Blue States Secede? Make My Day
By John Kudla

It was a bit of a surprise to read tweets from Lanny Davis, the famous attorney and associate of Bill and Hillary Clinton, detailing the possible secession of the blue states from the rest of the country.  You can read portions of the sequence of tweets here or here.

This may be Lanny's way of venting Democrat frustration. Despite every dirty trick the left has employed, Trump is still president and may continue to be through 2024.  Okay, if you red-state rubes will not kneel before us, we will pick up our socialist toys and create a country of our own!

To be clear, this is not a threat of civil war.  It is more like a family law attorney telling the unappreciated wife what she can expect out of the divorce.  For example, Davis claims that the new country will get the following states:

Hawaii, Oregon, California, New Mexico, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, and all the Northeast ... including Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, and Washington D.C.

Nope.
That was then, this is now.
Whole different time. Whole different country.
I wonder how many young'uns couldn't even name three states that were part of the Confederacy?

We're soon going to find out how "settled" things are vis-a-vis what happened back then.

Does the current communist insurgency, backed by a communist takeover of one of the major parties and almost all of the media and academia, strike you as being "settled" yet...?

Ironic isn't it?

The states comprised of the Confederacy seceded because the federal government became intrusive of the rights given the states within the Constitution.

The states within this article wish to secede because the federal government is not intrusive enough.

No punishment, in my opinion, is too great, for the man who can build his greatness upon his country's ruin~  George Washington

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
