Kick the Liberals Out and Reset the Constitution

With members of the ultra-left Middlebury Institute sitting down with members of the League of the South, who are devoted to more limited government, and the two discussing plans for leaving the United States, the topic of secession has once again become just slightly more popular dinner conversation than how much lint Aunt Carla found in her belly button last night. Both groups, despite their divergence on almost everything else political, want to be able to leave the United States peacefully.

The liberals, of course want to leave because they are tired of living in a nation that actually defends itself, its allies and its interests around the globe and is constantly pushing back against their nanny state plans for everyone. The League of the South wants to leave because it is tired of the over burdening regulation that has piled up in Washington over the years because of these same liberals they are now rubbing elbows with. They both see secession as the only way to solve this problem. They both want to leave but I say that if you truly believe in limited government, and our Constitution, you don't want to secede.

What you need to do is simply agree to kick the liberals out or, in the case of the leftists in Vermont, let them walk away.

If people like those that are members of the Second Vermont Republic want to try yet another failed experiment in Marxism I say let them. And while they are at it they can take New York, California, Michiganistan, The Kennedy Empire (formerly known as Massachusetts), Washington, New Jersey and Oregon with them. Heck, we'll even throw in Hawaii so they can actually have some place in liberal la-la land that people will actually want to visit for a couple days each year. Until they manage to run it into the ground and turn it into the next Cuba that is.

But there is no reason to want to leave the United States yourself IF you truly believe in the founding principles of the American Republic. You know, radical things such as all men created equal, unalienable rights, limited government and all that good stuff which are spelled out clearly in our founding documents.
