 We are at war. You can pretend we can be one country again, but we can't.
The battle lines have been drawn and the troops are amassing on the field.

I hear many on DU who want common ground between us and the GOP. They want common ground between intelligent professors and inbred rednecks. Sorry, it isn't going to happen.

There is no chance to heal these wounds. Since Reagan, they have declared war on US. Remember "Government isn't the solution, it's the problem"?

That was code, saying we, the liberals, the progressives, the intelligent ones, the reason based community, are the problem and Lee Greenwood is the solution.

It was a declaration of war, although we didn't see it as such.

Fast forward to today - it's clear there's a war going on, and the minute we fight back, we get accused of provocation.

Some here want us to make nice with them. They want us to make nice with people who want minorities dead, women kept and our children indoctrinated with their fairy tales. They want us to make nice with people who think they can change reality just by belieiving in a different one. They want us to make nice with people who won't be happy until the middle class is long gone, and we're back in a feudal system.

Well I am here to say **** NICE!

I don't want common ground with these people.

I want a HIGHER ground from them, so if they are in my metaphorical cross hairs I can take them out like the pests they are. I want them gone, and I want them to be tossed to the scrapheap of history.

Do you know what these people think of you? Do you know what they call you behind closed doors - well you can probably guess because Rush has been doing it out in the open. But you women, women who want to make your own decisions - they think you are sluts. They think you are whores. They think you are less human than they are. They think you are incapable of making an intelligent decision.

They are aghast you would question their Iron and Bronze age moral code, and not do what they say. They also train other women to hate you, to view you in contempt.

Do me a favor. Google "Quiverfull Movement" right now. Then after that, google "The Phoenix and the Olive Branch." The latter is a blog run by a survivor of the Quiverfull movement, and she spills the beans on the Patriarchal Slavery that is Quiverfull.

Minorities - they do not believe you are Americans. Here, let me show you a line from De Niro's excellent movie "The Good Shepherd." Edward Wilson, a CIA operative is talking to a Mafioso who asks him what WASPS have to go back to, since the Italians have their families, etc.

Joseph Palmi: Let me ask you something... we Italians, we got our families, and we got the church; the Irish, they have the homeland, Jews their tradition; even the n****, they got their music. What about you people, Mr. Wilson, what do you have?

Edward Wilson: The United States of America. The rest of you are just visiting.

This is what they, the Republicans, think of you. This is how they view you. As visitors. You are not American.

This is what they really mean when they say Obama isn't an American.

It has nothing to do with laws, and everything to do with his skin color and ethnicity.

So play nice with these people?

Sorry, I don't negotiate with terrorists.

There is no common ground with these people because they refuse to consider any ground common ground.

They just want THEIR country back. But it isn't their country. It's OUR country.

Enough is enough. No more dealing with traitors. No more negotiating with the enemy.

We want OUR country back. Our country that was ruled by intellect not by superstition. Where government offered solutions to society's problems that only government could handle. Where education was valued for learning, not an opportunity for indoctrination. Where society moved ahead, not back to the Dark Ages.

Peace: It only counts when we get everything we want

I hate people who view me and my bretheren as non humans.

I hate them and want them to shut the **** up.

I hate them and hope they go away. Any way.

I am not a Christian, so loving your enemies is off my table.

If you want someone who loves his enemies, go see Michael Moore.

May be able to flesh it out in terms of fear and self-interest. Is that what we're saying?

I have neither hatred nor fear toward those being manipulated by powerful and greedy interests.

The only war worth fighting now is the war for economic justice. Once we accomplish that, much of this hatred and ignorance will fade away.

23. So we are at war and can't be one country again

because the minority group of the Democratic Party with extreme views cannot get along with the minority group of the Republican Party with extreme views?
I don't think so.

Your false intentionally misleading stereotypes of Republicans are just as silly as their stereotypes of Democrats.

Luckily, the vast majority are intelligent enough to know that neither extreme represents the beliefs and values of the average American.
And, luckily, this majority, filled with left leaning and right leaning Americans, will re-elect President Obama to his second term come November.

You're right, you f'n Marxist. There IS no common ground. There are two sides. The ones that want to take from others, and the ones that want to keep their earnings. You don't tell the person robbing your house, "Ok, we'll compromise. You take the radio, but leave me the TV". No, the only thing he takes from the house is the 3 rounds you've pumped into his chest, and damnit, if at all possible, I want those back from the coroner.

"intelligent professors"...Where do they hide them? I think I've seen a total of about three in a lifetime.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

Taverner is trying to win DOTY for 2012, isn't he? 

Again, divide up the country, Taverner.  You socialists, hippies, freaks, welfare moms, and lazy asses live in one half of the country.  The rest of us will live in the other half.  Your half won't survive because you won't have anyone to leech from.  You'll end up in a miserable heap of freeloading socialists whining, crying, and complaining. 

Our half will thrive because we will work, take care of our families, live responsibly, and take care of those of our own who truly need our help.  And we will be much happier people.  Oh, and we'll have all the guns. 

DUmmies are such dumbasses.

I have found that it is never a good thing to look to those who want to escape life in a drug induced haze for guidance.

How long have these idiots been threatening war?  The best they've done is to make a mess and then violently sob, after getting maced.  I wish they would just get on with it.  It would make for an interesting afternoon.

Guilty as charged, yer Honor.

Looks like Tavs has gotten some very non-mellow drugs in his system lately, he must've discovered meth...or maybe he ran completely out of drug money and that's the monkey on his back talking.

Taverner...you are not ready for war.

Our side  has the guns, the discipline and the resolve to fight.

Your side can't even dig a ditch without paying illegal aliens to do it for you.

Our side has been camping and hunting as a way of life. We can survive in the field.

Your side is lost two days march from the nearest drug dealer.

Taverner, you are unemployable, cannot pass a drug test to save your life, and your own family abandoned you.
You have failed at EVERYTHING in your life.
You certainly don't have the leadership skills needed to fight in  a war. And as a private I believe you would abandon your post, and desert.

You can only survive in a capitalist society, where compassion feeds you. Communists would have shot you long ago.

You want this to get violent? You're on. Your best bet is to try and get the south and flyover country to secede. We producers will NEVER get along with you moochers. Why? You offer NOTHING.

If so, you're a ****ing retard. Unlike that stupid ****ing Kenyan, they actually DO take that oath serious. How do I know? I was one, bitch.
