Between abortion, homosexual “rights,” Obama vs. Palin, welfare deadbeats vs. producers, government unions vs. taxpayers, ACORN et al, vs. the Tea Party and private sector unions vs. business owners/stockholders, there’s a civil war brewing that’ll make the 19th century one look like a 3rd grade Sunday school play.

The divide does look like it's getting wider and deeper. We see the federal government working hard to make all states more alike in a distinctly and only "progressive" direction on all issues.

It sues states, it issues mandates, it fights laws designed to protect state sovereignty on issues traditionally reserved for them (like marriage), works to undermine states that are right-to-work over unionized ones and so forth.

If NY wants same-sex marriage, for example, their decision should not be used to spread the same to other states who want something else.

As bad as things are now nationally, imagine the economic catastrophe if all states were run like CA or Illinois. You wouldn't have bright spots of low unemployment like ND or of job creation like TX. Forget about foreign investors willing to loan us money to prop us up. Capital would flee American faster than ever. We're nearing these points even now, despite the bright spots!

Yeah – when you put it that way…excellent point. I just hope conservatives continue to fight for what they believe in.
