Open Message to Mr. Beck (self proclaimed historian). Tonight on your TV show you said that you read the Confederate Constitution and I paraphrase "it had slavery written all over it, all about slavery blah blah blah". You are incorrect sir, I did a word search on the document and the word slavery appears "one" time. Everyone can try it for themselves at the link provided below.
Can never trust a Yankee, even a goofy entertaining one.
Lerone Bennett Jr. is a race hustler. You don’t need a PhD. to figure that out.
And how was I to know that Lerone Bennett Jr. is a black liberation theologist when I'd never even heard of him? My sister is correct, you have to read a variety to be well rounded. Try it, it might help.
Gheez! Why don't ya lighten up? God gave us the gift of laughter for a reason. You are about as glum as they come. Here I was thankful for a good laugh and you're just ole' grumpy dumpy. Smile some....you'll be amazed at how much better you feel.
So, that’s a no, rockrr? :-)
Sorry — I didn’t mean to put words in your mouth. I was trying to be vague in my scolding about the whole name-calling thing... How’s this?
Now, y’all Southern boys — play nice with them Northern folks. They ain’t used to that ugly, coarse language! (NOTE: the foregoing comment was meant to be facetious, and was NOT meant to belittle ANYONE from NORTH of the Mason-Dixon line, but WAS meant to gently remind those from the South that we need to deal with the immediate problems we can AGREE on right now — and we CAN find common ground!)
Now, as to your last comment — YES, secession is certainly the LAST option on the list of remedies. I would add, because principle dictates I MUST, that it IS and will remain ON my list — but it’s at the bottom. If the Constitution can be restored, Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness regained, freedom from the tyranny of Washington achieved through the means of the “system,” elections, judicial decisions, legislative action, wonderful. So far, that has NOT been the case. If it can be acheived by the States reasserting their Rights under the Ninth and Tenth Amendments, and enacting Nullification, so be it! That remains to be seen. However, if the Feds crack down of the States (like Arizona) who attempt to enforce laws the Federals will not, or worse, arrest State officials, or aid illegals to violate State laws under Federal protection, or even use military or federal law enforcement violence against the States or their citizens in a major way — to me, the point will have been reached where only one of two choices remain: (1) the active overthown of the Washington DC Federal Tyranny, or (2) secession FROM the Washington, DC tyranny....
To me, I don’t think we are as far away from some of these scenarios as Glenn Beck seems to believe...Wouldn’t you agree?
What's a "no"?
Your next two paragraphs are superfluous and a bit on the patronizing side.
By your next paragraph you show that we aren't very far apart at all. And I might point out that Beck was among the first to raise the warning flags about the overreach of the Øbozo regime.
Have you read the book?
Let’s just say I’m well rounded.
LOL!
I think you may get a kick out of this Day by Day cartoon:

Well then...how can you argue over what was said?
Here's the whole show...watch it...then comment...
Second segment between 2:30 and the 3:50 mark is what Central is barking about...

CS Constitution
Can never trust a Yankee, even a goofy entertaining one.”
It's been well established by this point in the thread that the CC did in fact “have slavery written all over it” when used as a figure of speech, rather than a littoral statement...
Central even admits in that he is “paraphrasing” beck while at the same time being very littoral in his critique..
Becks conversation about the CC was a side tangent on how hard it was to find accurate black history of any kind ...Glenn does have ADD you know...stuff pops into his head and he talks about it...
Talking about buried black history and failing to touch on the confederacy is akin to talking about WW2 and failing to touch on the Japanese...
Obviously none of us were alive during the run up to the civil war
I'm from Ohio....you know what a copperhead is right?
http://www.civilwarhome.com/copperheads.htm
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copperheads_(politics)
I can talk about copperheads without being personally offended just because I was born in Ohio...
I submit that modern democrats aren't far removed from “peace democrats”...all one needs to look at is their ankle biting against the Iraq war when Bush was in office...
You now have direct access to the disputed statement and you may judge for yourself rather than take ANYONES word for it...
He threw it in there, out of the blue.
Maybe it isn’t a matter of how many times you listen to him, just a case of considering the source.
I have seen gb ridicule others of his own camp on topics that, for whatever reason, he chooses not to ally himself, e.g., the birthers, truthers, detention camps, etc. Even though,at times, he has reported on such things himself.
Devvy, for one, has his #!

I can like him too, as long as he keeps his yankee ass in New Jersey.
Be careful with the blanket statements.
I'll tell you what, you live your life your way and I'll live my life my way. Deal?
some who COULD be allies and possibly friends...
Yankees never have and never will be our friends and allies. Regardless of the struggle, in the end they want to run the show and put the South 'in it's place'.
But you feel free to go on and swap spit with them if you want to.
Hello punkrr. I see that you’ve taken the troll reins from your pal Mike, aka usmcobra.
If you believe that you have to fall into the obama camp that America is a 'downright evil' country.
Thanks for exposing yourself, libtard.
The originator of this thread by his own admission suggests that a couple more decades of slavery were better than a war to stamp it out.
If you know anything about the War of Northern Aggression then you'll know that it wasn't started to 'stamp out' slavery.
I don't have the time or desire to teach a course in history

There. Fixed it for ya.
BTW, which yankee state are you from, stinkpen?
The bottom line sunshine is that anybody that exposes The Coven's revisionist history and northron mythology is attacked by them. They employ Alinsky's Rules for Radicals, in the case of attacking historians that exposes them, Rule #13: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.
They cling to their revisionism and mythology in total desperation to hold on to the one and only good thing that ever came out of yankee land: they freed the slaves. (Of course, that was after they made them slaves to begin with but that's beside the point.) When their revisionism is exposed, especially by a black historian, they dust off their copies of Rules for Radicals and go on the attack.
If Jesus Christ were to return to earth today and side with the Confederacy, The Coven, who are all atheist anyway, would attack him as viciously as they attack us and all the historians that expose them for the liars that they are.
The Coven (the NS syndicate, punkrr, fudge_truck, stinkpen and the rest) are just a bunch of libtards that have slipped through the libtard filter on FR.
And as long as we keep hitching our team to the same wagon with the yankees it's going to stay that way.
The only way to positively secure liberty for ourselves and our progeny is to bid the damnyankee coven an overdue farewell and then we can sit back and watch them collapse into the communist dictatorship that they desire.
You need to wake up, preach.
Wow. So George Washington was a Federalist/Statist? Who knew?
And no doubt you also agree with Bennett's strong support for reparations for Black Americans to make up for centuries of slavery, right?
Nope. Slavery was evil, as are the dissemblers who try to rewrite history. Such as yourself.
War of Northern Aggression
Your slip is showing, here. Or, should I say, your figleaf?
BTW, which yankee state are you from, stinkpen?
One of the ones that defeated your warped view of the world.
Has anyone told you that your pointy white hood looks like a dunce cap in this light?
The responsibility belongs to the party who started the war, not the one who finished it.
