...but you'd be ignoring the States' Constitutional Right to Secede from this VOLUNTARY Union of Commonwealths.

Union of Commonwealths? First time I've ever heard it referred to as that. Regardless, the right doesn't exist. Arbitrary secession is not Constitutional. The Supreme Court ruled on that in 1869.

Happy Holidays back at you. I guess I assumed that y'all didn't celebrate Christmas what with Santa being a Yankee and all. He does live at the NORTH pole you know.

That's what happens when you live in the Commonwealth of Virginia fer 30 years...LOL!!

"Regardless, the right doesn't exist. Arbitrary secession is not Constitutional. The Supreme Court ruled on that in 1869."

LOL...unfortunately, this was not the first--or last--time the SCOTUS ruled UN-Constitutionally.

"Happy Holidays back at you. I guess I assumed that y'all didn't celebrate Christmas what with Santa being a Yankee and all. He does live at the NORTH pole you know."

LOL...I've got nothin' against Yankees except fer the fact that they stole Jason Giambi from my A's...after stealing Reggie Jackson, Catfish Hunter, Ricky Henderson, etal. ...SHEEEESH, now I'm gettin MAD!!
