It's sarcasm Pat. A crude but effective form of humor (although it's way overused these days). Surely my use of the term "Negroes" must have tipped you off?

But really. You haven't ever heard of Eisenhower sending federal troops into Little Rock because Arkansas didn't wanna let black school children into their lily-white schools. States rights baby!

If you don't think there'd be a massive backslide into environmental degradation, civil rights violations, rampant corruption, and the balkanization of the 50 states without Federal law you're not readin' your history.

States rights was the battle cry of the Confederacy. The Civil war has been over for 150 years Pat.
