It would not be quick. If such a war took place we’d likely be fighting in places like Los Angeles, Baltimore, Manhattan and Chicago. And in some cases, we’d be fighting our own military. Many would likely change sides away from the federal government. Pockets of people with power to order and carry out drone strikes, air bombing raids in major cities across the country etc...it’d be a serious, bloody mess.

Why would we need to be fighting there? Blow the Bridges, Water ducts, and power lines, and wait. The city's would be ungovernable in a month. It wouldn't be worth governing in a year.

I have no illusions about what it would turn into. My initial commentary was operating under the suggestion that it would just be us against them with the Military more or less sidelined. Let me be clear. In a contest strictly between Liberals and Conservatives, we will dance on their graves. If the Liberals get the military to protect them, then that is a different matter.

I think they will still die, but it will take a lot longer, and in the meantime, most of the Liberals will become conservatives. There is nothing like real word misery to make people grow up and wake up.
