Those separate parts are called ‘states’. If we return to greater independence of states and less top-down federal control, so much the better.

Roger Simon: Congratulations, Igor, You made Drudge.

As a symptom of our dicey times, a hitherto unknown (to us) Russian “Doctor of Political Sciences” named Igor Panarin has made the top of the Drudge Report this morning with the screaming headline: RUSSIAN ANALYST PREDICTS DECLINE AND BREAKUP OF USA. Does he really? I made the usual ten-second Google search and came up with this short bio of Igor. It was fascinating (though not surprising). It seems our Russian friend is the author of the following books: “Infowar and power”, “Infowar and world” and the ever popular “Infowar and election.” Infowar, eh? You don’t have to be the proverbial rocket scientist to know where that comes from. Well, he certainly earned his keep today and scored a big victory getting his risible comments about an imminent US break up on Drudge. Must be a slow news day.

Tsk, tsk, Matt.

the South, with its Hispanics; Texas, where independence movements are on the rise

Isn’t it interesting that “Hispanics” (whatever that is) take the south but not Texas, which is full of “hispanics.” It appears that the good Professor Panarin actually has a grasp of the power of fully armed rednecks.

I bet these guys did not loose so much as a single tricycle.

I suppose they could not spell "arrested…"

Kind of what I thought when I saw this. It would be good to see the states have more power and the feds a lot less.

The professor better start looking at his own country. A declining birthrate spells doom for a country the size of Russia.

Demographers estimate that Russia could lose 40 million people - almost a third of its current population - by the middle of the century.http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/6990802.stm

So the fight is on...where will the capital of the Republic of the South be located? Dallas? Atlanta? Nashville? Orlando? Charleston?

I’d like to suggest a smaller town which fit better....Lexington, Kentucky. Its a neutral fit, and easy distance of the other states.

That was 5 days ago! Did you ever think that, maybe, a bunch of people didn't see it then? Not everyone here sits around their computer 24/7.

[Article] He even suggested that "we could claim Alaska - it was only granted on lease, after all."

Careful, Igor. Igor bad ghoul. Igor lose paw.

That's Sarah Palin's state you're talking about. You want to get stuffed and mounted?

I agree but I think the Russian analyst was thinking more along the lines of regions perhaps akin to North East / Dixie / mid West / Cascadia - West.

I’m afraid this person is correct.

With the hoard of incoming communists, marxists, socialists etc. Our great country is near collapse.

Once they take us to collapse they will take even more of our freedoms.

They have assisted China the last 20 years in growth while limiting our own.

We deserve the government we get. It’s our own faults.

They will drive us in to a deep depression.

All that stands between freedom and slavery is the 2nd admendment.

This Rooskie isn’t saying anything I haven’t said in the last few years.

America is toast. Maybe our next (regional) attempts will be more successful.

The several hundred return posts on all of them would indicate otherwise.
