The USA never loosened its Federal grip post war, we'll never know what the CSA would have been like. My guess it would have fragmented, but who knows.

As for what the Goon did to the USA internally during the war, it is really no concern of mine as I consider the USA a foreign country during 1861-1865.

You guys have something to prove and are afraid, that's clear.

The same could VERY easily be said of you and your fellow wannabes.

As cowboywannabe says, put up or shut up. Posting on an internet forum isn't going to make the South come back. At least the REAL Confederates DID SOMETHING ABOUT IT. You ladies just post on a forum.

See the difference or do I have to draw a picture for you?

Yeah Dixie will certainly be more free by your posting on the internet.

LOL

Nope, not like any of those. Though if you would expect a Jefferson Davis College of Law to deal with honor, ethics, constitutional law, or racial equality then there would be no classes at all.

Weak....

Ok, so why do you keep posting? If our side posts mean nothing and posting here on FR tantamount to doing nothing then they require no retort on your part, right?

You are adding credibility to what deserves none. Why?

Your sides posts mean absolutely NOTHING. But that's EXACTLY why I'm here - to point out that fact.

If you accept my invitation to visit I’ll give you my name and address. Fair enough?

I'm not meeting some psychopath off of the internet. You gotta be kidding me. What a friggin joke. I admire your tenacity (I guess), but meeting up has very little to do with meaningless posts on the internet.

Hopelessly derivative, typically haphazard and content free, or as FreeRepublic's principle asshat says,

Well, these WBTS threads used to be like a graduate seminar on the war. They still can be on occasion when they stick to history, but this one has devolved into a cat fight in a bag.

The USA never loosened its Federal grip post war, we'll never know what the CSA would have been like.

We can make an educated guess, based on the actions of Jefferson Davis and the precedent he set. Based on that then the future would have been pretty grim.

As for what the Goon did to the USA internally during the war, it is really no concern of mine as I consider the USA a foreign country during from 1861-1865 to present.

Fixed it for ya.

But true. Davis had no interest in any of those.

Of course the definition of an intellectual in the South is someone who can listen to the William Tell Overture and not think of the Lone Ranger.
