How bad would bad have to get before you went to war against your own country?

    That's a subcategory under "Libruhl," "atheists" and "reality TV."

    "Nissan Leaf" has a more indirect association. If you are in the "movement," you'd understand.

    Communists and the second one falls under atheists, high taxes (hurting Christmas sales and Christmas job creators), Jews, Mooslims and the Nissan Leaf.

    The armed forces academies run the option. They should MAKE all NFL teams run the option, after a required 10 year military commitment in Israel/Iraq/Afghanistan/Iran.

    The economy BACK? From what view, the upper 3 percent?
    Underemployment and unemployment numbers are way higher than what's being reported.

    But go ahead and believe the Demo talking points.

    I didn't say things were at that point YET, but they aren't good.
    Again, READ: The question was at what point would they become so bad would you consider it. Obviously with some of you there is no point, unless a radical right government takeover occurred and prayer WAS OK in the schools. You're part of the capitulating societal attitude that engulfs France.

    You make a compelling argument, Brian. Some good umbrella terms you listed above that encapsulate so much of what is wrong with America. This is truly the Uncertainty States Of America.

    How are "things" worse than in the Civil War/Reconstruction, the Great Depression, World War II, or Vietnam? Be specific.

    You did hint at income inequality, but I was not under the impression that income inequality is a huge issue for you. Aren't you a dyed-in-the-wool Republican?

    And what is keeping the unemployed masses calm, unlike during the Depression?

    Here's a hint It's called unemployment insurance. It's allowing people to still put some food in their kids' mouths, unlike the Depression, when it was fend for yourself. When people are hungry, they riot. When they have food in their stomachs, they can deal with other problems.

    And who has constantly been against unemployment insurance, all of the extensions? Here's another hint: It ain't liberals.

    I'm not convinced that printdust is a movement conservative idealogue. He goes to the income inequality well quite often. Poverty seems to be a concern for him. I wish he would stop being defensive long enough to spell out his ideology for us. I'm interested.
