Third US Revolution?

I had to create this separate blog from my other rants, because in light of what has been happening recently I think this needs its own forum.

The title of the blog was the rallying cry for the US Revolution. Listen to Metallica's "Don't Tread On Me" to get the gist of what it means.

I am fed up with the US government. I am fed up with the Dummycrats and Retardicans, and that non-PC name calling is putting it nicely because it assumes no malice in their motives, only stupidity. The USA is not the USA anymore, and is not even close to what the Founding Fathers put together. If Barack Obama wins the election, we will be the USSA - United SOCIALIST States of America - might as well add a hammer and sickle to the flag! And it might be the same thing with McCain! I'm voting Libertarian this year - at least I'll be able to sleep at night with a clear conscience.

Some call the Civil War the Second US Revolution - basically the South fighting a war of independence against the north. The Civil War did not become about ending slavery until two years in or so, when Lincoln needed a rallying cry. Until that point, it was about the North telling the South what to do - it was about the rights of the southern states, and their ultimate right to secede from the Union if they chose to do so. To me, it sounds an awful lot like today's conflict between the city-elitists and the country-pragmatists - the snobs of the city and the ordinary people of the countryside that make it work - the Coasts and Fly-Over Country. Take a look at the election map this November - not state by state but by geographic area. I guarantee that the cities will be the blue spots on the map, and the rest of the countryside red - kind of like how the US looks at night in a satellite photo. Except this year there's almost no difference between the D's and the R's.

I think a Third US Revolution might be coming. The good, hard-working, freedom-loving people of this country are not going to take it much longer. If the Supreme Court continues its idiocy and grab for power and rules that the Second Amendment does not apply to individuals and is not an individual right, I predict a march on Washington, perhaps even an armed march. As George Washington said (paraphrased), "The Second Amendment is second only to the First - it is Liberty's teeth." The Second Amendment is there to protect us citizens against our government.

More later, of course, because my daughter is getting into stuff.
