Says the person who needs to respond to almost every post in this forum that they disagree with for how many years. All hours of the day and night, week days and week nights.
At least you have provided a good.  there. |

i don’t see responding, and having the ability to move on, as being mutually exclusive. Your frustration is showing. Remember to save yourself some room for foaming at the mouth, for when we get closer to the election.

What would lead you to believe I was frustrated? As I said, I don't feel the need to constantly post - pretty much every day of the year, multiple times a day like you do.
I'm not foaming at the mouth. If you want to see a real angry guy, look at the loser who made this post:
vague insults from a little
twerp who can never criticize his own side or compliment the other side. bleating of the sheep XXXX, that’s 90% of what you do. what did i stay exactly, that was wrong?
from a guy who literally couldn’t bring himself
to showup here for weeks after the election. |

Maybe you could deface a statue or headstones or something to help with that anger. Be sure to headbutt them a few times for good measure

They were not traitors. Perhaps you couldn't answer if states are necessary because you don't understand why they were not traitors.
At the time, states had a lot more of their sovereignty intact than they do now. Their states had seceded from the union. They were patriots of the states they fought for, not traitors.
I understand Lincoln's argument that states could not secede without approval of the other states with whom they had a legal compact. But it wasn't clear then, nor totally so now, that the southern states did not have the right to secede. It certainly would be unfair to ask the average southerner what the complicated legal arguments were.
They fought with the same fidelity for their country as did the Union soldiers. Their sovereign states were their primary country, and the Confederacy was the new union to which their states belonged.
Lincoln understood that and saw no need to compound unnecessary animosities and to recognize the tragedy of brothers, literal or national, who were called to so brutally slaughter each other. Lincoln was not at all happy about having to kill so much of the flowering manhood of the South. He would have been repulsed by your point of view.
