[Non-Sequitur]

There's a reason why the people of the Confederate states wanted to secede, and why many still believe in limited government, a government of laws, not men.

There was. Slavery.

There was. Slavery.

Only a complete and utter imbecile would believe that. Slavery was guaranteed to the states by the federal Constitution, and President Lincoln helped to get the Corwin Amendment passed in Congress, which would guarantee that slavery would be FOREVER. The Supreme Court (those gods you worship) had previously held 7-2 that all of the territories were open to slavery. If ALL the Confederacy wanted was to expand slavery, then they should have remained in the union.

Obviously that was not the case, they wanted to be free from the pestilence that had infected the land - LIBERALS that do not believe in the rule of law.

PITY that you've "lost your memory".
