On the other hand if they; Western Virginians so chose to leave and form their own government as is the way our country was founded and upon that philosophy we once flourished, good luck and hope you make out well. (old Abe could have learned from that kinda thinking.)

Somehow my copy of the Constitution lacks the article whereby the opinions of smug supercede decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court.

the opinions of smug supercede decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court.
If the Supreme Court ruled that a small dog was a cat, or Christianity was the only religion that could legally be forbidden by law, would you have no problem with that? Are they infallible? If the rules on the Barn wall were yesterday read "Four legs good, two legs bad." And today it reads "four legs good, two legs better." would you just shrug you shoulders and say to your self, guess my memory of yesterday was mistaken? We, that's me and you live in the greatest nation ever conceived, but only by half it's potential. A nation without firm rules; without which the Supreme Court can expanded by whimsy or with attention to the ""penumbra" is a nation at risk's" It matters today very little whether West Virginia was legally formed or not. What matters is that we the people should not be sheeple and except a Supreme Court decision that is only responsible to political party or philosophical bents. A Supreme Court that has no challenges to a decision that is obviously constitutionally unsound is a threat to all. Would you play poker at a house that had rules that were open to interpretation. If so, pack up you stocks and bonds, hard cash and deeds, and come to smugs house and play. If you think that it not a threat ask the people that have been adversely effected by the Kelo decision. Where the constitution of Connecticut was changed by fiat. (redefining a word in the state constitution to change it's meaning as it was known and used; rather than the lawful way, by amendment.) Our forefathers creating a government of checks and balances left out one thing a check on the Supreme Court that can be effected quickly, before the horse leaves the barn.

when you post things like #327, everyone KNOWS that you are "backed into a corner" & are helpLESS as to how to get out.
it is also TRUE that you HATE me talking about the HUNDRED THOUSAND (or MORE) raped/robbed/tortured/murdered UNarmed civilians and CSA prisoners of war. that is NOT the sanctimonious, SELF-righteous image that you DAMNyankees want to present to the world. noetheless ity is TRUE.

actually you don't want to ADMIT that DAMNyankees are the south-HATING,IGNORANT, arrogant, PREJUDICED,minority of northerners.
i suspect that 10-15% of northerners in 1860 were DAMNyankees. i would guess that the percentage of DYs is about the same, NOW.
examples of DAMNyankees are "Mr SPIN", the BIGOT & "ftd", the HATE-filled FOOL. BOTH are PREJUDICED against the south, southern culture, our flags/memorials/cemeteries/museums & the southern people. BOTH are NOT "loaded with brains". BOTH are clueLESS & UNteachable.
otoh, northerners like ELS, ariamne, exit 148, Dr Raoul, RaceBannon and MILLIONS of other northerners are NOT DAMNyankees. instead they are simply northerners.
additionally, there are a FEW south-HATERS, who are NOT really DAMNyankees. N-S is an example of such a person. he is NOT either stupid or UNeducated. rather he is simply a PROPAGANDIST for the unionists & a fanatic about the WBTS. (as he is a unionist FANATIC, he refuses to ADMIT the TRUTH about the war against the UNarmed civilians of dixie and/or the ATROCITIES committed against helpLESS CSA prisoners of war, though he certainly KNOWS what was done, by the lincoln MALadministration, to those victims of the "FILTH in blue".).
NOW, can you UNDERSTAND the difference in NORTHERN soldiers who were HONORABLE & fought WELL in a POOR CAUSE & the DAMNyankee "FILTH in blue" that came south for FUN, LOOT, RAPINE & HATRED??? also, can you UNDERSTAND the difference in being a "northerner" and a DAMNyankee BIGOT????(if not, we'll send you back to third grade.)

"..the HUNDRED THOUSAND (or MORE) raped/robbed/tortured/murdered UNarmed civilians and CSA prisoners of war." Invent on, raving insane one. Your blind neo-confederate hate, daily exhibited in your inflammatory postings, leaves no doubt why America was dragged into the Civil War, and why your kind should have been banished from the land in 1865 - forever.

As affirmed by the Supreme Court, the creation of West Virginia was constitutional. Per the constitution of Virginia at the time, the 1861 constitutional convention superceded the state government. Those delegates who voted for secession thereby lost their legitimacy as delegates, leaving the loyal delegates as the legitimate government of the state of Virginia. It was the loyal state administration of Gov. Francis Pierpont, who remained in office until 1868, which consented to the formation of West Virginia. Thank you for that insight.
