We here at RedState are American citizens. We have no plans to secede from the union. If you do, good luck with that, but this is not the place for you.

Erick...
Never went to your site anyway. From the times I heard you on the radio, you were always name dropping the trying too hard to be relevant. It turns out you aren’t and you have nothing of value to say, anyway...
Good luck with than asswipe.

Erick is right. We did not lose the election because of voter fraud. We are not going to secede from the union. This sort of loopy talk gets us nowhere.

I just wish that all 59 million that voted R would start to refer to democrats as “The TAKERS” party. They wanted class warfare.
Who really has the power? those who produce or those who only receive by way of Government sanctioned theft?
Also- Babies are a blessing!
Do 95 % of blacks support killing babies?
I guess so since they all vote for “The Takers” party.

“The union” is an abstraction. My life and the lives of my family and friends are real. All of us look at the European Union and see what a disaster it is. There is no way that such a diverse population living in such a expansive continental mass can be tied together and rules from one city in any way conducive to life, liberty and prosperity.

This sort of loopy talk gets us nowhere.It has been a way to "vent" during the last week, but you are correct.

I think we are at a point in American history where we actually have to make choices to cut our losses and man the lifeboats. The ship is sinking, and the liberals just put another big hole in the hull.
Conservative Americans have done their best for forty years, but there isn't anything else that we can do now that liberalism has been embraced by the very same people that we elected to defend us from it. Personally, I'm done trying to make a difference... it doesn't matter any more, and there are too damn many idiots making holes in the fabric of our society to waste my time.
I believe in America. I also believe that there are a great many people within our borders and within our government that are actively working to not only bring America to her knees, but to severely punish her and anyone who believes in her. This movement has been growing for the better part of a century, and until recently there were a majority of Americans who opposed it.
When those we elect to be our allies in government forsake their sworn duty to defend the Constitution, there is no chance for us to stand as a free country... and it is better to cut off the dying limb than to kill the host by allowing it to remain.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

All of us on FR have probably made it to Obamas’ enemies list. If there is a short version of that list...we’re on it.

never went to Erick’s site anyway, conservatives shouldn’t bother with Republicans who refuse to care about the Constitution; meaning if they didn’t care about natural born citizenship we should not bother with them

We no longer have a union of free and independent states as intended by the Founders.
We no longer have a union of ‘American states’ - whereby we are a whole nation of one people.
We are become a nation of takers and makers. Slaves to the federal Marxist regime - or a walking target to be mugged and fleeced.
Without secession - we willingly knuckle under enemy occupation and accept the rule of Marxist overlords over every aspect of our life. We surrender our lives to the whims of tyrants in power. We forfeit our obligation to God and will be forced to worship the state.
Without secession, you’ve chosen slavery to the State - because there is no other option.
We either refuse to submit to their rule, defy compliance and resist - or we go to mass death in chains.
Enjoy your servitude and eventual elimination Erick.

I see the guy’s point and wish we can work it out that way but it is becoming increasingly impossible. Like an airplane or rocketship, if we are to fly, we must get rid of as much drag as possible. This mean we will have to cut out the dead, useless weight.
