What do you do in a marriage when one party is involved in constant adultery, treachery, and bent on complete domination of the other? The choice is usually either a divorce or a complete surrender to the abuser.

I want a divorce. The Liberals can have their East and Left coast enclaves and Sh!tcago. We'll take the rest.

There is no difference now between the left and libs. All the same...enraged without cause, violent and dangerous.

Yup! The Rats emulate a virus, that needs to be eradicated from time to time so that the body can rejuvenate and become healthy once again, before the next viral attack.

I would normally think there isn’t a person who would want to give up their freedom for the sake of an ideology,

There isn't.

Our opponents think that once most of "us" are dead, the rest in chains, that they will rule freely and absolutely, not realizing that once most of "us" are gone, they themselves will be on their way to the gulags.

“I don’t want to rain all over Prager’s parade, but just what in the he11 does he think winning this war will look like?”

You raise a good point. Even the putative “conservative” writers live in the same MSM bubble universe that all of their leftist writer colleagues populate. They all view things through a common filter, the “Beltway”. But Trump’s victory has shown us that these talking heads of the left or the right do not live in the world that the vast majority of middle Americans encounter everyday.

It’s gotten to the point that I don’t read anything or watch anything from any established “news” entity anymore. I get all of my information from a few carefully selected web sources that have shown themselves to be truthful and reliable. And I find I know more about current affairs than most people I encounter. We are living in a time unlike any other since the invention of the printing press; I call it the Internet Age.

Being a Southerner, I consider the War for Southern Independence to be a war between two distinct nations.

The way I see it is that there are wealthy and powerful globalist puppeteers who fund and direct “the left”, it’s agenda and it’s politicians in both parties. They are both foreign and domestic.

We need to cut the snake’s head off and the treasonous “left” collapses. If there comes a war, going for the globalist’s snake’s head would be the way to go.

Now that you mention it, 20+ years ago I was given an honorary membership in the Thomas Hobbs Camp (Athens, AL). I was born in Cincinnati, but my ancestors are from Kentucky, so they were kind enough to forgive my Yankee roots.}8^D

Anyway,I moved from North Alabama to the Birmingham area in 97, and other interests took priority. In the meantime, I got into genealogy and found that I have pretty deep CSA roots on Dad's side. Lost a couple of great-great uncles in The Cause, plus another one was a state rep in Kentucky who fled the state because authorities were after him for recruiting for the South. He wound up in Virginia and served in the Confederate House of Representatives for the duration.

Anyway, you've reminded me that I need to renew those old ties (moved back to Athens last year) and also upgrade my membership. Thanks!

so the delegates from the states of VA, NC, SC, and GA were in fact not signatories to the Constitution of the United States in September of 1787...?

Gee, who knew...?
