Well said!

By the way, it wasn't a war between the states.....I will not recognize it as the WBTS.

How Lincoln's War, the War of Northern Aggression or the War for Southern Independence

How Lincoln's War, the War of Northern Aggression or the War for Southern Independence

How about War of Southern Rebellion, Jeff Davis's War, or just plain old Civil War?

[rebelyell]

How about the War of Constitutional Abandonment?

[azhenfud]

If Southern conservatives consider the Civil War to have been unjust, then:

1. They cannot be Republicans.
2. They should not be Republicans.
3. It's time to ride them out of the Party.

republicanwizard; you demonstrate exceptionally profound ignorance to post such a comment.

I don't have a problem with it but I think that the rebs on this forum would hate being reminded of the actions of the Jeff Davis regime.

[rebelyell]

Davis wasn't bound by constitution the U.S. government. Lincoln was.

CD,
Thought you may wish to consider this, as posted @ #75.

Without reading anything but #75, I'd have to say that it might be time for those with Southern sympathies to 'ride out' on our own, and take the Christians with us.

Why the 'big tenters' are in such a hurry to buy the votes of the gays and the poverty pimps, while shunning all things conservative is beyond me. I will remain a conservative as I have been. I will continue to be pro-gun and pro-life, and I will continue to believe that the WBTS was prosecuted improperly, regardless of the benefits we receive from being one nation today.

Given that we have a 'repuiblican' majority running all three branches of governmnet right now, their progress on pro-life and pro-gun issues leads me to the conclusion that the repulicans are becoming less and less the party of conservatives, and I cannot readily identify anything less worthy of my loyalty than the republican party.

Worth repeating. It seems that the Republicans are in a hurry to abandon what conservative values they have in their attempt to garner more votes. Still the 'pubbies are the party supporting the unborn, and the party supporting the freedom OF religion, so that counts for something. But it is a tragic shame that neither major party supports limited government as delineated by the Constitution.

There is nothing conservative about trying to overthrow the government or killing U. S. troops.

No attempt was made to overthrow the US government. No plan was hatched to send assassins to Washington to kill President Lincoln. They simply wanted to form a new nation, founded upon the Constitution that they deemed to be violated. Lincoln wanted the to collect the tariffs that would be sent to the Congederate government, stated he had no intention nor legal right of interference in anything else, and sent warships to SC to takeover the ports. All this while LYING to former US Justice Campbell, the peace commisioners and his own cabinet. Just as I would shoot the invader crawling thru my window, the Confederacy defended themselves.

Re the killing of US troops, not one US soldier would have been killed if Lincoln hadn't sent them into the South to start the war.

[justshutupandtakeit]

I call the defenders of Treason the D.S.s (Defenders of Slaverocracy.) It is more accurate as it is more accurate to refer to the War as the Slavers' Revolt.

[justshutupandtakeit]

It was and ever shall be The Slavers' Revolt.

Republicans, Let us Honor Abraham Lincoln Today

You're joking, right?

Honor the father of our ever-growing federal government and destroyer of the Constitution?

Hell no!

[Non-Sequitur]

Davis wasn't bound by constitution the U.S. government. Lincoln was.

Davis was theoretically bound by the confederate constitution and if stories be true then he ignored that at will.

[republicanwizard]

Yeah damn it. Government is so evil, isn't it? Especially when it stops one race from enslaving another.

[republicanwizard]

And all would have been illigitmate and put down by the Federal Government had they come to fruition.

[republicanwizard]

If you were not in our party in the first place, we wouldn't need your votes since Northern states would easily fall into our column.

[republicanwizard]

That's a good title.
