Indeed. Vote 3rd Party, ANY 3rd party... but by moving to someplace together and being even moderately active will help even more... voting isn't just enough, sadly.

Those supporting Libertarians (and other assorted liberty-centric parties such as the Constitution party) should consider the
Free State Project, and move to New Hampshire. We're already having an effect here.

The religious zealots can move to South Carolina Similarly, the Greens could move to Oregon... Florida can remain a neutral zone, where all the aging folks will migrate toward once the little red light on their palms starts blinking. (joke)

Vote with your feet, not just your ballot.

"It is a better group to defend than homosexuals or blacks."

Oh please let me guess; You work with "a" homosexual and you grew up with "a" black.

"People are going to mark this as a troll."

You mispelled "bigot."

"But it seems like every small group has extra rights."

Yeah those pesky blacks wanting to have the extra right to vote and be treated equally. And those pesky homos wanting that extra right to be married like everyone else.

"The majority meanwhile is getting sued by these small pest groups."

I mean really, why not let the majority overrule the rights of those minority pests who are not like you? I am sure the Constitution makes this MANDATORY!

"Homosexuals sue to get married, which is an act under GOD and not man."

Which GOD? Hindu GOD, Deist GOD, Christian GOD, Muslim GOD, Progressive Christian GOD, Reactionary Christian GOD, Catholic GOD, Baptist GOD, and by the way, by exactly what means have you divined what this GOD supposedly wants and doesn't want?

"Anyone know of any??"

Sure do. You should join the rest of your lily white klan as they migrate to South Carolina, secede from the Union and institute their own little theocracy. Some of us obviously haven't spent enough years living in the Dark Ages yet.

I wonder what the fine folks over at christianexodus.org would say about all of this once they take over a state or two...

What about the Christians? They're not claiming to be akin to a Bush state, they're basically trying to CREATE a Bush state.

Don't forget South Carolina, which has also been targeted for take-over and secession.

Look up Christian Reconstructionism. Look up Rushdoony. Google is your friend. Christian Reconstrutionism is the core of the mass movement you couldn't find. The exoteric term for this is "the Religious Right". I presume you've heard of them? How far have they gotten in the past 20 years?

"All these atrocities continue in spite of the fact that we now have the 'right' people in places of power. Indeed, the occupant of the White House is a professing Christian. The U.S. Attorney General is believed to be a devout Christian. 'Conservatives' control both Houses of Congress, and Republican presidents appointed seven of the nine Supreme Court justices. Christian activists placed the right party in power, but are we now witnessing the return to moral and constitutional government that we have demanded for so long?"

This is from Christian Exodus explaining why they want to take over a state because they've effectively taken over the national government and the New Millenium hasn't started yet, i.e. the nation hasn't converted to an Old Testament legal regime comparable to sharia law quite yet. Their problem of their political leadership is that little things like the Constitution and the Bill of Rights have been standing in their way, though the work of dismantling is in progress. In the above, "conservative" and Christian mean "Religious Right"... those are the only people the Christian Reconstructionists recognize as real fellow Christians. Every one of the last several Presidents, Democratic and Republican have been "professing Christians". But except for George W Bush, not their kind of Christian.

• Here are some interesting quotes that explain why some people are very concerned. You wouldn't think that responsible citizens would seriously discuss the return of slavery, would you? Don't bother with the TOC at the top, just scroll down the page.
• Here's a pretty good historical document on Christian Reconstructionis
• You've probably heard of at least some of these people.
• Where tax-exempt right-wing foundation money is going. Look towards the bottom of the list of people they've been funding. There are some very interesting Europeans on that list. More about these interesting people.
