So how come all of a sudden, it is now *ok* for California to want to do it for much the same reasons. Obama certainly didn't jive with most southerners or our values. But now it's ok?

seems like that lovely double standard the liberals have is rearing it's ugly head again.

If it is Treason for the South, it's Treason for ya'll.

Remember your arguments quoting Lincoln? Or how about Obama? "elections have consequences" and his speech on Wednesday about working together with our new President Trump.

Not me; no double standard here. Myself and some others here have been talking about this all along. Remember I astrologically predicted decades ago that America would be thinking about this in these times. I have also suggested that Lincoln might have been wrong to fight to keep Dixie in. I don't know if I was right, but it's a plausible idea. Why should we force any state to stay in a union they voluntarily joined? Why not let them go if they want?

Trump sounded nice, it's the right start; but one short speech is not enough to convince me that he's willing to listen to the concerns of the people who opposed him, or even the midwest working-class former Democrats who supported him, and not repress the people and the press as he promised he would do during the campaign.
