'But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.'
Nowhere does this phrase from the Declaration of Independence say what kind of a government they had to set up. But lets move on ... you're just pissed because Lincoln waged an unjust and illegal war on the seceding Southern States and you can't disprove what I have posted before. Historians have researched the information ... and it is there! You and Walt ought to form your own little history company and call it "Dummies about Lincoln". Get the book I mentioned to you earlier, read it well, and then get back to me. By the way, its an out of print book but you can still obtain it, it was published in 1976 during the bicentennial.

Nah let's stay there for a moment. Try reading the confederate constitution some time, it's pretty obvious Davis didn't. It is similar to the real one in that it requires the same three branches of government; legislative, executive, and judicial. Davis totally ignored the third branch. Laws and courts would just have gotten in his way as he nationalized industries, siezed private property, and pretty well pissed all over the states rights that the confederacy was supposed to have been founded on. Those are the facts, the dirty little southron secret that y'all are too terrified to debate on. Jefferson Davis was a criminal, a tyrant, the closest thing to a dictator this continent has seen. He had zero respect for the rule of law, no patience for legal niceties. Jail 'em and forget 'em. Government wants something, government takes if 'for the war effort'. And above all, slavery at all costs.
And unilateral secession as practiced by the confederacy was illegal. The Supreme Court ruled that in 1869.
