As President Obama said the night he won re-election, "We may have battled fiercely, but it's only because we love this country deeply and we care so strongly about its future."

Boy howdy he didn't waste any time telling his first 'whopper' did he?

"There is scarce a king in a hundred who would not, if he could, follow the example of Pharaoh - get first all the people's money, then their lands, and then make them and their children servants forever. It will be said that we do not propose to establish kings. I know it. But there is a natural inclination in mankind to kingly government. It sometimes
relieves them from aristocratic domination. They had rather have one tyrant than 500. It gives more the appearance of equality among citizens, and that they like.
I am apprehensive - therefore - perhaps too apprehensive - that the government of these States may in future times end in a monarchy [not called a monarchy but an executive with monarchial powers]. But this catastrophe, I think, may long be delayed, if in our proposed system we do not sow the seeds of contention, faction and tumult, by making our posts of honor places of profit. If we do, I fear that, though we employ at first a number and not a single person, the number will in time be set aside, it will only nourish the fetus of a king (as the honorable gentleman from Virginia very aptly expressed it), and a king will the sooner be set over us."

-- Benjamin Franklin

Barry obviously doesn’t get it. Those states on the map that were colored red didn’t want him to have a second term. That’s not very “united”.

So let's be clear: No one disputes that our country faces big challenges, and the recent election followed a vigorous debate about how they should be addressed. As President Obama said the night he won re-election, "We may have battled fiercely, but it's only because we love this country deeply and we care so strongly about its future."

OMG, I just did a Spit Take.

Our States Remain United

Actually...no.

You have divided the states. So do you demand that they behave in a manner unsuited to the beliefs of their voters?

Let me suggest Mr. Obama...what you are saying is that our states will remain unified...not united.

You can demand our inclusion in your idea of a country...but you cannot, not now or ever, win our hearts.

The United States of America will never give in to your communist takeover.

Take your Marxist/Alinsky ideology to your favorite club, Mans Country in Chicago, wherein they will obligingly and gleefully shove it up your derriere (in the manner you have done the same to the America people).

In other words, take your ideology and shove it...or up yours Bronco Bamma!

“Constitution, in all its provisions, looks to an indestructible Union composed of indestructible States.”

Well with what he is doing to the Constitution ... that is up for debate.

They enshrined in that document the right to change our national government through the power of the ballot . . .
___________________________________________________
That’s an incomplete statement. It should read: They enshrined in that document the right to change our national government through the power of the ballot . . . AND, ADDITIONALLY, when in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

The States are incredibly divided. Some kowtow to the federal tyranny. Others, and a growing number, are telling the feds to screw off. Look at State Nullification. Eight States have nullified federal gun control laws for any firearm that is made and remains within the State. Also, there is marijuana. Federal law completely bans marijuana, but many States have legalized it for medical purposes and now two have legalized it even for recreational purposes. The States are rising up and the People need to be with them. Hopefully, the States will become unified in abolishing the federal tyranny.

Why should the red states have to secede from the union? I would rather kick the blue states out!

The petitions for secession just play into Obama's hands. He'll use them with gusto to point out how he'll hold the country's sovereign states together forever.

He fancies himself the Lincoln of his time....he's even going to be holding the Lincoln Bible in his Idolization Day swearing-in ceremony.

I bet he'll grow a beard and a wart and wear a top hat for the day's festivities.

Texas was the one state that included an agreement to
secede as part of the entry into the Union.
