"The recent standoff at the Bundy Ranch has raised a serious issue for many Americans that extends far beyond the issue of land management. The federal government maintains a right to preserve land for their usage, such as military installations, in states; however, the federal government claims dominion over, in some instances, the vast majority of land in a state.

The federal government has simply gotten too large and too intrusive. Worse yet, the manner in which they conduct themselves in defense of their asserted authority can only be characterized as “militant,” a scary notion for a republic built upon the premise of individual and states’ rights."

If push comes to shove in Nevada or Texas and Osama Obama was to “federalize” the Nevada or Texas National Guard would the Guardsmen follow orders?

The Regime’s overstepping on this may turn the bluish western and mountain states red (thinking NM and CO, in particular).

This story brings to mind the book by Tom Kratman (a FReeper) called A State of Disobedience.

The story is a play on the Waco tragedy except with a Texas governor who has a pair and who sends in the Guard to act against out of control Feds. And they act with extreme prejudice.

It's a cathartic read and I recommend it highly especially at a time like this.

Am I the only one who thinks Obama wants to incite a shooting war with the "right wingers' so he can pretend to be Lincoln and "save the union"?

I have family in this part of Texas. This sht does not set well with them....These tin-pot commissars and their ‘roided-up thugs in the Obamugabi Regime need to be dealt with harshly.
