The Wilton Democrats, like most liberals fantasizing about secession, seem unable to grasp the mechanics of their proposal. The people they want to secede from own all the guns. (I personally have about a dozen and would consider a lend-lease program if hostilities erupt.) What makes them think they will get to choose San Diego or the Pacific Coast if they begin an insurrection? To crib from a couple of their mentors, political power comes out of the barrel of a gun and just how many divisions does George Soros have anyway?

California is the nation writ small. Most of the coast is blue, the rest of the state is as red as South Carolina and we reds are not inclined to have our state turned into even more of an Animal Farm than it already is. If the left is really serious about a civil war we have plenty of room for them in the desert out back of the Sierra Nevada. FDR had the same idea in WWII, the only difference being most Japanese-Americans were a lot more loyal than today’s leftists. Maybe if the Hollywood goofballs were behind barbed wire in Manzanar I could afford to move in next door to Ben Stein in Malibu. My wife has always wanted a house on the beach; I just never thought I would have the opportunity to acquire it as plunder.

p>Incidentally, how did the pinkos get labeled “blue” and the normal people “red”? Does it refer to the color of our blood? br> — Brian Bonneau
