“Another 21 percent of Republicans said they weren’t sure while 9 percent of Democrats said they weren’t sure.”

That is very telling of America under Obama.

He wouldn’t be fighting alongside you, he’d be a collaborator.

Truly idiotic article. Does it refer to whether people think the CSA was right? Or are they talking about a theoretical future CSA, presumably consisting of the same states?

While I’m not a fan of the historical CSA, I might support a future one, depending entirely on the circumstances of secession and what the alternatives were.

This country,as currently constituted,is broken beyond repair.Secession is the only answer.That way,parts of the country (the “red” states) can be saved.Let the usual suspects (California,New York,etc,etc,etc) make EBT cards mandatory,allow marriage among five mammals and make Mexico one of their states.But count the other states out!

Don’t forget that this country is so broken that some Space Bars are beyond repair.

That 37% would skyrocket once the issues were clearly presented.

Yes, after Boston Massacre II (I assume it will include DHS and drones but who’s counting)

Both the nuns and the Army taught me my style of writing many years ago.Presumably it was the standard method back then.I'm not much concerned by those who disapprove of my style.

It’s all good. Just a bit of a joke.

It reminded me of a job I once had where we had a six hour meeting debating I’d we should use one or two spaces after periods and between sentences.

I was strongly in the two space camp.

OK..fair enough.Yes,I know that double space seems to be the more "modern" method.Or,for that matter,I may have been improperly instructed or may have misunderstood what I was being taught.But the debate in which you participated suggests that I'm not the only one who "single spaces".
