God Bless Dixie!
They are talking, I believe, about the practice of posting the exact same article without seeing if someone has already posted it. That thread on Robert S. Mosby was a complete waste of bandwidth and had nothing to do with political discourse in any shape form or fashion. It was a straight vanity dump.
And dump is definitely the right word.
And every time I see complete, utter nonsense about the legality of secession or the racism of Abraham Lincoln and the rest of the long list of crap spouted on FR by neo-confederate crazies, I will refute them with the historical record.
I know you don't like that; would that I would heed your diktat not to use the record. Sorry, can't do it.
