Secessionists meeting in Tennessee
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. - In an unlikely marriage of desire to secede from the United States, two advocacy groups from opposite political traditions — New England and the South — are sitting down to talk.

Tired of foreign wars and what they consider right-wing courts, the Middlebury Institute wants liberal states like Vermont to be able to secede peacefully.

That sounds just fine to the League of the South, a conservative group that refuses to give up on Southern independence.

2. If they wish to succeed, they should time it when...
the people have grown so dissatisfied and distrustful of the central government that few people support it anymore. When the government is choking to death on its own corruption and decadence like a 2nd Rome and is lying in its death bed, put it out of its misery.
