“...My personal preference is a restoration of the constitutional values of limited government that made us a great nation.”
Amen, and I do believe that is the preference of all my fellow FReepers as well.

"Article I, Section 8 of our Constitution lists the activities for which Congress is authorized to tax and spend. Nowhere on that list is there authority for Congress to tax and spend for: Medicare, Social Security, public education, farm subsidies, bank and business bailouts, food stamps and thousands of other activities that account for roughly two-thirds of the federal budget. Neither is there authority for congressional mandates to citizens about what type of health insurance they must purchase, how states and people may use their land, the speed at which they can drive, whether a library has wheelchair ramps, and the gallons of water used per toilet flush. The list of congressional violations of both the letter and spirit of the Constitution is virtually without end. Our derelict Supreme Court has given Congress sanction to do just about anything for which they can muster a majority vote.
James Madison, the acknowledged father of the Constitution, explained in Federalist Paper No. 45: "The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce. ... The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives and liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement and prosperity of the State." Amen, amen, amen. I've been trying to hammer these points home for a long, long time.

What was once far-fetched is gettin’ real.
The “split” scenario is surfacing more and more into the mainstream. I’d vote to seceed apart from the Obama-voting fag-marriage states in a split second.

Liberty loving conservative Christian valued Americans can get along fine without liberals, and prosper doing it.
Conversely liberals wouldn’t survive a year without us.

70% of Americans have no confidence in the government, but
will continue to demand and accept their government
handouts.

Is there any divorced Freeper who regrets his or her divorce?
I doubt it.
To: GeronL
Correct. They are not content to let people live as they wish. They must FORCE their will on others.
The country is divided between the big government liberals on the east and west coasts and those who believe in liberty in the rest of the country.

Problem is that without big changes that reign in all three branches of government, that isn’t going to happen. The two solutions I see are a constitutional convention and secession.

Considering what would likely happen at a ConCon, secession and revolution would be sure to follow.

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for
one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with
another,
Americans have become so politically and culturally divided, for example, if you aren't revolted by Pajamaboy you are as foreign to me as a heart ripping Aztec, that we should consider ourselves separate and distinct peoples. Separate people that need separate governments and separate countries.

You're not wrong, workerbee, but the ultimate point of Marxism has very little to do with economics, everything to do with punishment and murder.
