You know as well as I do that no thread concerning Texas is complete without nazis.

The people who are in favor of this are the same kinds of people who can't find their own cock if you had the decency to find their gut for them. All hat, no cattle

On a serious note, I do think any state (or any region that is more or less unanimously in agreement on the issue) should have the right to secede. However, that is not the case here. At best, you only have an angry minority of wing-nuts clamoring for this, and I doubt they'd even know what to do if they got their wish.

States should only be allowed to secede if their petition passes the same rigor that it takes to admit a state into the union.

I hope they do secede. The world map has been way too static for too long... I want more flags and country capitals for pub quizzes.

On another note, with all the people who end up on no-fly lists for no particular reason, it would be interesting to see how these on-line partition signers fair the next time they want to travel.

I think I heard that it is up to 40 States now. If it continues the country will consist of Washington DC and P-R when they are admitted…

Interesting reactions to the same situation from Democrat and Republican nut jobs.

When the evil Republican president is elected, the Democrats want to flee the country. When the evil Democrat president is elected, the Republicans want to carve out their own separate country.
