Don't confuse the poor guy with facts.  You are ruining some perfectly good fantasies!

That seem par for the course.  We seem to be repeating ourselves on both sides quite a bit.  Like, I got tired of saying what the Founding Fathers believed about the Second Amendment, and written quite clearly into the law.  There are certain things that an extremest of either flavor refuses to hear.

As for "what happened the last time the New America started a war with America?" that was called the civil war, and your side lost pretty badly. And you still want to celebrate and laud the fallen heroes of this lost and ignoble cause.

I wouldn't say no values or principles.  'Get more wealth and power' counts, even if they seem so out of step as not to be counted as values or principles by some.  It is sort of like when Classic claims liberals have no values.  If your values are so much in conflict with the other guy, he might not recognize the values as values at all.

I think you could call the (expletive deleted) poor values, though.  

I gave up on the entire wash-rinse-repeat cycle.  Classic is unreachable ... as are we for that matter.  He's exceedingly comfortable with his version of the truth.  We're comfortable with ours.  Spending hours trying to change that is hours spent on futility, so I wish you well.  I'll be over here having a beer.
