Sorry-- forget your Yankee bashing. Why don't we just consult the very declaration made by the South Carolina legilature when they voted for secession?

No, it was all about states' rights ... the right to maintain slavery.

You must be some kind of truth freak.

I plead Guilty!

I like nothing better than to hoist people on their own petards. I love orginal documents that contradict bloviation by people who should know better.

If the folks voting to start the American Civil War said it was about slavery, who am I to contradict them?
