I don’t know. What form do you see a modern-day American civil war taking? That’s the frustration here.

If we cannot withstand name-calling, insults, and false accusations, we will find ourselves shackled by far worse.

Great post.

I was very pleased to see interstate highway signs plastered with the Obama “Joker” poster in Ohio.
Definitely made my day.
Great job Buckeyes!

The political classs will know that they will never lose office on the issues, only on personal scandal. The personal scandal can be controlled by the state-run media. The rulers are in for life, will never fear the masses, and can do as they please.

Frankly, I think we may already be at that point. With BamBam's election they saw they can be quite open about their socialism and still get elected (and/or reelected). The question is, then what? Are there enough people to "rise up" and stop it? Will they? How? What form does a modern-day American civil war take?

In other words, it makes civil war more likely to happen.

At this point it's all but a certainty.

What we are seeing right now is a cold version of a second civil war. But when a man who’s son has CP in Michigan was threatened at night by SEIU thugs, and warns he will protect his wife and son via self-defense, that is a first warning we are on our way to a hot civil war.

It is not a matter of if but when.

and we have no one for 2012. It is just Romney who is manipulating NH.

The only way to stop this is to literally be a landslide in 2010. (even Reid is out)

but now we have primary races where every peniles political wanabe thinks they can get elected by showing up.

Perhaps we need a “I am not a RINO” pledge.

What form does a modern-day American civil war take?

It starts with a war of assassins. It ends with a mass revolt / secession as TPTB attempt to disarm all Americans.

The President is in an awkward situation. The bankers-who elected him-cleaned out the Treasury...and the folks relying on what was there..for their Social Security benefits and Medicare benefits..are basically SOL...unless he can use the “HealthCare” bill as a way to make up the shortfall...in any way, shape or form.

Problem is...lets the banking boys off the hook without accoutability...screws the rest of America...and won’t solve the primary problem anyway....
