Too Much Crazy For One Lede

TPM Reader JP questions our editorial judgment:

You might have buried the lede with the Oath Keepers story. Concentration Camps are bad craziness, but is it really a tenet that they swear to oppose orders to invade a state “that asserts its sovereignty and declares the national government to be in violation of the compact by which that state entered the Union”?

Am I misunderstanding this but are they declaring that the Confederate side of the Civil War was the righteous side? And that active duty military should disobey orders or commit treason against the Union if it ever comes up again?

Yeah, it was a tough call.
