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?’

Dear Reader,

While I have you, can I ask you something? I’ll be quick.

Twenty-five thousand people subscribe to First Things. Why can’t that be fifty thousand? Three million people read First Things online like you are right now. Why can’t that be four million?

Let’s stop saying “can’t.” Because it can. And your year-end gift of just $50, $100, or even $250 or more will make it possible.

How much would you give to introduce just one new person to First Things? What about ten people, or even a hundred? That’s the power of your charitable support.
