Absolutely.
Self defeating; the more you post the more we post. Can't give it up can you? Would it be so bad if ALL conservatives wanted to restore the republic by any means possible, INCLUDING SECESSION? Are you that afraid that it might be an idea that time has come, again?
Ironically, the state with the strongest Secession movement currently, and the one with the strongest claim to it's own sovereignty (imo) is...Vermont.
It's culturally OK for them, since they are above the Mason-Dixon giving them the "right" and credibility.
good point.
And next might be Hawaii too.

you can have the flag. It’s a part of history after all.
you don’t restore something by destroying it.
The CSA didn't destroy anything, the USA destroyed the CSA. The 11 states the left the union created their own country, nothing was destroyed. You keep it up, I don't need to call you a fascist, you do that to yourself with every post. Come on keep it up.
Where did I say the CSA? You are not and will never be the CSA.
Ok, forge the CSA example. If Texas became independent, what exactly gets destroyed in that process? Your ego?
nope. your credibility. they will have actually done something and you;ll still be whining about Sherman on FR.
But very true. Your culture was narrowly defined in 1860 and I don't see you guys broadening it much 150 years later. Any one that doesn't walk like you, believe like you, worship like you, or act like you has no place in your Dixie 2.0. And will be removed one way or another. You all make it clear all the time.
But O'Donnell is an intolerant blowhard who wants everyone to believe and act and speak exactly like she does. Spitting image of you.
Says the biggest lying POS on the forum. Well if anyone is an expert at lying POS's then it would have to be you. You've had so much experience with it.
The CSA destroyed itself. It committed suicide by launching a war it was not prepared to win.
Would I like to live in a country of like minded people who believe in the republic and want little or no govt. interference. Yes. Does race have anything to do with it? No, not IMO. You appear to see everything thru race colored lenses, perhaps there is a reason for that; would you like to tell the group something?

You go deeper than that. Your latest pejorative is Irish immigrants. As in "running out of Irish conscripts and needed fresh meat for his cleaver." Or "An army made up of drunken Irishmen can't be faulted to much when so poorly officered." And why should that be surprising to anyone? Your Southern Society of 1860 had no use for immigrants of any kind from virtually any country except one or two Western European ones. The True Southerner was an Anglo-Saxon Protestant, period. And 150 years later you still use immigrants as an insult. And select Anglo-Saxons at that. Would you exclude based on race? I'm sure you believe that you wouldn't. But anyone else, any immigrant or anyone with funny religious ideas or an accent, has no place in your Dixie. Anyone who doesn't sound like you, believe like you, think and act like you, worship like you and hate like you would have no future in your Dixe rerun. Why not man up and admit it?
