The "bug-eyed secessionists" to which I referred were represented by the fire-eaters (a term they, themselves, preferred). Today, that group is largely represented at FR by various droolers, cretins, and auto-eroticists. There are some who can discuss the ideas in a reasonable manner, eschewing the racist dynamic, but they are few and far between. Do not make the mistake of equating secessionists with southerners; as most southerners long ago renounced the racist secessionist political philosophy. Those at FR who embrace the racist secessionist philosophy are found all over the country; sadly, there are even a few Texans.
So, do you stand by it?
OK, whose not lord of his/her castle?
Guilty! When Laurie Dhue is on, I fall into the drooler category.
Yes. Does the shoe fit?
