Lighter note...
I am way looking forward to the movie too.
Yikes...
(for some reason, I read the above in Mr. Pitts' Hitler-esque voice about Moland Water )
Close our military bases there... set up border checks... let them build a giant wall to keep our homosexual abortion/gun free agenda out... give them what they want... a return to the 1950s as depicted on television.... you know, the one that never actually existed.
Hail, Hail!!!
Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned...
I AM MINE
New York is puzzling... I thought the Confederates hated the New Yorkers.
Maybe it's the 1 percenters living in New York that want to be the Kings of the NASCARians... i don't know. Seems odd, though.
Hail, Hail!!!
That's true, huh?
Nevermind on the letting them go thing.
Hail, Hail!!!
Just going on track record.
Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York....
Those states all voted for President Obama.
Oddly, folks from Georgia have filed twice. Pandora? Do you know anything about that?
this is a slap in the face to every vet who fought to defend this country, keep it united, or to unite it after the first rash of secessions.
yeah go ahead and leave, come up with your own currency, arrange your own treaties, form your own military, secure your own borders, and let rick perry handle everything. next time a hurricane hits your gulf coast or if a central american country threatens your sovreignity, you are on your own. don't come to the US and beg for help.
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
The headline is very misleading (as is par for the course with Yahoo...need pageviews, right?). All it takes is a handful of determined folks to file a petition. These articles are just meant to stoke the partisan fires and will all go away in a week or two.
About stoking partisan fires...right on cue...
No one's gonna make you a foreigner. Cripes.
We in New York intend to form our own country and
we're taking the other Blue States with us.
In case you aren't aware that includes California,
Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin,
Michigan, Illinois and the rest of the Northeast.
We believe this split will be beneficial to the
nation and especially to the people of the new
country of The Enlightened States of America (E.S.A).
To sum up briefly:
You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave states.
We get stem cell research and the best beaches.
We get Andrew Cuomo and Elizabeth Warren. You get
Bobby Jindal and Todd Akin.
We get the Statue of Liberty. You get OpryLand.
We get Apple, Intel and Microsoft. You get WorldCom.
We get Harvard and Stanford. You get Ole' Miss.
We get 85 percent of America's venture capital and
entrepreneurs.
You get Alabama.
We get two-thirds of the tax revenue. You get to make
the red states pay their fair share.
Since our aggregate divorce rate is 22 percent lower
than the Christian Coalition's, we get a bunch of
happy families. You get a bunch of single moms.
With the Blue States in hand we will have firm
control of 80% of the country's fresh water, more
than 90% of the pineapple and lettuce, 92% of the
nation's fresh fruit, 95% of America's quality wines
(you can serve French wines at state dinners) 90% of
all cheese, 90 percent of the high tech industry,
most of the US low sulfur coal, all living redwoods,
sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven Sister
schools plus Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Cal Tech and MIT.
With the Red States you will have to cope with 88% of
all obese Americans and their projected health care
costs, 92% of all US mosquitoes, nearly 100% of the
tornadoes, 90% of the hurricanes, 99% of all Southern
Baptists, virtually 100% of all televangelists, Rush
Limbaugh, Bob Jones University, Clemson and the
University of Georgia.
We get Hollywood and Yosemite, thank you.
38% of those in the Red states believe Jonah was
actually swallowed by a whale, 62% believe life is
sacred unless we're discussing the death penalty or
gun laws, 44% say that evolution is only a theory,
53% that Saddam was involved in 9/11 and 61% of you
crazy bastards believe you are people with higher
morals then we lefties.
We're taking the good weed too. You can have that
crap they grow in Mexico.
Sincerely,
Citizen of the Enlightened States of America

"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
edit - ah, fuck me for smoking a bowl while posting!
i'm not a doctor, but i play one on AMT...
i think at this point it is best that we just laugh at the people who are talking about secession and signing petitions. it will only piss them off more
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
Yaaaaaahooooooooo! We found more people we've never met to hate! Let's get after 'em!
texas has talked about secession before. perry was talking about it 3 years ago.
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
i support the united states being the united states, and anyone in favor of breaking them up for no good reason deserves to be ridiculed. especially if it is just because they lost an election. channel that energy and come back and win the next one for god's sake...
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
I mean... I'll sign them all. Fuck, if Texas over to Georgia wants to leave? I'll bring my chain saw and we can cut it off and let it float away.
We get to keep Key West.
Well hang on, let me jump over the border before we go doing that. I don't want to be adrift in the ocean on Texas island with Jerry Jones, Leatherface and Dubya.
I was hoping it was based in election and electoral reform because somethings got to give there.
The US continues to suffer economic difficulties stemming from the federal government’s neglect to reform domestic and foreign spending. The citizens of the US suffer from blatant abuses of their rights such as the NDAA, the TSA, etc. Given that the state of Texas maintains a balanced budget and is the 15th largest economy in the world, it is practically feasible for Texas to withdraw from the union, and to do so would protect it’s citizens’ standard of living and re-secure their rights and liberties in accordance with the original ideas and beliefs of our founding fathers which are no longer being reflected by the federal government.

actually there's a good point here yes?
Wow! 30 states involved.
One moment some want to be compassionate the next laugh and ridicule.
Hope compassion wins out, that is a country to be proud of.
Being laughed at is not usually what we would want from others,
but we sure need a sense of humor.
Folks only read what they want to around these parts. It's not a long article, but here's a paragraph from it:
An article from WKRC quotes a University of Louisville political science professor who explained that these petitions aren't uncommon. Similar petitions were filed following the 2004 and 2008 elections. Still, should the petitions garner 25,000 signatures in a month, they will require an official response from the Obama administration.
Who was President in 2004? So, based on the article, one could assume it's Dems that started this new American "tradition." If this were actually journalistic it's headline would be - Here We Go Again....
This is indicative of the climate in the country. Doesn't matter which side wins, the other does these stupid things. The fact that folks can get so wrapped up in a poorly written blog shows you all you need to know.
Yes it is. Want to know how simple to file and trivial these "petitions" are? Perhaps this one is more your speed...

purely for comedy purposes, but still signed....
