Below is the statement of the League of the South on racism. They disavow being a racialist organization. From their own statements they advocate a theocracy of some sort. I will post the research of the SPLC as well.

League of the South Statement on “Racism”
LS Board of Directors
...

We believe that Christianity and social order require that all people, regardless of race, must be equal before the law. We do not believe that the law should be used to persecute, oppress, or favour any race or class.

We believe that the only harmony possible between the races, as between all natural differences among human beings, begins in submitting to Jesus Christ’s commandment to “love our neighbours as ourselves.” That is the world we envision and work for.

We believe that the politics of race—baiting whites against blacks and blacks against white has been profitable for politicians but catastrophic for the South and Southerners.

We believe that all Southerners - black and white - want and need the same things: a safe country for their families, liberty, and the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

We believe that the last thing the South’s enemies want is to see black and white Southerners sitting down together to determine their common destiny and work for authentic harmony, a just social and economic order, and an independent South. We can’t foretell precisely what that order will look like, but certainly it will not make room for diversity police and political correctness. Rather, we hope it will bring the greatest freedom for the greatest number of all races, and good will among them all.

Instead, Hill has concentrated his fire on the minorities he is certain are destroying America.

Hill is no aberration in the LOS, a group that has grown to include 9,000 people organized into 96 chapters in 20 states. Despite the group’s claims that it will brook no racists, the League is rife with white supremacists and racist ideology.

One key LOS figure and old Hill colleague, a man who is the former head of the LOS chapter in Tuscaloosa (Ala.) County where the League got its start, was even blunter than his leader in his own AlaReb posting about black-on-white crime.

“You see the day is coming when we will NEED a new type of Klan,” G. David Cooksey wrote after the Central Park incidents in June. “Yes I said Klan!! If push comes to shove I’m for it! ... Time has come to stop this crap now!

“Or would you all like to see your daughters raped???”

Academics Set the Tone
The League of the South, first known as the Southern League, was founded in 1994 by Hill and a group of 40 other people. At first, the LOS appeared to be concerned primarily with questions of Southern culture, threatening to push for secession, at least rhetorically, as a final resort if what were seen as the rights and dignity of the South were not respected.

It keyed in on the notion that Southerners alone among U.S. population groups were commonly denigrated by the “politically correct” dominant culture, seen as emanating from the Yankee North.

And it pushed the idea of the South as fundamentally Christian, calling, in effect, for imposition of a theocracy — a government in which prayers and other religious observances would be common, and mandatory, in public life.

Obviously, I don’t think Palin had good judgment in choosing to speak to that group. I wonder what she really thinks about race relations.

“Max Blumenthal of The Nation reports last week, while the media focused almost obsessively on the DNC’s spectacle in Denver, the country’s most influential conservatives met quietly at a hotel in downtown Minneapolis to get to know Sarah Palin. The assembled were members of the Council for National Policy, an ultra-secretive cabal that networks wealthy right-wing donors together with top conservative operatives to plan long-term movement strategy.”

All truth diggers who value democracy and the First Amendment should sign the “Amy Goodman Arrested - Stand up for Democracy!” petition at http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/amy-goodman-arrested—-stand-up-for-democracy.

FrostedFlakes:  You may well be right that Palin may drop out, but do you recall what happened to George McGovern was forced to drop his first VP choice, Thomas Eagleton when evidence of psychological troubles surfaced.  McGovern replaced Eagelton with Sargent Shriver and then went on to lose every state except MA (he also won in DC) to Richard Nixon.

I hope he puts Lieberman on. After he kicks Palin off the ticket and his reputation for mature judgment has been shredded forever, all he needs is a little “jomentum” to fire up his ticket. The landslide will go from 60-40 to 65-35.

Ron Paul had something interesting to say about Palin. If only one of the major candidates promised to dismantle the Patriot Act, and withdraw our troops from Eurasia I would vote for him. Oh well.

It’s becoming more and more obvious that Palin was not properly vetted.

_________________________________________________

Precisely!  That’s because it is probable that McCain had actually picked Pawlenty.  Then he and his Karl Rove acolytes were slammed by Obama’s brilliant oration which the ultra-conservative Pat Buchanan described as the best acceptance speech he had heard in his life time.  Obama picked up every one of the Swift Boat canards that the Rove acolytes had mustered in their deceptive, multi-million dollar ads and slammed them back into McCain’s puffy face.

What we have seen from the likes of George W. Bush, Dick Cheney & John McCain is a group of bullies.  They simply don’t know how to deal with a Democrat who actually hits back.

Realizing they would not be able to Swift Boat their way through the election, the McCain camp panicked.  McCain, like most Republican men, with our without their Stepford wives in tow, habitually underestimates the intelligence of American women—who make up 60% of the current enrollment in our colleges and universities—women who vote not based not on the gender of a candidate but on the substance of their policies and character.

The selection of Palin was the product of a panicked stupidity.

It is said that the first indicator of the judgment a President will apply in office is their choice for a VP.  What does it say about John McCain’s judgment under pressure that he would select an un-vetted, unqualified neophyte ideologue who denies the science of global warming on nothing more than her gender?

If McCain is this panicked simply by a Democrat’s acceptance speech, I shutter to think what he would do as President in a real crisis.  What an horrific mistake it would be to allow such a man to have his meaty fingers near the nuclear trigger.

This election is serious business, and Hillary Clinton was right.  “No how.  No way.  No McCain!”

Wow, hahahaha, this is too good. A gift from the Gods to the Democratic party! Absolutely ridiculous! Anti-choice, anti-America, anti-all. She’s a mountain of swill and posturing lunacy!

It really looks like the wheels are coming off the “Straight Talk Express”.  Whether McCain drops Palin or not, his claim to be a person of mature judgment is blasted to smithereens!

Looks like a 60-40 Obama landslide to me!

Oh dear, and McCain said she was his soulmate.

If the Republicans can ever find the courage to have their convention maybe they will dump McCain after the VP fiasco.

...you vett your VP choice by phone.

So what!  This is just more crap to distract us; Palin will probably not make it so get on with the important stuff.

Secession might now be a bad idea. Georgia’s attempt at secession was not so successful of course, but perhaps Georgians could give it a second try. This time it would be for a far nobler cause- a peaceful, non-imperialist government in Atlanta instead of that nasty one in DC.
