What really caused the Southern States to secede from the Union and destroy Liberty in America! To say that it was States' Right is to over-simplify the situation. We learned the following Union Marching song in the public Schools in the North in the 1950s.

"John Brown's body lies a-mould'ring in his grave,
His soul is marching on.
And He's gone to be a soldier in the army of the Lord,
His soul is marching on."

Thanks, Tyler - Now if we can get together and get the dicatatorial federal government out of issues that they have no business interfering with. Let's allow the States to solve their own problems like health care. Maybe we can reach some agreement on our political philosophies. Katrina is just one case of the federal government solving a problem. The problem often doesn't get solved and it ends up costing the taxpayers billions of dollars. I support the right of States to take care of their own business and have very little faith in the federal government doing anything constructive. Besides, if the States do it it costs a fraction of what it takes the federal government to do it.
