RS McCain takes a stand against history:

In 1996, a year before he was hired by The Washington Times, McCain co-wrote a manifesto called “Down on Dixie: the Confederate Cause and the South’s Scalawag Press.” Advertised for $1.50 apiece on DixieNet, the 16-page pamphlet looks nostalgically at “a time, not so many years ago, when newspapers in the South were also expected to be newspapers of the South and newspapers for the South.” By contrast, McCain and his co-author, now-deceased Sons of Confederate Veterans member Gilbert Smith, accuse modern-day Southern journalists of waging “a vicious campaign of propaganda and distortion” by saying, among other things, that the Civil War was fought over slavery.

“[L]et Southern journalists continue to sneer in ignorance at those things which they imagine are represented by the Confederate battle flag,” McCain concludes, in a condensed version of the pamphlet that appeared on DixieNet. “But this I shall not do. I shall not buy into the North’s hypocritical claims of moral superiority. Like my ancestors before me, I’ll take my stand in Dixie.” http://www.splcenter.org/intel/intelreport/article.jsp?pid=124
