So you are just going to regurgitate the same old tired statement over and over.
I have already cited to you that the Constitution specifically delgates the power of Commander-in-Chief to the Executive. And that the Tenth Amendment specifically prohibits the States from powers delegated to the United States by the Constitution.
The Rebel democrat controlled States had no Constitionally legal right to usurp power that the Constitition gave to the United States.
Yawn...
You’re sleepy? Maybe you should take a nap.
Actually, the Ninth and Tenth Amendments are the "law of the land," not some regurgitated "old tired statement over and over."
"Learn to read you moron."
I have already cited to you that the Constitution specifically delgates [sic] the power of Commander-in-Chief to the Executive. And that the Tenth Amendment specifically prohibits the States from powers delegated to the United States by the Constitution.
So what? It's irrelevant to the issue of State secession.
The Rebel democrat controlled States had no Constitionally [sic] legal right to usurp power that the Constitition [sic] gave to the United States.
True - but the Constitution nowhere prohibited State secession, and therefore there was no violation of constitutional law.
"Learn to read you moron."
;>)
And maybe you should come up with a rational argument (and pardon me if I don't stay up late waiting for it ;>)...
You really have said nothing. You dont even make a point.
Everything is a one-liner with you.
I dont suppose you would like to explain how the 9th or 10th Amendment support a right to secession?
The Tenth Amendment clearly supports my argument that the States were prohibited from secession because it prohibited the States from usurping the powers specifically delegated to the United States by the Constitution such as is the case of the Article II.
It is you that can not come up with a rational argument so instead spouts one-line tough-guy comebacks. Please dont stay up. Knock yourself out. Put that perverted mind of yours to sleep. Do the right thing.
Sure - the Constitution no where prohibited the right of State secession - therefore, that right was reserved to the States, or the people of the States.
"Learn to read you moron."

Go pound sand. And have a nice night while doing it...

I already explained to you how it did prohibit the States from usurping powers from the United States under the Constitution but you are just trying to one-line your way out of acknowleging it.
Neither Amendment (9th or 10th) supports secession as you claim (if not then explain how) but instead these Amendments support my explanation of how they actually prohibit the States from secession.
The States had no Constitutional legal right to usurp powers from the Constitution.
I am sure that you will just spout some one-line denouncement of what I am taking the time to try to explain to you though.
Dont take offense. You were pounding it over and over with your one-line gratification of insulting posters with your whacked out pervert name-calling so I just wanted you to turn it back on yourself and give it a rest.
Enjoy your evening as well. You have really proven how tough you are here. Give it a rest even.
Actually, you have yet to cite a single article, section, and clause from the Constitution that would in any way prohibit State secession. Feel free to correct that error.
Neither Amendment (9th or 10th) supports secession as you claim (if not then explain how) but instead these Amendments support my explanation of how they actually prohibit the States from secession.
Once again, you're wrong - unless you can cite a specific article, section and clause from the Constitution that prohibited State secession. And (based on your track record) no one will stay up late waiting...
;>)

True - but State secession in no way 'usurped' powers...
I am sure that you will just spout some one-line denouncement of what I am taking the time to try to explain to you though.
What?
[Kumbayah, my Lord, kumbayah... ]
As I said, please, and by all means, go pound sand...

Rational argument?
How about something like: The south lost it’s “moral authority” to secede the moment those idiots in Charleston fired upon Fort Sumter.
You reap what you sow.....and the South did. The Confederates started it and the Union finished it.
"Moral authority?" That raises a very simple question, sport: should government be bound by law, or by morality?
Please feel free to answer - it's a simple question.
The Confederates started it and the Union finished it.
Actually, the Union started it. When the newly elected president met with his cabinet, all but one of his advisers suggested that he NOT resupply Fort Sumter. Mr. Lincoln ignored their advice - and almost two thirds of a million Americans died as a direct result...
The Confederate justification is irrelevant as far as federal action was concerned. What was relevant to Lincoln was that armed insurrection was preventing him from carrying out his Constitutionally mandated duties. Where the justification comes in is in regards to moral justification for their illegal actions. Sadly, the rebs had no legitimate complaint except immature resentment over a political verdict. The Constitution and Union didn't mean much to them when they were not winning elections and running things. Political immaturity at the preschool level.
Fail.
And if you’re going to fire the first shot, make damned sure you can win the war. The South didn’t.
Looks as though the coven is scraping the bottom of the barrel REALLY hard for talent these days.
Well it has been the libertarians who historically involved themselves in covens. It was all the rage among libertarians back in their counter-culture days of sexual liberation. The libertarian motto “Live and Let Live” is really simply a rewrite of the wiccan motto “Do As Thou Wilt But Harm None”. Of course it all started with a Libertine named Aliester Crowley though also known as the Beast. So it you and your libertarian fellows who were scraped up from the bottom of the barrel. You all would make the libertine Crowley proud though.
Shocking how insightful you are Mike. LOL! Just because the North strong armed, manipulated, and lied doesn’t mean they were right. But then again everyone has an opinion and we all know what they say about opinions...
