Yeah, if only the national political scene was even remotely comparable to modern day....hmmm....then you'd have presented quite an interesting statement.

It's precisely because the political scene is different that this statement is so interesting. The North was perfectly happy to hold the Union together when it could impose undesirable import duties on the South to its own benefit, but now that the South is becoming politically more powerful, they want out. The word might be hypocrisy.

It was meant as a witty jest, but cardcounter managed to make it a hilarious joke with his rediculous reply.

To be perfectly honest, I am surrounded by people. In fact, a young couple with two little girls recently moved into my house (it's too big for just me, there is plenty of room) who I am helping get on their feet.

A teenager also lives with me as her Mother is in prison, and he was looking at going to crappy foster care. I am trying to get him caught up on his school work, so he can do something with his life.

I wish I was in my earlier 30s!!! hahahaha.

I don't think I could imagine me being smarter than I am (at least in the sense of "smart" being measured by IQ tests, as I understand scores over 200 start becoming meaningless.) I am fairly close to pushing that, which is why I left High School at 16 and was a Junior in College at 18.

I have several businesses, and a regular 9 to 5 job which I enjoy. It is actually kind of obscene what I get paid for the job. So, no, I am fairly well compensated.

Bitter? What is to be bitter about? I live in the greatest country in the world. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

If you say that WE wouldn't let them, then you must also say that THEY are racist slave owners.

hmmmm a liberal being elitist, if I bought into all left wing BS about how they're the party that cares about the common man I might be shocked right now, but this is pretty much SOP.
