If you listen, you can here the rustle of dis-content. Is this the sound heard in 1858-9 when Southerners were becoming unhappy with the tax burdon. Is this the sound that echoed the election of Lincoln as president? Has Obama caused the same sound. Some will say that the South is just ajusting to the change of a black leader, but is the change he brings of liberal government and taxation, the straw that Patriots who love freedom and hate taxes will have to react. Will we be able to wait 4 years, until he has put us under the greatest tax burdon in all History?
In Texas many of the leaders of the Texas Regiments were in the front, calling for the state to break with the union. Many felt that Texas had the freedom to do this because of treaty of annexation that joined us to the US. We had been a sovern Nation. We had the right. Many say that today. This point could be debated, but no one will listen.
The Constitution gave all states this right, but the Civil War set an ugly reality. The Union, those states that did not break away, needed the raw product of the states that did. Today the lines are different. It might not be the Mason / Dixon line, but the Blue versus Red States. There might be great resistance of Rural areas versus the large Cities. That in itself will create caios. (The God of Spelling and Grammer does not seem to be with me today, so please forgive my mistakes.)
The strength of the South would lay in the spliting of Union states and in dividing places like New York from California, thus adding even mor problems for the Liberal leaders. Would they cause Martial Law and send the Military against the population to prevent splits. Lincoln did, so I am sure Obama, would also. The city states would crumble quickly without food, fuel, etc., that could be withheld or delayed. Who would fight who?The make up of the military services is mixed and would spit along state and city lines, but the government would fight the lower grade soldiers trying to go home. This is in micro, the problem of the whole government. The greatest benefit to all government would be the loss of the burdon of paying for the people who live from the government. People like myself who retired on government retirements would be big loosers. We would suffer greatly, because the young do not have the respect for their parents like that in the 1800's. I would survive. There are deer and we could plant and gather food, but others in the cities would suffer. Again the Cost to the New Confederacy would be great, because the ones who care would be those leaving the Changing Government. The Obama government would have food riots, again, like New York in the 1860's. The Confederacy would share and barter. I like this new arrangement, allready.
The Government will fight any skeem to do that described above. Unlike the 1860's there is not the cohesive stength of a group of close states. Even today, the National Guard practices urban fighting, so that they can go to Iraq and fight in the cities. But will some one try to use it at home. We have allready seen the ATF and FBI break into homes in Florida to do the governments will. We have seen disadent compounds destroyed. And who determines which element is the threat. Is it the Sons of the Confederacy Veterans or the United Daughters of the Confederacy or the many patriotic organizations that will fight Socialism or communism.
My own kids are my enemy. Daily they are tought the government is good, for it gives and it takes away. Public education is riddled with social and liberal teachings mixed up with green to make garbage. Which way will they go? Are they like Hitler Youth? Will they become Obama Youth?
Enough. Where is the Country of my youth, where freedom rang and patritism was rampant. Baby boomers had not gone through their '60's Cultural Revolution. We still loved our WWII Soldiers, and the streets were safe. Please Dear and Loving God, protect us from ourselves.
Did the Sons of Texas go through this. Few thought their homes would be lost because of the war. In Texas they were right, but in Tennessee, Georgia, Virginia and the Carolinas, many parents were lost in battle, and families destroyed along with homes, towns and country.
