      SC Governor calls for removal of confederate flag on state grounds

      Nikki Haley calls for removal of Confederate flag - CNNPolitics.com This is quite a bold move. It will take a supermajority to remove it but I have a feeling that those who vote against removal would get some unwanted ridicule. Thoughts?

      The Gettysburg Address

      Why is this recited at 4 of July celebrations? I thought the fourth was about celebrating freedom. Not honoring tyranny.

      Lincoln Uncensored

      "The reason for this historical disconnect is that "this myth of Lincoln, not the Constitution . . . now confers legitimacy on the political system of the United States." Despite being mostly a bundle of lies, it is nevertheless the ideological cornerstone of statism in America and has been for...

      December 17, 1862 was an interesting day in American history.

      General Ulysses S Grant expelled Jews from his military district.With the following letter and orders. I have long since believed that in spite of all the vigilance that can be infused into Post Commanders, that the Specie regulations of the...

      Conspirator

      I just finished watching the movie Conspirator. It's about the trial of Mary Surratt. She was hanged for the conspiracy to assasinate President Lincoln. Anybody else seen this and studied the history? I don't know much about the history and wonder how accurate the movie is. It appears that...

      "Unconstitutional Killing"

      Unconstitutional Killing seems to be a subject of interest lately. I wonder why it hasn't been connected to one of the all time leading killers of American citizens, Abraham Lincoln. He killed more Americans than all of the other Presidents combined. If he believed that the Southerners were...

      Time Magazine:"the REAL reason for the Civil War was to end slavery"

      Accoeding to the April 16th TIME magazine, the Civil War's TRUE cause was to end slavery. That is also what our kids are taught in public schools: "The civil war was fought because the northern states wanted the southern states to stop slavery". Correct me if I am wrong, but the Civil War...

      Who was the best president?

      I've found out a lot of info lately on presidents that I didn't know about (ex. FDR, Lincoln), which really changed the way I thought about them. We obviously have a real winner for a POTUS right now....so if you could choose one president, from any point in time, to help out with all these...

      Lawmakers want to fight health-care law with ‘nullification’ argument - Yahoo! News I don't think it would ever come to anything like that, but reading some of the comments people posted kinda weirded me out. Looks like I may have to move to Wyoming :eek:

      What's up with the rebel flags?

      I have seen rebel flags used for avatars and in pics that are posted at various places within this site. Help me out with this...does this mean we have a bunch of "rebels" against the norms of society in general, or racists? As we know this flag is a powerful symbol with significant historical...

      If a state were to secede

      If a state like Texas or Montana were to succeed from the Union, would you move there? If they put their foot down against the federal government and demanded sovereignty? I'd definitely be interested but would probably wait it out a little to see what kind of leadership would be put into...
