Blue states should secede from the USA, red states will go broke w/o us

[williesgirl]

and they can have their fucking * and his criminals and his Supreme Court. Let's form our own union and keep our bill of rights and Constitution sacred. Our hard earned taxes shouldn't be paying for all this criminal bullshit and illegal wars etc.

1. I always have to laugh when I hear that one. I am as disgusted as the

next guy, and I live in the armpit known as Nebraska. But I also know that Red States like this one is where the country's grain and beef, pork, etc., come from. Each state makes its own unique contribution to this country. Unfortunately, some of those states are full of fundies and two-legged freakshows.

I suppose you could import. That would not be cost effective though. I think that you'll just have to wait for the one thing that will turn every state around. The draft. When Smirk starts taking these little armchair warriors kids from them and sending them to the sand dunes of the Middle East, they won't be so damn rah rah about the guy.

And if we could just get the kids involved (like Georgetown). But I guess that will take care of itself when they have to suit up and ship out.

Another thing (and it's a big one) that was a major reason that people woke up from their braindead coma in the 70s was pictures. They have to see what we were doing. They saw what they were backing and therefore responsible for.

2. No, they should secede

after all, they did it once before

3. Blue states like where, specifically?

I hate to break it to you, but most "blue" states have more "red" land area than "blue" land area. California, Oregon, and Washington have a larger "red" area than New England, and then some.

I'd love to see the Bay Area latte liberals try to take on the Valley and the mountains here, but it just wouldn't happen.

Sorry.

4. Yeah, that's helpful ...

I'll keep this civil and relevant. While considering the sacred nature of the Constitution, ponder the Supremacy Clause and look up Texas v White.

Unilateral secession is not legal.

5. I'm sorry, this is bullshit

and really has no place here tonight when those of us in the red states worked as hard as anybody else here to prevent this thing today.
