heard these incredible true stories before, I encourage you to research them and tune into us every Saturday night in April.
Confederate history is something that should be honored and celebrated year-round, not just this month, but we do our part.
If we're going to have Black History Month, we're going to have Confederate History Month.
Well, that's right.
And we may put the last show of this month, all three hours, on Confederate history, because you can only scratch the surface.
But right now, I want to tell you the story of D.S. Job.
DeWitt Smith Job was a Confederate scout whose sacrifice was one of amazing courage.
D.S. Job enlisted in 1861 and became part of Company B of the 20th Tennessee Regiment commanded by Colonel Job Battle and his cousin Thomas B. Smith.
Job was wounded and captured at the Battle of Fishing Creek and fought at Stones River.
He was handpicked as a scout about the time Major General Braxton Bragg began his retreat out of Middle Tennessee and into Georgia.
As a scout, D.S. Job did escape the doldrums of routine military life, but his new role with the Army of Tennessee was far more dangerous.
Many members of these scouts were shot, killed, or imprisoned.
And each of the scouts knew that that was something that was a likely outcome of their involvement.
In 1864, Job was behind Union lines near College Grove.
On Monday, August 29th, Job was hiding in a cornfield and eating breakfast at the home of Confederate sympathizers.
And he had an important message hidden on his person.
With Yankee patrols in the area, the Confederate was hiding during the day and traveling only at night.
Unfortunately, he was spotted by a patrol of the 115th Ohio Regiment of the Union Army.
Seeing that he was about to be captured, D.S. Job tore up his correspondence and began to chew and swallow it.
Angered by the near miss, the Union patrol first threatened Job and then began to torture him in an effort to get the scout to divulge the content of the dispatch.
The Union officers hanged him from a bridle rein and then pistol whipped him, knocking out his teeth.
Bound and disarmed, helpless and bleeding, D.S. Job still revealed nothing.
They were dealing with a man in gray who held the welfare of the Confederacy above his own life.
According to eyewitness reports, the torture went on.
The Union soldiers were yelling so loudly that they could be heard by distant residents in the farmhouses.
They gouged out Job's eyes and then they cut his tongue out.
Now, how much courage did that take?
The Union patrol, after gouging out his eyes and cutting out his tongue, finished him off by dragging him to death behind his own galloping horse.
Once again, Keith, we can compare and contrast the nobility of the Confederate soldier to the savage nature of the Union Army.
D.S. Job was hanged, pistol-whipped, had his eyes gouged out and tongue cut off before finally being dragged to death by a horse, but he never gave up his fellow soldiers, choosing rather to die that painful death than betray his countrymen.
How many of today's business and political heavyweights would do the same, and what happened to the nation that produced men like that?
Well, let me tell you, that's an individual, a personal example.
There's a greater example in terms of the behavior of the two armies.
The Confederate Army only burned to the ground one Union city or town in the entire Civil War, Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, was burnt down to protest Sherman's March to the Sea in which numerous towns were burnt down.
All growing crops were burnt down.
Living livestock was killed.
They were trying to starve out and punish the people.
Women were raped.
Men were beaten to death like D.S. Job.
Meanwhile, 43 towns in the state of Mississippi alone were burned down by federal troops.
I guess all this proves the truth of Leo DeRosher's observation, nice guys finish last.
But the South, under leaders like General Robert E. Lee, fought a gentlemanly war in which they only engaged in combat against troops of the enemy forces.
The Union made war not only upon the troops, but upon the civilian population.
Willard Wertz, who was the commandant of the notorious, supposedly notorious Andersonville prison in Georgia, who was the first war criminal executed for his supposed crimes by the United States by the supposed mistreatment of prisoners at Andersonville, actually tried to parole all the prisoners in his charge, not once but twice, to the Union provincial governor of Florida.
But the Florida governor refused to take these prisoners because they wanted the South to be burdened with their care and to supposedly they imagined this would hasten the end of the war.
But they basically, out of wanton cruelty, refused to relieve the suffering of these prisoners.
And the prisoners, by the way, were getting the same rations as Wertz's guards and his Confederate soldiers under his command.
And this shows you the dishonesty with which the press back then and through today reports upon what happened in the Civil War.
Willard Wurtz was a Swiss immigrant.
He was not a cruel man.
He did everything he could to alleviate the suffering of both his own troops and the prisoners, but he was executed by vengeful radical Republicans of the day because they had won and they were going to get their last pound of flesh out of the Confederates.
Keep these things in mind when you hear all the stories about the mistreatment of slaves and whatnot.
