Conservative Author Wants Southern States To Secede Over Gay Rights, And Name New Country ‘Reagan’

Posted by | October 22, 2014 14:45 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics Top Stories


Conservative columnist and former Reagan administration aide Douglas MacKinnon is out with a new book calling for Southern states to secede again, and this time, he has a nifty new name for his vision of a Conservative utopia: “Reagan”.

On Janet Mefferd’s show, he spoke about his book, “The Secessionist States of America: The Blueprint for Creating a Traditional Values Country…Now,” and called for a movement of states, starting with South Carolina, Georgia and Florida, to establish a new country, Right Wing Watch reports.

Texas, MacKinnon explained, was not included in his secessionist blueprint because “there have been a number of incursions into Texas and other places from some of the folks in Mexico.”

He added that the South had “seceded legally” and “peacefully” during the Civil War, but greedy Northerners like President Lincoln “waged an illegal war that was in fact not declared against the South after the South basically did what we’re talking about in this book now in terms of peacefully, legally and constitutionally leaving the union.”

MacKinnon thinks the South will rise again and he wants to name it “Reagan,” an idea which should go over as well as ReaganBook, the Conservative alternative to Facebook which didn’t even last 24 hours.

Gay rights was specifically pointed out as a reason MacKinnon wanted Southern states to create their new country, thus leaving America, like any good patriot would do.

MacKinnon called the Civil War,“The War Between The States,” and said that Religious Right activists should endorse the secessionist movement as a way to “protect our faith.”

In his column, he points to what he calls an “unhinged bias against the Christian faith.” The persecuted man does not mention what he’ll do with the gay community living in the South, or minorities, or all of those delicious federal dollars afforded to Southern States.

Reagan, it’s a whole ‘nother country:

If the South tries to rise again, we’ll just burn it to the ground again.

    Sorry, but I don’t want to live next to Reaganstan….they’ll have to come up with a better name…

    • Larry Schmitt October 22nd, 2014 at 17:02

      How about Boringstan? Everyone is exactly the same, no individuality, no interesting people, they all conform to a list of do’s and don’ts.

        Lemmingistan….Dipshitistan…Gunnutland…

    • forpeace October 22nd, 2014 at 17:10

      How about the Republic of Reaganistan?

      • Foundryman October 22nd, 2014 at 17:13

        Nah…We have enough reminders of that misfit Reagan regime….

        • forpeace October 22nd, 2014 at 17:20

          If all these states secede together, Texas can lead the way, and it is easier to call it:

          Teapublic of Texagistan.

          They can elect the convicted felon Rick Perry as the king.

        If this were to actually happen, trust me, it would not be a republic.

      How about “The Welfare States of America”

      • Foundryman October 22nd, 2014 at 17:24

        For a group trying to destroy and divide America, they’ll never want that name.

        • Jake October 22nd, 2014 at 17:35

          For a group who rely so heavily on our hard-earned tax-dollars they deserve that name.

    It would be one way to get Penn. Ohio, Mich and Wis back to blue…I vote yes..

    They can secede together, under one condition, they have to take Alaska with them.

    They can use Half Governor’s Alaskan Hillbillies family as their Army because they are so good in getting involved in a violent fights.

    Texas can lead the way.

    They can call their new country: “Teapublic of Texagistan.”

    They can even keep the convicted felon Rick Perry as their king.

    Woo hoo, go ahead, all us liberals will live up north and don’t you cry about lack of food or medicine, put on your big people panties and figure out how to do for yourself. I say we have a huge celebration with all the money we save cause we no longer will have to bail them out.

    • Larry Schmitt October 22nd, 2014 at 18:16

      And of course all those big military bases with all their jobs and billions of dollars into the economy will have to be moved back to the US. Who’s gonna pay all that unemployment? Their first official act will be to apply for a loan from the World Bank and IMF. Which will have to be forgiven, because they will default.

      • Khary A October 22nd, 2014 at 18:18

        Those idiots are under the assumption that the soldiers will just stay and fight for them and everything. They really have no idea how it all works do they?

        NASA & NOAA wouldn’t be staying in the South, or forecasting hurricanes in TeaKlanistan either!

    They tried that once before and it didn’t work out to well.

    • straightawaykid February 20th, 2015 at 18:57

      That is correct, we need another hero like General Sherman to burn another path through the confederates that they still remember.

    So, with all the republican presidents, they thought Ronald “Bonzo Goes to College” Reagan was the most worthy? If he’s the best they have, I’d hate to see the worst.

      It’s a close race with the decider.
