The infamous Socialist Pecunious Lawlessness Center (aka the Southern Poverty Law Center -- but it's hard to keep a straight face when you say that, idinnit?) issued a so-called "intelligence report" claiming that the League of the South in particular, and the whole Southern movement in general, is a "racist hate group."

Well,  you know what Bugs Bunny says.  (Click Bugs to hear it.)

Many people have already begun refuting the mistakes, distortions and downright lies packed in these evil documents.  We applaud the League of the South for standing up to these glorifiers of the socialist, one-world vision and encourage Southerners everywhere to repudiate these liars and their false witness.

The story also looks at the sordid tale of corporate giants banding together to economically oppress an American small businessman -- barbecue genius Maurice Bessinger -- on the basis of his political and religious beliefs.

Bugs got it right again.  Click him and hear it for yourself!

And the battle has been joined from one end of Dixie to the other.   See The Empire Strikes Back for our thoughts on these egregious assaults on Dixie.

Surfers who've visited 180 Degrees True South before will notice our new format.  We're in the middle of our "remodeling" and hope to have it completed before the end of October.    Page One now has hyperlink buttons to take you to each section of our e-zine.  They are not activated yet, but when they are, here's what you'll find in each department:

Inside One-Eighty will be an introduction and quick overview of each issue's contents..

Walkin' in High Cotton will chronicle the strides made by the proSouthern movement as time goes on.  Look here for reports of rallies, conferences, protests and demonstrations, and successful campaigns and initiatives.

With homage to the brilliant General Nathan Bedford Forrest, Puttin' the Skeer On is True South's "idea page" where we will present suggestions for helping to further the cause.

Keep up with heritage violations at the Anti-Southern Bigot Tree, where bigots and their attacks will be compiled as comprehensively as possible.  If you know of a heritage violation, email us!

Backsass! is a collection of my responses to the Yankees, carpetbaggers, scalawags and assorted self-righteous hypocrites who are trying so hard to make us ashamed and regretful of who we are.  As Daffy Duck would say...  Well, click the Daffster to hear it yourself.

Southern-flavored OpEds -- This month:  What would the Founders of the united States think about how our stewardship of the great experiment in democracy they fought and died to give us?  Steve Bilyeu's Op-Ed "We Failed Them" makes it plain that we have not been worthy of their legacy to us.

Remembering our brave Confederate ancestors, the war they fought, and the heritage and culture of the South is the focus of Old Times Not Forgotten.

You'll soon be able to look In the Attic to find feature articles from past issues of 180 Degrees True South.

There's nothing like Southern humor, and that's why we had to include Now That's Funny! in our remodeling job!

This monthly e-zine is solely the work of one person.  I do it as a small contribution to the overall proSouthern movement.  I hope the great Southrons out there in the trenches, working hard to preserve our heritage or move Dixie toward independence -- or both -- find something here to inform them, give them a chuckle, inspire them to hope, encourage them to action.

Creating websites -- and updating them every month --  can be fun.  But it's also just enough like work that I need a really good reason for doing it -- and Dixie is one of the best reasons I can think of.

Welcome, y'all, and thanks for your patience.
