In a recent post, I said to non-sequitur: And, Non, while you are thinking things over, who do you think paid for this gigantic invasion of Ft. Sumter and Ft. Pickens at Pensacola?

Strangely, his answer was: Surely not you?

That was a really lame attempt on his part.

As we have all seen in dealing with poster non-sequitur, he will post endlessly on the most irrelevant points. On matters of importance to him, he will use red-herrings, straw man arguments, non-sequiturs, outright misrepresentations, and the occasional canard.

As stand watie has pointed out, he engages in bashing just for the fun of it. He also likes to amuse and seek the approval of his notable pals here, Ditto and X.

But notice this....he is running out of steam. Your posts have exposed his arguments as full of bull, just as they have been for years.

The Neo Yankee State-ist fears any southern separatism movement. He tries to use the past as a canard against the present day situation. They are evil, spouting their Constitutional defenses, even while the left defecates on the once venerable document. Their goal is to keep it licked clean.

Wouldn’t the name alone have given you a clue?

In Non-Sequitur’s defence, he knows more about the Civil war and can document it on these threads faster than anyone I have ever seen and I commend him for not allowing such juvenile tripe as normally get posted on these threads to go unanswered.

stand on the other hand makes stuff up as he goes along and has for years, just ask him to retell the tale of how the confederate navy captured a u boat during WWII and displayed it in Galveston Texas.

The sole documentation of this event is recorded in a book no one but stand has ever seen or heard of, as for the U boat itself one would think that such a prize would be a center piece of the city of Galveston and yet there are no records at all of it ever being displayed there.

It was a sarcastic answer to an idiotic question. What do you mean 'who paid for it'? The federal government, of course. The budgets for the Navy Department and the War Department covered it. You want to imply that Lincoln violated the Constitution by appropriating money for the resupply effort instead of Congress. Such an implication is too ludicrous to deserve a reasonable answer.

As we have all seen in dealing with poster non-sequitur, he will post endlessly on the most irrelevant points. On matters of importance to him, he will use red-herrings, straw man arguments, non-sequiturs, outright misrepresentations, and the occasional canard.

Irrelevance, exaggerations, and canards are your area, not mine.

ROTFLMAO!!!!! When you and you Southron buddies exhaust your supply of fairy tales, you call your opponents liberals, homosexuals, Nazis, Commies, speculate on gender, all in an attempt to insult. Attempts at bashing comes from below the Mason-Dixon Line, not above it.

But notice this....he is running out of steam. Your posts have exposed his arguments as full of bull, just as they have been for years.

Your imagination knows no bounds, and your self-delusions are endless.
