For the record, I am indeed a 10th-generation Yankee. I am also an Anglophile. You sister-shagging types would definitely call me an effete elitist, as I can pronounce 'nuclear' correctly, don't live in a trailer, abhor NASCAR, country music, snowmobiling and southern accents while I prefer tea to coffee, soccer to NFL, and read the New York Times. I also hold a valid passport, which I shan't be using until the Yellow Rogue of Texas is out of the White House.
Clearly North America isn't big enough to hold all of us under one flag. What's so difficult about agreeing to an amicable separation? Afraid to lose your free ride once the federal government can no longer milk the blues dry to support your welfare farmers and ranchers?
Going alone would be a noble experiment in social anthropology. We'd have the necessary funds to develop a European style social safety net, and you redstate rednecks would quickly disintegrate into tribal fiefdoms of bickering warlords, until the ammo runs out. You could then petition to have us take you back, but we'd need to set a few ground rules (like maintaining the separation of church and state, for example).
Until then, looks like those of us with a modicum of intelligence will be subjected to an endless assault on our civil liberties as well as our aesthetic sensibilities.
Good bye, good riddance, and don't say we didn't try to warn you.
You were zotted. That's what.
Will you stop already?
Hello and Goodbye..
Probably the same thing that will happen to this one Einstein.
Incoming........
What the heck are you talking about? When did you write it and are you sure you didn't just screw up?
Because we don't like newbies who show up and start slinging insults.
Leave. Or we will throw you out.
To repeat, it is poor etiquette to post your own thread when you are a newbie.
It is against the rules to post a vanity and provide no link to actual information.
You are an uncouth snob.
Nigel's back!
Post his IP so he will know that we're on to him?
Please take the hint.
You are right. I like a one mind set. Your mind set is unacceptable to us. We rule the country and soon all of the likes of you will be in internment camps waiting for deportation to special places. Are you scared. Good.
Oh go home, the DU dummies miss ya!
You are a lying troll who is NOT an American, never set FOOT in America and is NOT from New England.
The terms you use, like 'shagging' are NOT used ANYWHERE in the US you moron!
We don't have to listen to you if we don't want to. This is a private site.
But you knew that.
Am I too late for the party?
Thanks for stopping by.
You have to remember that this IS a conservative, and we can choose what we discuss.
Also, you have to make logical points, not just take a position. We applaud logic and reason, not just emotion.
Your thread might have just been pulled, as opposed to your being banned.
We especially don't like hit and runs -- where folks come in and shout insults without facts, and then never come back.
