You may have noticed a lack of posts the last few days. Southernavenger.com is in the process of moving to a different blog server (same address, no worries) and the transition is taking a little longer than expected. Thanks for your patience.
In the meantime, here’s the new blog:

SA@Takimag – The Radical Right
April 9, 2009 – 8:07 pm
It is no coincidence that some of the most interesting and promising developments on the Right today are not only coming from the grassroots, but are far removed from the Republican Party establishment. Just a few short months ago, the mainstream conservative movement huddled around figures like Mitt Romney, Sarah Palin, and later John McCain, [...]
Ron Paul: Neocons Backing Obama’s Foreign Policy
April 9, 2009 – 7:35 am
From The Raw Story:
In a little noticed editorial yesterday, Texas Republican Congressman Ron Paul fired a shot across the bow of every progressive activist in the U.S., a great many of whom are supporters of President Barack Obama:
‘Some may notice that the neo-conservatives who masterminded the policy of global interventions are not complaining about the [...]
SA Column – 911 Truths
April 8, 2009 – 5:47 am
If 9/11 “Truthers” are wacky for believing the 9/11 attacks were orchestrated by Uncle Sam, what about the conspiracy theorists who tried to convince Americans that 9/11 was orchestrated by Saddam Hussein? Consider the following from The Weekly Standard’s cover story “Case Closed” written by Stephen F. Hayes in November of 2003: “Osama Bin Laden [...]
SA@Takimag – Newt’s Foreign Policy Fantasies
April 6, 2009 – 9:14 pm
When Kim Jong-Il finally test launched a missile this week, I knew it was only a matter of time before some neocon would cry out for the resurrection of the Bush doctrine of pre-emptive war. Sure enough, reported The Raw Story on Sunday: “Only hours after North Korea launched a rocket, Newt Gingrich was on [...]
SA@Takimag – Steadfast Sanford
April 2, 2009 – 9:15 pm
In his article “Why Mark Sanford Matters” Reihan Salam writes for Forbes Magazine: “Unlike John McCain or Mitt Romney, Sanford goes far beyond criticizing earmarks. In the face of a severe recession, he has refused to accept hundreds of millions of dollars in federal aid. Recognizing that the military establishment represents an enormous slice of [...]
Why Mark Sanford Matters
April 2, 2009 – 11:11 am
Writes Reihan Salam in this excellent piece at Forbes.com:
“When Barry Goldwater ran for president in 1964, conservatism was a rigorous and demanding creed. Rather than promise tax cuts, Goldwater insisted on balanced budgets and sound money. After promising to get rid of any number of New Deal social programs, and after pledging to privatize the [...]
SA Column – States’ Rights and the Left
March 31, 2009 – 10:28 pm
I know few liberals who support the War on Drugs, marriage “protection” amendments, or the Patriot Act. In fact, if you talk to the most vocal Leftists about drug criminalization, gay marriage, or the loss of civil liberties, their anti-government rhetoric can sound downright reactionary. “Government has within it a tendency to abuse its powers,” [...]
