But in the end your approval or disapproval doesn't mean spit.

Now THERE is a point upon which we can agree! Doesn't alter the TRUTH one iota however!

Unilateral secession as practiced by the southern states is a violation of the Constitution, and it will remain so until the Constitution is amended or a future court overturns Texas v. White.

Bull Sh*t!

Firstly there were NO unilateral secessions! EVERYONE of them was done by acts of the legislatures of the states concerned and there would have been MORE of them except for the UNILATERAL actions of King Abraham and his minions preventing those duly constituted bodies from acting!

Fact is that the ENTIRE history of this nation is based on the self evident right of secession and you well KNOW that!

The TRUTH is in the eye of the beholder. What you see as truth I see as falsehood.

Crap. Were the actions taken with the consultation of all the parties affected by the decision? No. Y'all walked out without any input from the rest of the country, walking away from the national debt, treaty obligations, and taking with you a considerable amount of federal property.

Fact is that the ENTIRE history of this nation is based on the self evident right of secession and you well KNOW that!

Do I?
