Might have graduated. Might have passed the bar. Might be practicing. Might even be teaching Con Law, given how many for-profit colleges and law schools are out there.<br /> <br /><i> two former military officers</i><br /><br />Note he didn't say *commissioned* officers.<br /><br /><i>two former diplomats</i><br /><br />Guys who used to be in the State department. Somewhere.<br /><br /><i>a minister</i><br /><br />Volunteer youth minister? Leader of a storefront church with a congregation numbering firmly in the dozen?<br /><br /><i>another special operator</i><br /><br />Yastreblyansky got this one.<br /><br /><i> and experts on banking, energy, farming, and infrastructure </i><br /><br />A guy who worked at a bank, a guy who worked for a power company, a guy who worked on a farm, and a guy who dug ditches. Note that this could be as few as two people to merit the plural of expert.<br /><br />And that's the kind of expertise you bring together to agree that the right thing for true patriots to do is commit treason.jackdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15113600776477358833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1776456473941522431.post-74759873192396572382014-10-10T20:08:01.337-07:002014-10-10T20:08:01.337-07:00Hey, I live in Arizona!

Probably not, since even the dumbest wingnut is probably aware that occasionally one bit of western civilization has gone to war with another bit over whose cultural rules they were going to adopt. (Rules like "your religion is a capital crime" have been particularly popular flashpoints.)<br /><br />So he's probably not dumb enough to believe what he's implying here. I'm pretty sure that what he's doing instead is blowing a dog whistle. When he says "western civilization" means "white people", and "multiculturalism" means "non-white people".<br /><br />Not that there's any substantial overlap between white supremacism and secessionism, mind you. I'm sure it's a total coincidence.Robert M.noreply@blogger.com
