By the way that is an outright lie you submit that Texas sent as many men to the Union as to the CSA

70,000 to the CSA

2,000 to the Union

What sort of Texan are you again?

An interloper type

The kind that can make an error and admit it. I did err.

also the kind that agreed with San Houston about session

Let me tell you what is coming. After the sacrifice of countless millions of treasure and hundreds of thousands of lives, you may win Southern independence if God be not against you, but I doubt it. I tell you that, while I believe with you in the doctrine of states rights, the North is determined to preserve this Union. They are not a fiery, impulsive people as you are, for they live in colder climates. But when they begin to move in a given direction, they move with the steady momentum and perseverance of a mighty avalanche; and what I fear is, they will overwhelm the South.

oh and the kind that thinks the CSA was a moral abyss as most of its claims really came down to the POWER to Own another person
