The removal of the Confederate flag from Amherst County's official seal has upset Southern heritage groups, who contend residents weren't told of the change. County officials acknowledge the image was quietly removed in August 2004 to avoid an uproar.

You really need to develop some new material, Watie. You're getting boring. Of course every time you try to do something new you end up embarrassing yourself. Say, have you tracked down a library with a copy of "Yachts Against Subs" yet?
it has been my experience that HALF-wits, fools & HATERS attack those who they KNOW are their BETTERS.

Those two states which did not ratify and join the new government were treated no differently than they had been under the old. They were not kicked out of the Union, their citizens did not lose their citizenship as Americans. They had no tariffs imposed, had no foreign policy seperate from the US, had no navy, no ministers in foreign courts, used no other money.
It is typical of you to take a temporary anomaly and build your case on it. No one believed North Carolina and Rhode Island would not soon take part in the new governmental structure of the Union.
And the five states at the Founding did not independently act wrt military matters or diplomatic. They NEVER considered themselves to be independent nations or outside the newly forming Union.

It is, only not the way you keep pounding the table and telling us that it is -- "and if you don't believe me, I'll burn your state down!"
Listen to the laughter, Butch.
LOL imagine someone who took Jefferson's blather seriously.
He REALLY was opposed to those who would tyrannize over the MINDS of men. It was the tyrannizing over the BODIES of them that made out to be a LIAR and a HYPOCRIT.
And here you are doing your damnedest to defend the greatest TYRANTS we have ever had on this continent. And their insane attempt to destroy the United States of America was A-ok to you.
in Los Angeles because of the separation of church and state thingy, city leaders want to ban any place name with a saint in it i.e. Santa Monica, Santa Barbara, San Fernando. They want to change the name of the San Andreas Fault to the Bush Fault
Now we are back to Class Warfare, eh? The RATS favorite whipping boy still.
Sure they did. Regulations were drawn, to govern trade between them and the ratifying States, in case they decided not to come into the Union. Those regulations have been posted to you and discussed, and we won't let you ignore the fact that, contrary you, the other States did contemplate the possibility that not all 13 of the original States would ratify.
As much as you lie-and-deny it, the States were free to ratify, or not to ratify. They were free to join in or stay out, whatever they preferred. God, don't you just hate it, bully-boy?
Oh, and by the way -- bite me.
It was the Gilded Age that encouraged them to become snotty-rich.
'Twaren't the rest of us. Point your finger somewhere else, bullyragger.
You want to read some constitution? OK
"To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress insurrections and repel invasions." but even better
"No state shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, KEEP TROOPS, or SHIPS OF WAR in time of peace, ENTER INTO ANY AGREEMENT OR COMPACT WITH ANOTHER STATE, kr witha foreign Power, OR ENGAGE IN WAR, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay."
Hence the Slaver clowns made mincemeat of the Constitution and you pretend they didn't.
