If at first you don't secede, try, try again.

They won;t, biggest threat to secede is texas, and thats isn't going happen.

I think it'd be a very American way to bring about the end of the empire.

Because you talk or think exactly like some French Leftist who is Anti americanist to the Core , go to any french political forum , and you will understand what i am talking about .

Quote:

Anti-Americanism, often Anti-American sentiment, is criticism, opposition, or hostility toward the culture or people of the United States.[1] In practice, a broad range of attitudes and actions critical of or opposed to the United States have been labeled anti-Americanism. Thus, the applicability of the term is often disputed.[2] Contemporary examples typically focus on opposition to United States policy, though historically the term has been applied to a variety of concepts.

I think you'd be hard pressed to find one solitary instance of me criticizing the American people or their culture in any way. In fact I'd love to see it if you could.

The problem is you confuse not accepting the decisions of a very small group of people in power with criticizing American culture and the American people. And really comparing me to any leftist is kinda silly. I'm a devout believer in the principles this country was founded on, unfortunately those principles don't mix with the any of the ideas of Neo-Conservatives or Democratic Socialists. Sorry.

Secession is entirely American. Just how do you think this country started?

Your grand grand grand parents fought that war , to keep the country united.

Did they die for nothing ? i am sure that how they feel if YOU want it split .

RedScott · 10-04-2007, 07:57 AM

Oh did the country start at that war? I thought it was before that...

**ashumann12** · 10-04-2007, 10:51 AM

I would love to see the US go back to its constitutional roots. We just have to fix all we have damaged since then, and honestly, I daon't know how to accomplish that at this time.

It didn't start at that war , but that war won by the union soldiers kept the country united and strong .

RedScott · 10-04-2007, 11:42 AM

I see. So maybe we would have all been better off then if the British beat the secessionist colonies and we were all part of that united stronger British union.

mimo2005 · 10-04-2007, 12:03 PM

RedScott · 10-04-2007, 12:07 PM
