Liberal Gone Insane





Liberals Urge Southern Secession
Call Southern Conservatives "neo-Confederates"





The nation would be better off if Southern states seceded from the union, and Republicans pushing for right-to-work, voter ID laws and other reforms are “neo-Confederates” according to a candid exchange between a major Democratic donor and liberal organizers on Gamechanger Salon.

The forum, a secretive and exclusive digital gathering of over 1,000 leftwing leaders, activists and journalists, was recently made public by Media Trackers, and email exchanges between members offer fascinating insights into the group’s inner deliberations.


“For more than 100 years, the South has been dumbing down national politics, tilting the country in a conservative direction, supporting militarism, all while demanding huge financial subsidies from blue states. It would be 100% fine with me if the South was a separate nation, pursuing its own priorities and destiny. And if people like you succeed in blunting the conservatism of the South, more power to you.”
Gamechanger Salon participant Jon Stahl sparked a conversation last October about the role of the South in American politics when he posted a link to Michael Lind’s piece for Salon magazine entitled The South is Holding America Hostage. “I thought this was an impressive (if tough) piece of big-picture political strategy and prescription,” Stahl explained before remarking, “Would be interested to hear others’ opinions of whether he is on target or way off…and if so what that might imply.”

First to respond was Guy Saperstein, a wealthy California mega-donor to Democratic candidates and leftwing causes. “In the alternative, could we just let the South secede?” the part owner of the Oakland Athletics baseball team queried.

He was serious.

“My comment was not made in jest at all,” Saperstein wrote in a follow-up explanation. He expanded on his theory:

“For more than 100 years, the South has been dumbing down national politics, tilting the country in a conservative direction, supporting militarism, all while demanding huge financial subsidies from blue states. It would be 100% fine with me if the South was a separate nation, pursuing its own priorities and destiny. And if people like you succeed in blunting the conservatism of the South, more power to you.”

Saperstein is not a fringe activist hiding out on the far reaches of the left. He’s a well-heeled funder of Democratic campaigns, a former president of the Sierra Club Foundation, and founder of The Patriotic Millionaires, a group of self-conscious millionaires begging the government to raise their taxes.

"For more than 100 years dumbing down national politics, tilting the country in a conservative direction, supporting militarism, all while demanding huge financial subsidies from blue states!"  And, OMFG! We want people to show ID before they vote?  OMFG!  We really are the debil.

In all seriousness though, at this point the gulf between Liberals and us Old School Americans is so wide as to be uncrossable.  There is no unobtainium that will change things.  But, it is they who have violated their vows, and so it is they who must leave the house in this divorce.  We will be the USA, and they can be whatever the hell they want.  Eventually they will fall apart amidst rampant crime and squalor, and there will come a D-Day, and a new beginning under old rules.

Fine with me.
Get out of our states, take your liberal politicians with you, and if you need any water, oil or natural gas, it's the going rate plus a 50% surcharge for bleating sheep-like lemmings.

The political party that advocated slavery and secession is now calling the party that effectively destroyed slavery in the US 'neo-confederates'.
The GOP was formed in Ripon, WI, with one major plank being the elimination of slavery.
Now, the democrats are keeping the poor as welfare slaves to the party and the State. Promises are made, but never kept. Not even when the old pols die are their vassals freed from their servitude.

I think what he meant was red states. All red states are not the south, but all should escape the central government. A parting like Norway and Sweden is in order. Or, we could just go back to Federalism "Free and Independent States...." as intended. -Anymouse

All the New England States plus New York should secede. They could move the entire DC infrastructure to the new capital of the Union of Soviet Socialist States in Boston.

I think that would be enough to tip the Electoral College in our favor.

We would use the current U.S. Constitution, which shouldn’t be a problem since nobody is using it now.

We don't to e the United States the United States is several trillion dollars in debt from liberal excesses. I would be quite happy to accept the Free States of America though.
