Paleo? Please.

I have been noodling around a bit on various blogs sponsored by the “paleo” persuasion.  I know we have a few in-house paleos here.  The discussions have been spirited and cordial and the argument heated and well played.  Yet there is one re-occurring theme on most sites: the Confederacy.  Paleos seem to hate Lincoln as much as they love the Confederacy.  Why is this?  Is there a self-described paleocon out there that is not a Southern Cross wearing, rebel-yelling Confederate lover (oh, I mean state secessionist lover, sorry)?
