Question of the Day

Is it possible - in any way conceivable that the deep, deep, deep divisions in our country now, all the shouting outrage on all of the many sides of the so-called two sided debate between the right and the left could lead us as a nation to another civil war?

This is something I have been pondering for a few days. In that time, what seemed like a very strange idea has somehow seemed far more possible. And, even worse than our first Civil War, the "other side" in this war will seem far more crass, far more desirous of "the dark ages" than those who argued for the right to own people of a different skin color.
