Secession? OMG, Governor Palin is really one of us. The right of secession for the individual states was taken away at the point of the bayonet.

“The right of secession for the individual states was taken away at the point of the bayonet.”

You’re right. Long ago, the right of succession was a topic of interest for decent, middle-of-the-road politicians. Since Lincoln expended 600,000 men proving succession is treason, a tenable theoretical position (just like the right of revolution, which is still barely with us) has turned into crankery fit only for racists.

She was a member of a secessionest organization? Holy smoke, I think I love her! As bad as it was going to be for me to pull that lever for McPain I will do it gleefully now!

Don’t the dimwits in the MSM know that the vast majority of Americans can identify with this woman?
