Actually no, I didn't say that but rest comfortable in the knowledge that this isn't your only mistake.
You should (sic) to suffer until you come to realize we are right, that the majority can be oppressive to the rights of the minority, and that no constitution which preports (sic) to protect the rights of the minority can mean a dam (sic) thing so long as that minority can’t withdraw from the “union” governed by the majority.
I recognize that scribbling....Noam Chomsky, is that you?!
“My efforts to suggest that the south might have had the moral authority in their quest had they sought secession legally are typically met with a “We don’t have to if we feeeeeeeeel that we are in the right to secede at any time and for any reason”.
Sound familiar?”
So a state leaving the union must get permission from the union even if they are being mistreated?
That is like an abused wife having to get permission from the abusing spouse. Are you still beating your wife?
You have no idea of the issues behind that order, do you. All you do is misquote, quote out of context, lie and obfuscate. Tis the Southron way.
BTW, you are aware that Jeff Davis did all that and more, aren't you?
Yes. Unless you happen to be lawless cowards.

No it isn't but thanks for revealing your favorite pastime.
Earlier on this thread I posted a link to the entire book. All five volumes of it and, as much as you might wish it to be otherwise, not a single word in all of it modifies the very complete statement you are complaining about. Nothing!
I will repeat what I posted earlier that you apparently chose to ignore: in a head-to-head study of the abusive power of the UNION and the CONFEDERACY on 150 separate items covering habeas corpus, censorship, taxes, and confiscation, the UNION was the freer of the two societies and the CONFEDERACY was the most statist.
Try again.
How were the Southern states being mistreated?
Thank you. I promise to keep a close eye on your posts to see if I can spot an intelligent argument from you as well.
If you do you may find him asking if you beat your wife as much as he does his...just sayin ;-)
I'm sure it did. If Booth didn't make a Martyr out of your beloved, he'd be known as the tyrant. Which he was...
“No it isn’t but thanks for revealing your favorite pastime.”
LOL my favorite pastime is insulting dammyankees, but most are too stupid to waste the time on.
“How were the Southern states being mistreated?”
By having to be in any proximity to even one dammyankee!
Let us know when you start.
The rest of us are coven is here to fight fantasy truth with truth fantasy.
Fixed another one for ya. I can do this all day.
If it's such a mistreatment then why do you put up with it? Delta flies east across the Atlantic as well as west.
It's high time for...Mr. Jones!
Keep yir version of “freedom”, ye damn fool libruls ‘n no-account neocons. We secesh remnants will keep ours - and practice it whether y’all make it legal or illegal – while we take the long, long view of history, at th' side of others whom ye’ve marginalized, such as th’ Serbs. As General Robert E. Lee wrote, “it is history that teaches us to hope,” and it is in akkordance with such hope that we look forward t’ the day that either we or our descendants daince on y’all’s graves.
OooWee! End Southern Occupation Free Dixie!!
You guys hate 24/7 don't ya. You must be some really pleasant people to be around....sorta like libtards....
*snicker*
It's a shame that it took a Civil War for the South to develop a deep appreciation for human freedom, but the lesson was a success. I don't know anyone in the South who defends slavery anymore.
But tis myth and fantasy that all y'all cling to and base your aspirations on.
...we look forward t’ the day that either we or our descendants daince on y’all’s graves.
Lik that's gonna happen any time soon.
