The liberals are consummate hypocrites on the matter of secession and local resistance to the central government. In the 1990s, the Clinton administration supported the secession of Slovenia, Croatia, and Bosnia-Herzogovina from Yugoslavia. The Obama administration is currently supporting a two state solution for the Palestinian issue, carving out a Palestinian state from Israel's post-1967 territory. There is also hypocrisy in liberals’ attitude toward states' rights. The sanctuary cities movement and the state level legalization of so-called medical marijuana, attempts to nullify Federal immigration law, are justified in a manner similiar to what Southern segregationists used in the 1950s and 1960s to justify resistance to Federally enforced integration of public accommodations. The Second Vermont Republic movement is dominated by the sort of leftists who hold anti-GATT and World Bank protests and espouse environmental purism.

He didn’t say that when Vermont had a state house motion made to secede.

[DeLaine]

The libs don’t want to give up their power.

The liberals are consummate hypocrites on the matter of secession and local resistance to the central government.

You can say that again. They're all for a seceded Hispanic Southwest, secession by "Native Americans," and the Left has even supported the idea of a seceded Southern Black confederacy.

The answer, as always, lies in the Hegelian dialectic. If it helps the "thesis" to perform its "historic mission," they're all for it. If it helps the "antithesis" impede that "mission," they're against it.
