Problem with splitting the country into Red & Blue is that they would invade us

[BlueStateSaint]

It'd be just too damn easy!

Tell me how this is a problem . . .

Tell me how this is a problem . . .  

I at least give ground squirrels a chance by shootin' 'em at 200 yds! The way liberals bunch together, it'd be worse than shootin' fish in a barrel!

Where's the sporting chance?

ETA: ( I guess we could use "over the shoulder boulder holders", in order to give 'em a chance... )

But you know that they would give us a similar chance.   Turnabout is fair play.  So, once again, tell me where this is a problem . . .

I'd love for 'em to give me a "chance"! Right now, mending from having a Doctor up to his elbows in my abdominal cavity, it would allow me to take out a few frustrations!

Besides, I'm of the opinion if you walked up to a dozen of 'em and yelled BOO!, they'd scatter like mice under a hay bale when you turn it over!

I actually fail to see how they could injure us, but you're right, if they could, they'd stab us in the back every time, then run away, so we could see the yellow stripe that runs down their back! The only difference between a skunk and a DUmmie is the color of the stripe!

...for you lurkers, a hammer short of a sack, it means y'all are frikkin' cowards!

Walter Williams weighs in on the issue:

http://townhall.com/columnists/WalterEWilliams/2010/04/07/parting_company

Here's the question asked in my September 2000 column titled "It's Time To Part Company": "If one group of people prefers government control and management of people's lives and another prefers liberty and a desire to be left alone, should they be required to fight, antagonize one another, risk bloodshed and loss of life in order to impose their preferences or should they be able to peaceably part company and go their separate ways?"

The problem that our nation faces is very much like a marriage where one partner has broken, and has no intention of keeping, the marital vows. Of course, the marriage can remain intact and one party tries to impose his will on the other and engage in the deviousness of one-upsmanship. Rather than submission by one party or domestic violence, a more peaceable alternative is separation.

I believe we are nearing a point where there are enough irreconcilable differences between those Americans who want to control other Americans and those Americans who want to be left alone that separation is the only peaceable alternative. Just as in a marriage, where vows are broken, our human rights protections guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution have been grossly violated by a government instituted to protect them. The Democrat-controlled Washington is simply an escalation of a process that has been in full stride for at least two decades. There is no evidence that Americans who are responsible for and support constitutional abrogation have any intention of mending their ways.

The Great Fall may just be the impetus to give us that separation.

Give the leftists California, Seattle, New England and wall them off.

12. If Right-Wing Nation X tried to invade Liberal Nation, I can envision every progressive nation
   
in the world coming over to help us out. Canada, the UK, France, Germany, Denmark, Belgium, Norway, Sweden, New Zealand, etc

You can hope BUTT what you and your burnt-out hippie comrades would soon find out is that your imaginary liberal friends in Canada, France, etc. have ZERO interest in getting killed while defending a bunch of old burnt-out stoner hippie Americans.
Thus your Saturday Matinee revolution would be extremely short lived.

We may just have to go the Texas route and shoot the philanderer to end the marriage.
