The liberal Brits are with us Blue Americans.

From blogger Glovefox (whose site is retricted), an email documenting that fact that Liberal Britain goes into depression and shock as it sides with the Blue States of America.
We are not alone.
And, just for more to ponder, a couple of relevant quotes:

“The National Government will regard it as its first and foremost duty to revive in the nation the spirit of unity and cooperation. It will preserve and defend those basic principles on which our nation has been built. It regards Christianity as the foundation of our national morality, and the family as the basis of national life.”
— Adolph Hitler, 1933
(Proclamation to the German Nation at Berlin,
February 1, 1933).

(I think I’ll put the above in my sidebar.)
“When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle.”
— Edmund Burke

Heh. Just found some other Hitler quotes that seems uniquely appropriate to what we just witnessed from the GOP:
All propaganda has to be popular and has to adapt its spiritual level to the perception of the least intelligent of those towards whom it intends to direct itself.”
— Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, Vol. I

I believe today that I am acting in the sense of the Almight Creator by warding off the Jews. I am fighting for the Lord’s work.
— Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf

The radicalization of the rest of us

P. Diddy may have stolen my years-old “VOTE OR DIE!” slogan and pimped himself all over the media as a result, but that’s okay, I’ve got a new one, although it’s not quite as sublime.
Push back, or get the Hell out of my way.

So ends b!X’s eloquent essay about his (and Portland’s) response to the election results. Be sure to follow the links, especially this one and this one for some graphically appropriate statements.
His links show that I’m not the only one advocating seceding from the broken Union. And maybe the time is coming to seriously think about moving to the proposed Republic of Cascadia.

More than five decades of pushing back has made for a tiring political effort to keep America from falling off the Righteous edge, but, hey, there’s a dance in the ol’ dame yet.
And so I’ll still be pushing — only now even harder.
