"American Conservative" magazine has secession article.

American Conservative magazine has a secession article written by Kirkpatrick Sales, one of the Vermont secessionists. It is about nullification.

It is a book review of "Most Likely to Secede," about Vermont by the authors. They have a favorable opinion of their own book. It is their usual craziness.

What is interesting is that they have gotten a venue in the American Conservative. Though my standing joke about American Conservative is that it really would be more accurate to call it Confederate Conservative with all the neo-Confederates that write for it, it is another magazine with a national audience providing a venue for the discussion of secession. Though it is often the same people who write for Chronicles magazine (www.chroniclesmagazine.org) it is also other reactionaries. So it is an expansion of the legitimacy of the idea of secession though perhaps not to a great extent.
