    The confederacy lost once they decided to fire on Ft. Sumter. The war was unwinnable and they should have negotiated an end to slavery, with compensation. Idiots.

      The Confederacy had a real chance of winning, actually. A few more incompetent Yankee generals and perhaps Lincoln losing his re-election and they could have had it in the bag. Thankfully that didn't happen.

        I like Sloww's idea of Texas going it alone - they could be a strong bulwark against Latinisation in the spirit of Sam Houston.

        Look, I just don't anymore, okay?

          You're absolutely correct in your observation; but this time, Texas goes alone.
          Where do I sign up?

              What? No. I'm not. I have a work visa.

                How much can your hours get cut back while still keeping your "work visa"?

                  Visa gets renewed by my employer every 9 months. So long as they are willing to keep me on, it's not an issue.

                              We lost the civil war? I didn't know you identified as confederate above all else.
