This thread is a joke. That's not surprising since the modern-day American conservative movement has become a joke once it was hijacked by ignorant (at best) and ill-informed and immature reactionaries (at best) who exhibit behavior reminiscent of a child in the throes of a temper tantrum.
If conservatives were children (not a bad comparison since they act like spoiled kids), they would be given a time out. If this was 40 years ago, they'd get a spanking, and deservedly so.
At any rate, this incessant and insipid nonsense is like a damn carnival show or a WWE wrestling match where the people who run the show make money off the stupidity of the the followers who swear by every utterance of media loons like Mark Levin who manages to feather his nest quite nicely on the gullibility of his listeners who hang on his every word like he isn't merely the partisan hack he accuses everyone else of being when they don't subscribe to his ridiculous views. That's when other people become the focus of Levin's rambling tirades very much like a Mussolini or that Austrian fella with the funny mustache.
For the most part, these yahoos are lily-livered chicken-shits who don't have the courage of their convictions because they make a lot of noise but never do anything but stir the pot. However, if this crowd ever managed to organize themselves into some kind of real threat to the nation by staging some kind of a coop, any president would be duty bound under the US Constitution (that conservatives claim to revere even though they're always talking about changing it) to protect and defend the US Constitution and public safety by arresting these people and putting them on trial for treason which is basically exactly what they're guilty of advocating with all their talk of succession and revolution.
Come on, folks. Let's get some bang for our tax dollars out of those FEMA camps. Let's round these disgruntled pissants up and send them to Alaska where they can bow at the feet of Sarah Palin close up like they so often do when she releases one of her statements in the mass media. Then the lot of them can join the Alaskan Independence Party and start their conservative Utopia where they will finally get the chance of fulfilling their dream of becoming the rugged individualists they seem to perceive themselves to be. I just wonder how long it would be before they called wanting to come back home to the good ol' USA like a bunch of kids who are homesick while away at summer camp. Undoubtedly it wouldn't take any longer than the first time they find there's no city services or perhaps when their satellite feed fails due to a blizzard and FOX News stops being broadcast into their homes and someone has the temerity to suggest that they actually read a book that has literary merit.
There's something else that could do it too. Once some of the policies they support were finally put into place, they would find how much different life would be once large oil companies like Exxon/Mobile stopped paying taxes into the Alaskan treasury for the rights to exploit the vast Alaskan oil and gas reserves which actually belong to the people of Alaska (and the USA). That drop in State revenue would be a boon for the profits of big oil, but it wouldn't do shit for the average Alaskan because it would decimate public services and educational opportunities for the future generations. Just watch what would happen if and when these new immigrants found out they actually relied on the public services which that always used to lampoon as wasteful spending.
At any rate, my opinion is that the rest of us should just tell them to pound sand, buck up, and stop their incessant whining because they finally got what they wanted.
'nuff said!