The real mistreaters in the Civil War were the Union troops from President Lincoln on down.
And folks, what an honor it is to bring you the stories of forgotten heroes like the Southern Boudica and D.S. Job.
We'll have much more in the next segment and throughout the remainder of April here at the Political Cess Pool.

That is not the best audio recording we could have played tonight of Dixie, but it is a very special audio recording.
Keith, tell them what recording that actually was.
Well, that's the Ole Miss band playing Dixie.
Of course, that's just the very beginning intro.
That was actually the last time they ever, the last time they ever were allowed to play it.
Well, see, I've heard it many, many times.
In fact, one of the reasons I went to Ole Miss was I was attracted by the fact that they waved the rebel flag at football games and basketball games.
They played Dixie, and they basically gave honor and reverence to their Confederate past.
And James is going to tell you something about the Confederate past of the University of Mississippi, possibly right now.
Well, I will.
And, you know, we've covered this before in previous episodes, but for the benefit of those who are tuning in tonight, perhaps for the first time, the University of Mississippi, also known as Ole Miss, was founded by people who fought for the South.
I mean, quite literally.
In fact, when the onset of Lincoln's war began, the entire student body at that time of the University of Mississippi, Ole Miss, enlisted in the Confederate Army.
They formed their own regiment called the University Grays.
They suffered a listen to this, folks, 100% casualty rate.
Everybody that was enlisted at Ole Miss at the onset of the war between the states served in the Confederate Army.
Every single one of them died.
And now the administration of that university urinates on their memory, and that will not stand.
But up until recently, you know, everybody there obviously was very much in favor of that.
And I'm sure the student body itself still is.
But again, there's always a differential between the headtable and the ruling elite.
Well, it's just exactly like it is with the Southern Baptist Convention.
The people in the pews are good, stout conservatives on all issues, particularly cultural issues.
But the people at denominational headquarters, not only in the Southern Baptist denomination, but in the Roman Catholic Church, the Episcopal Church, the United Methodist Church, the Presbyterian Church, you name it, they're all good card-carrying liberals.
Why?
Because they're paid to do it.
Russell Moore, the deputy head of the Southern Baptist Convention, who has made a lot of headlines lately by denouncing Trump and by denouncing people that would support Trump and presume to call themselves Christians, which he thinks is a great tragedy, is actually on the payroll of an organization that is financed by George Soros, who, among other things, is an atheist.
Well, to be clear, I think he sits on the board or at least did of an organization that is funded by Soros.
Whether or not he himself receives money from Soros is not clear.
Well, he obviously is, you know, if he's not.
But you would never look at him and confuse him for being a man.
Let's just be clear about that, too.
Well, let's just say this.
He obviously is getting marching orders from somebody other than God by making these type of pronouncements.
You can't condemn what God approves and you can't approve what God condemns.
And nowhere, he is always speaking out against supposed racists in the Southern Baptist denomination.
And when asked about this, I'm sure he would say what most people in the mainstream or in religious circles say, which is that slavery is a crime in the Bible.
Really?
What does the Bible say about slavery?
It said, slaves obey your masters, masters be kind to your slaves.
On the other hand, when it comes to homosexuality, there's a lot of hemming and hawing from denominational headquarters.
They decide, like the Pope did recently, that we need to tone down any criticism of homosexuals.
But what does the Bible say about them?
It says, a man should not lie with another man as with a woman, or a woman with another woman as with a man.
It is an abomination in my eyes, saith the Lord.
Well, get back to the word of God.
This is what the Southern Baptists have prided themselves in doing for time immemoriam.
They're supposedly a Bible-founded church.
Well, if you're going to be a Bible-founded church, you can't rewrite the Bible every 10 years, and you can't pretend that things are in the Bible that are not in the Bible, and you can't pretend that things are not in the Bible, which are in the Bible, James.
Well, that's an excellent analysis, Keith, and I don't want to depart too much from the focus on the Confederacy.
But Eddie Miller, this is one of his pet issues, the bombardier, Dr. Pappy, as we call him.
You know, he's a Southern Baptist.
He goes to a Southern Baptist church here in Memphis.
And as he said, you know, it just shows how impotent these people are.
The people who go to the Southern Baptist churches obviously overwhelmingly voted for Trump.
If you're a Christian and you're in the South, you're probably a Southern Baptist.
Trump carried the South handily, and he also carried the evangelical vote of the South equally handily.
