Russian economist and academic Igor Panarin says that there is a strong possibility that the United States will break into six pieces by June 2010, which he says will be the result of a second economic crisis in late November. After Texas Governor Rick Perry mentioned the possibility of his state seceding from the union, Americans started to take Panarin's predictions much more seriously and now the video game 'Shattered Union' is being developed into a major Hollywood motion picture.

Oh my, I can just imagine Hollywood’s take on the secession and division of American states from the union.

The Union will not shatter, but there will be blood. Yes, there will be blood, but who, in the end, will be drinking the milkshake?

And it might begin out of Texas.

The current southeastern US becomes a new republic. Question is: how do we ship Atlanta and New Orleans up north?

As much as I’m ticked off at Rick Perry and the debacle he has presided over regarding our roads, I think he would be more apt to say “enough” and Kay Bailey would just keep taking her meds and go with the federal flow.

Yes, I can just see the Hollywood movie now.
Civil war, with southerners dressed in Klu Klux Klan outfits against Texans in Cowboy outfits, New Englanders in three piece suits, Mid-Westerners with pitchforks, Washingtonians with chainsaws, and Californians with cellphone cameras creating the videos.
Meanwhile, Obama tours the world on an eternal apology tour, in between rounds of golf, and Michelle works the White House vegetable garden.

He forgot we all are armed and the Americans will prevail in this. The communists King Obama and his RAT leaders in the House and Senate should realize what damage they have done to America.

The problem with this premise is that this Russian sees America through his Russian eyes. The former USSR dissolved because it was a union held together with an iron fist, pitting ethnic groups against each other, using genocide to keep ethnic groups in check.
Unless you are an American Indian, you probably don't view the United States like that.

We say FU to socialists all the time! Like for example at the Tea Party Express gathering on the steps of the Capitol last night.
C’mon down!
I seriously doubt we’ll secede from the union, however. I still hold out hope that all of US have gotten our wake up call and will rout the ‘Rats within the system.

Certainly somethings got to give.
Watching the Republican congressional delegation crowded up on the platform as Mark Levin spoke on Thursday, I was shocked at how weak they appeared.
The truth is that the Democrats have broken the bond, they can and will do anything they want to.
Vacuums like that in affairs of state usually lead to killing.

Local talk show host had a theme of AZ joining with TX and trying to get NM also in such secession efforts.
