Taylor Rose at World Net Daily (WND) a fringe website where Obama Birther theories are spun out, interviewed Michael Hill, President of the League of the South on secession. The story is here:

It will be interesting to see if WND will continue to report on secession as an issue. Though their site is really fringe, though they have mainstreamed some issues, notably Birtherism, the idea that Obama wasn't born in the United States and isn't a natural born citizen.
Perhaps this is a one time reflexive response in regards to Obama's response to the secession petitions. An urge to oppose anything Obama might say.
