"He made it up, just like Justice Chase."

Thank you. Coming from you, I'll take that as a compliment.

With respect to your proclivity for making up stories, and for confederate myth-making in general, let's note for the record that Chief Justice Salmon Chase wasn't the only person to write a majority opinion which deemed unilateral secession, as practiced by the southern states in 1860-61, to have no constitutional basis. His opinion in Texas v White is remembered for its clarity, its logic, and its finality.

Now where is the neo-rebs' legal "expert"? Oh yeah, banned for his obnoxious, bigoted, and racist posts.

Post such to prove your assertaition, or retract your lies.

The Supreme Court, and indeed the entire federal government, are creatures of the people, and subservient to them - the courts are not their masters. The Constitution requires that the states governments be 'republician' [representative], and as such, the seceding states exercised their sovereign right to modify their form of government. The states had previously done so (New England Confederacy, Articles of Association, separate and independent declarations of independence, Articles Of Confederation, Constituion). No provision of the Constitution prohibits secession, Chase invented it for those stupid and gullible to believe anything.

His opinion in Texas v White is remembered for its clarity, its logic, and its finality.

Bwhahahahahaha! The holding in the case is the reverse of waht is hould be on the bonds based on the facts. Regarding it's finality, if such were the case, leaglized segregation would be the law of the land. What a maroon!

Now where is the neo-rebs' legal "expert"? Oh yeah, banned for his obnoxious, bigoted, and racist posts.

You just got caught lying again - the "racism" in the post that caused his banishment was that of LINCOLN. The words were LINCOLN's. The person using the 'N' word was LINCOLN. LOL! You just called your beloved dicatator a racist!!!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHahahahahahahaha!
