Idiots desire south to seceed in order to form new country to be called "Reagan." These people are seriously demented and deranged...and of course it's the south, so, inherently racist.

Anyone who actually sees this as enough of a possibility to fret over is every bit as demented and deranged as those calling for the secession.

I don't fret over this obsession with portraying and idolizing Reagan as something he was not. I just find it petty. I never said a word when a local stretch of road here was named after Reagan but when this city recently built a new bridge and anointed it with MLK legacy status the local forums were rife with nasty racial overtones even though MLK could arguably be said to have had a more positive and far reaching impact on the history of this country than Reagan will ever know.

Then it must be a predominantly conservaive area. If it were predominantly liberal area it would be the opposite.

I agree King that had a more positive and far reaching impact. For the life of me I don't see why some conservatives dote on Reagan as if he were their lord and savior. That does not make me anti-Reagan in any way, just that Reagan is yesterday's news by an entire generation. Time to move on.

This is a highly concentrated Conservative area. I move around a lot, something to do with my mental issues, and I always seem to end up right smack in the middle of Conservative strongholds, and I never have a problem. I don't argue with people, I don't get in trouble. I just live my life and observe quietly. This little community last year even had a local retailer put up a big neon flashing sign depicting Obama with a Hitler mustache, less than 1000 feet from my front door, sponsored by the LaRouche Party, with a small contingent of Tea Party locals vocalizing their support before the owner of the property the store was located on demanded that it be removed saying it is inconsistent with community values. But if you research, you will see that this area of Indiana, Ft Wayne and surrounding communities such as mine, all vote Conservative.

Consider the source; someone who speaks of any red state and probably blue states with some red sate qualities as if they were part of Nazi Germany.

You cant name a new country "Reagan Country" anyway. It just wouldnt work as a name.

It would have to be something like: "The Christian Republic of Reaganistan".

a house divided upon itself cannot stand. IMHO America as a united nation is living on borrowed time. there is just too much contention, too many different and conflicting interests.

in my own state, mason county is the equivalent of texas and missisippi and florida all rolled into one. I wish it would be sucked out of the ground and shipped off to mars, with me left behind.

Here in the east side of Washington where I live (the more conservative side, I might add), Stevens county is where the right wing loons live. It was from there that that racist piece of sh*t came from who tried to set off a bomb in downtown Spokane during the MLK march.

I wish seattle was here and Shelton was there [where seattle is now].
