Something is going to blow. Whether it’s secession or outright revolution or something in between is anyone’s guess, but the United States as we once knew it is over, and only a cataclysmic action will be able to restore it, and neither secession nor revolution is that cataclysmic. Hence, the America anyone over the age of fifty remembers is no more.

"Picture an America that is run not, as now, by a top-heavy Washington autocracy but, in freewheeling style, by an assemblage of largely autonomous regional republics reflecting the eclectic economic and cultural character of the society." Great solution.
This is one of the reasons that Europe and the West in general raced ahead of China. No oppressive centralization. China had central control, their very alphabet was designed to work across all dialects and languages, which when spoken, could not be understood, but when written down, anyone in the kingdom could understand anyone else.
Europe was always pulling in 100 different directions, so if something was not allowed in one locality, you simply moved to someplace where it was allowed, and like today, you still have more freedom in Europe than in America, just not all in the same place.
The Obamunists are going to screw down the lid tight, and the steam is already building.

What most liberals fail to understand is that their leisurely dabbling in progressive politics and moral equivalency is made possible by the existence of accumulated conservative moral capital. Remove the conservative anchor and progressive societies become dangerously seasick. I guess the lesson here is that liberals need conservatives more than conservatives need liberals (although society needs them on occasion).
Bears repeating.

"There is much in progressive ideology that simply seeks to undermine -- a strange method of establishing an identity. "
Now there's a simple, yet intriguing observation that explains volumes and yields more insight with examination.

FR is composed of older people raised in different times. Most young Americans are thumbsuckers, and saps for drivel coming from the media. There are not a lot of government minimalists among the young generation.
The common thinking among them is that government has to be better run, not that it should be tasked for fewer things. The latter is a foreign concept, and not even seriously considered.

After he fails? After he brings ruinous debt on an already debt-crippled people? I think we need to be talking about what to do now, not after. It is already "after". Either free Americans start talking about forming a new nation, or I start looking for somewhere to go. I am not going to subject my descendants to liberal fascist hell. We have to find a way to make liberal fascists pay for their crimes: the monstrous debt, the warmongering, the crime-nurturing, degeneracy-sponsoring, baby butchering, job-killing, economy wrecking.

Indeed, from the Sotomayor pick and anti-business rhetoric to the endless lecturing about America 's sins, Mr. Obama is starting to sound a lot like his former pastorNot only the truth, but a simple talking point when talking to brain dead liberals.

OUR COUNTRY:
For a long time now ALL politicians have been lining their own pockets with OUR money.
From DC down to the City council in every town in America.
We have All been too busy trying to make a living that we have not been paying attention as we should have.
Our founding fathers knew this would happen. I think it was Ben Franklin that said a revolution every 25 years is healthy.
I think that if we don't replace 535 in congress plus 9 Supreme Court Justices and The president and the retarted VP then we can kiss America Good By. We probably need to do this every 25 years.

When Obama fails it will be because he's convinced enough Americans to tire, as he has, of what used to be known as "America." Imagine what would have happened in Egypt had their priests adopted "liberation theology" rather than the standard of their fathers.I have first hand experience in doing battle with Libertation Theology proponents while I lived in NM. (in the early 1980's)
Liberation Theology = Communism in a religious wrapper
This is exactly how the Sandanista's came to power in Nicaragua, but infiltrating an element of the Catholic Church there. (over the extreme condemnation of the Pope)

It is unfortunate that the author mentions ancient Egypt as an example. A free society is dynamic and allows for change, but usually of an ordered kind. This change is, however, organic - it comes from the people who adopt what works and reject things that don’t work. The goal of the left is a static society, like ancient Egypt, where everything is predetermined by an elite and everyone knows his place. A place where innovation is prohibited. We think of the leftists as wanting a lot of change because they want to undermine things that work (the family, education, etc.). But once they are done with the chaos of overthrowing traditional society, the left will impose a strict, inflexible Marxist orthodoxy that will not tolerate any innovation or change.

If he doesn't fail, the secessionist will pay dearly.
“He will appear to be a man of distinguished character, but will ultimately become a king of fierce countenance (Dan. 8:23). With imperious decree he will facilitate a one-world government, universal religion, and global socialism. Those who refuse his New World Order will inevitably be imprisoned or destroyed until at last he exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped, so that he, as God, sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God (2 Thess. 2:4).”
