And you don't have the sense enough to let it go.

Part I of the Amendment:

No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.

The final clause: "But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability."

I'm not the one that looks like a moron for being able to comprehend the English language.

Don't you love it when these "yankees" show their envy of us Southerners? The South won't rise again. It won't have to. It's already risen!
