You seem to find these threads full of distraught conservatives and cut and paste your defeatist diatribes from other, earlier threads. Why? If we get bad law, we have to deal with it. Folding up into the fetal position is not dealing with it. Who are you?

Try this. What if, rather than just talking about how miserable we all are, we get as many people as possible to sign off on the Manhattan Declaration? Basically, it preempts the wait to November 2010 by drawing a line in the sand right now. That declaration sends a clear message that all who sign it will engage in conscientious civil disobedience. Simply put, we will not comply. If only a handful do this, it will go nowhere. But if the naysayers among us would stop throwing cold water on hot spirits, we could get this teapot to critical mass and finally boil over. Any thoughts?

If a tree falls down and no one is there, does it make a sound? If evil, crime-laden, unconstitutional law is enacted and no one abides by it, will it still stand? I fantasize about half the country simply refusing to recognize it, but of course I’m dreaming.
