I can't say that secession has become mainstream in conservative politics, since among conservatives WND is seen as being crazy, but WND does have some following and it shows the creeping acceptance of secession into conservative politics.

There are left-wing secessionists also. When a person calls for secession I don't think they can at the same time claim to be patriotic.

Incidentally if you are wondering why gay rights have gained such wide support even though gays are about 3% of the population the answer is simple.

One of the primary and core ideas of the gay liberation movement was to get gays and Lesbians to be out of the closet. A slogan at gay marches was "Out of the Closet and Into the Streets."

As a result Gay people have parents, siblings, relatives, friends, co-workers, neighbors, associates, who know that they are gay and they usually want to see that gay people are treated fairly.  When you consider all these people as a percentage of the population is is substantial.

Also, a lot of people who don't know any gays don't see the value in being a bigoted jerk.

Kirkpatrick's article is particularly crazed.
