I'm ready to go there by natural causes or domestic enemy fire.<br /><br />You have reminded me of the classic quote of Major R. E. Wilson, formerly of the 1st North Carolina Battalion of Sharpshooters. <br /><br />"If I ever disown, repudiate, or apologize for the cause for which Lee fought and Jackson died, let the lightnings of Heaven rend me and the scorn of all good men and true women be my portion. Sun, moon, stars, all fall on me when I cease to love the Confederacy. 'Tis the cause, not the fate of the cause, that is glorious. From "Southern By The Grace Of God", Michael Andrew Grissom, Pelican Publishing Company, Gretna 1994, a priceless gift from my younger son, Vernon Lee Smith. And I would that the jury is still out on the fate of the cause.<br /><br />I think I was born a natural hillbilly Anti-Federalist, spiritually kin to Richard Henry Lee and the others, of that marvelous ilk.

Called me a 'neo-confederate' to boot.<br /><br />After Eric Erikson and his redstate ilk joined the 'nevertrump' crowd, I'm none too sorry about being banned.<br /><br />Ps. I'm a 'reformed' yankee who was born and raised on the south side of what is now called 'Chiraq' (chicago), and a staunch believer in states' rights.joetentpeghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07824182807509066659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7566715115931065803.post-83594877194381345752016-09-16T15:43:04.910-04:002016-09-16T15:43:04.910-04:00I had to drive to Tennessee to get gas to get to w...I had to drive to Tennessee to get gas to get to work from North Carolina.<br /><br />WOW! it is.Brock Townsendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11404173139501539265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7566715115931065803.post-69195968725256862842016-09-16T15:41:07.874-04:002016-09-16T15:41:07.874-04:00Alabama and your area.
