I'd venture to say there are secessionist groups in most states. Remember the Montana Freeman? Plus when I was living in Hawaii, there was a group there that wanted to break off. This isn't unique to Obama. But you have more media venues than ever before, with the internet, so, you hear more about it.
I'm a states rights guy. If a state wants to leave the Union, then let them. However, they've got to give back all of the federal money, military, and civil projects that were paid for first.
I don't think you'd see to many states willing to do that.
yeah and let the feds pay back all the money they took from that state to pay them back only maybe 40% of it while they stole 60% of it. the feds have no money only what they steal from us period.

What it really says is that a black man winning the White House brings out the absolute worst in the sore losers.

Of course. It couldn't possibly have anything to do with policy could it? Sorry, but I am sick of this lame excuse. Every time there is a thread that seems to criticize Obama in any way, someone jumps in and cries "Racism" Careful, if you keep using the same excuse it will lose it's vitality before two years of this presidency is up. Be conservative, pick and choose when you will play the race card. Because it just isn't an excuse every time someone has something to say about Obama. I bet George wishes he would have used the "race card" more often when he was in office. "You guys just don't like me because I'm white, it has nothing to do with my ignorance and lies!"

If you keep using the same excuse that "it's Obama's fault" when clearly the country is suffering from eight years of neglect and mismanagement, then you can't be taken seriously on any level.
Explain the unprecedented anger and frothing-at-the-mouth rage from the far right in terms of policy if you have any real argument. The man's been in office barely six months after inheriting a total disaster from his predecessor. And yet, we hear the constant outcry of socialism and deficits, when for the past eight years, we've had tremendous deficits that weren't even fully revealed to the public until after Obama took office. Remember Obama a couple of months back placing the previouly "hidden" costs of the Iraq conflict in public view as part of the overall deficit?
Who spent that money on Iraq?
Why are those on the far right being so dishonest about this move towards openess in government, blaming this additional cost as "Obama's spending?"
And this is just one example.
Go ahead. Explain these irrational, hyperpartisan, hateful responses in terms of policy.
