Nobody has said that. Actually, I pretty much said the opposite--that any normal liberal or conservative proposal would be good to consider. The issue is not that these guys are Republican--there are many fine Republican politicians in NH, and many fine Democrats. The issues is that these guys are anti-American.

Lies. I know these people and they are not anti American. They are anti corruption and anti tyranny and FOR freedom and fiscal responsibility. Secession bill sent a message.

The message that we are stupid?

And by definition, if you try to secede from America, you are anti-American... because it certainly isn't pro-American.

It's pretty clear that the Democrats are at war against those that refuse to accept we're a Democracy (even though we're a Republic). I've never seen this kind of hatred in my life! What we're experiencing now is what you get when you order a president through the mail. The Democrat Party is clearly becoming a lynch mob and anyone in their way will become a casualty to their demands... I'm glad they finally defeated Covid... but, should I thank their buddy Putin for this instead?

A presidential republic and democracy go hand in hand. From wiki:

The primary positions of power within a republic are attained through democracy or a mix of democracy with oligarchy or autocracy rather than being unalterably occupied by any given family lineage or group.

Democrats have nothing to do with my post--I cited the Republican NH House Speaker criticizing Mike Sylvia's secessionist views. Also, as cited in the article, when Sylvia talks "tyranny" he's attacking Republican Governor Sununu.

Also odd that you suggest Democrats are buddies with Putin during a week when President Biden has been resolute and all Democrats and most Republicans have been equally tough. Although several prominent Republicans have spoken admiringly of Putin...

It's all good with me if you want to criticize Democrats on specific stuff they've actually done. But let's not criticize Democrats for stuff that Republicans have done.
