BaggerBruce, what does the wife think of your obsession?

Pat Buchanan is more on the pulse of what is going on.

If red states can get the nukes, and blue states the $17 trillion dollar debt, there may well be a CHristmas somewhere in what used to be the USA still.

This country was not founded as a democracy, it was founded as a Constitutional republic. This was to keep the majority from voting to take whatever they pleased from a minority. Once you loose the right to private property you are nothing more than a servant. This is what the "bagger" are fighting so hard to keep and why the establishment is so desperate to bury them.

Why do we vote and the majority wins?

Seccession is not an option but emigration is.

Maybe OK will become a canadian province! Yay!

The Mighty Muddy Mississippi can be the boundary. THe East gets socialism, Obama, BIden, and half of the nukes and half of the the $18 trillion debt, less what we get by selling Alaska to the Israelites, and Hawaii to Japan.

The west gets President Romney, vice president Tim Pawlenty, and we in Minnesota let the Twin Cities go with the east and become a natural conservative state.

You are used to moving, and can sell your Iowa farmland and purchase something in the east from some conservative fleeing.

WHats the downside?

Don't you want the south with all the red neck idiots? We sure as H don't want them. Minnesota belongs in the east as well as much of iowa. California certainly doesn'rt belong on the R side. Perhaps your plan is not so good but nice try anyway!

[Red Steele]

Part of MN would go to the east...the liberal part. And as for California, didn't Nixon, Reagan, and Ahhhnold all hail from the Golden State?

THe East can have the south, as long as we get Texas.

A republic is literally a form of government in which affairs of state are a "public matter" (Latin: res publica), not the private concern of the rulers, in which public offices are subsequently appointed or elected rather than privately accommodated

I amazes me you can refer to yourselves as a constitutional republic when it is merely a democracy. Why continue that charade? If it made a difference to how the country was governed comparing it to a democracy, go ahead.

But in reality if you get a warm inner glow calling it anything you like, it is you who is delusional as to exactly what your constitutional status is. Call it what you want but it is actually a democracy.

Yeah i would even give texas to mexico. I'd druther they drag down the IQ of mexico that the US.