And Eddie, in this email to me with him not being in tonight, wrote, it's not Trump's supporters and the political cesspool family that's out of touch with the truth, shacking up in an incestuous relationship with the anti-Christian cabal of George Soros, the New York Times, and the Washington Post.
It's the Southern Baptist Convention who has gone to bed with the worst of the worst of the anti-Christian globalist cabal.
It's joined forces with the enemies of the Christian church in an all-out attack on its own flock.
As anyone at a glance can see, what the SBC is doing is no different than what we talked about in the second hour with mainstream conservatives, crammed full of hot air and lies, totally lacking in facts, except when they quote us directly from something we say, which is quite rare.
Eddie said he's no longer angry with the SBC cucks.
He's laughing at them.
And that's really the only thing you can do.
Well, you know, just it makes you yearn for the days of the early 80s.
R.L. Dabney.
R.L. Dabney.
In their opinion, R.L. Dabney is burning in hell right now.
Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Leary in hell.
Not only that, I guess Adrian Rogers is, because he wouldn't countenance an interracial marriage in his church back in the furthermore.
He became elected the moderator of the Southern Baptist Convention in the early 80s.
He was the, I guess you would say colloquially, the Pope of the Southern Baptists back then.
He was the head man.
Right here in Memphis, I believe.
He was the pastor of the largest Southern Baptist congregation in the entire denomination, the Southern Baptist denomination.
And what did he do when he became the moderator?
He proceeded to drive all the moderates and liberals out of Southern Baptist seminaries and cleanse them and turn the thing towards conservatives.
And of course, the reason we're even bringing this up in Confederate History Month is that the Southern Baptists split over issues relevant to the Confederacy during that time period.
But I want to remind you of this.
Go to the website thepolitical cesspool.org.
I got pictures there with two great Christian soldiers, the graves of Robert E. and Stonewall Jackson.
Check it out.
Take some time to reflect upon the sacrifices made of two of the greatest Americans to ever live.
That's on the website last week, thepolitical cesspool.org, my recent trip last fall to Lexington, Virginia, where they're both buried.
And then, you know, as we mentioned last week, and we really highlighted this film last week, anyone wishing to celebrate Confederate History Month should really purchase the 2003 movie Gods and Generals, among my all-time favorites, and it portrays the South in a very fair and objective light.
In 2011, this is a little bit of political accessible history.
An executive at Warner Brothers contacted us.
You know, here we are.
This is Warner Brothers contacting us, asking if they could partner with the Political Cesspool in order to promote the re-release of Gods and Generals.
This was in commemoration of the 150th anniversary of Lincoln's war.
Now, I would, of course, normally not choose not to associate myself and my good name and work with the degenerates in Hollywood.
But in this case, I was happy to help get the word out about this particular film.
Gods and Generals stands alone among major motion pictures because it favorably depicts the Confederacy and rightly casts people like Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson as heroes.
It's simply the best movie ever made about the war between the states.
It's exciting, briskly paced, and the characterizations, especially of Stonewall Jackson, are just so moving.
We put four clips of that movie up on the website this week as well.
Everyone's got to check it out at thepoliticalaccessible.org.
In a matter of minutes, these clips really capture exactly why my ancestors and Keith's ancestors and Eddie's ancestors were both right and justified in fighting for their independence.
This was the second American Revolution.
We lost it that time, though.
Well, let me say this.
I'm glad you brought up Hollywood because this week, the New York Times ran an article with this title, if you can believe it, The Unbearable Whiteness of Baseball.
If that doesn't show you that there's a double standard and that white people are being persecuted and are held up to ridicule by the mainstream media, then nothing else shows you.
Can you imagine we're waiting for the blackness, the oppressive blackness of basketball?
Yeah, well, can you imagine an article about the unbearable blackness of SEC football or the unbearable Jewishness of Hollywood?
I got a question for you, though, Keith.
This comes in from a listener.
We don't have time.
Dear James, I would like to have you recommend a reliable history from the southern perspective of the Civil War.
Having grown up in the North, I dare say I have no clue about your side of the history.
I enjoy your coverage of this.
I'm not a racist or a supremacist, but I strongly oppose tyranny, reverse discrimination, etc.
A book that he can get the real history on the Confederacy: The Uncivil War by Mike Scrudge.
It's like on pulp paper.
It costs about $7.95.
You can get it on the internet.
It sets all the things up, all the totems up, and knocks them down.
For Keith Alexander, Ned of the Bombardier Miller and the rest of our staff and crew, Scoop Stanton, I am James Edwards.
We'll see you next week when Confederate History Month continues exclusively on the Political Cessible.
