The Republics of Texas, Vermont, South Carolina, California, etc, etc.

Columnist Jack Hunter over at Taki Mag has said the “S” word, “secession,” here . Secession is probably not a word you want to say on an internet site for any number of reasons. However, Jack points out that this past century’s most famous diplomat, George Kennan, was himself a secessionist. He also informs us that the Abbeville Institute is having a seminar titled: State Nullification, Secession, and the Human Scale of Political Order. Hmmmm!

Which begs the question, can a PoMoCon be a ‘secessionist?’
