Nothing Succeeds Like Liberal Secession: Blue America Without Red America Would Be A Basket Case
Townhall ^ | 12/15/2015 | Kurt Schlichter

Of course, back home in the Blue America’s capital, New York City, President De Blasio was less charitable. “We are no longer held back by the reactionary, racist policies of the past,” he thundered. “Together, we will build a new dawn of progress that places people before profits and promotes peace instead of perpetual war!” Blue America – New England and the mid-Atlantic seaboard, back through Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, the West Coast and Hawaii, immediately set to drafting a new constitution. It featured 216 new affirmative rights, including “the right to a living wage,” “the right to abortion upon demand at government expense,” and “the right to define one’s own life experience in terms of race and gender.” Embarrassingly, the rights to free speech and the free exercise of religion did not make the leaked initial draft; they were hastily added, but there was no right to keep and bear arms. In fact, the first law the new People’s Assembly passed was to confiscate all privately-owned weapons. The second was to legalize all illegal aliens, and the third to triple welfare payments.

Only Indiana wouldn't go along, and I have about 1/2 and 1/2 that Ohio would go to the "Blue States".

This would work ONLY if the south explicitly stated in the new constitution that the goal is to keep government as small as possible, and liberalism is a desease that should only be treated with thorazine

how about cramming all the libs onto American Samoa and leaving them there after quarantining all forms of travel to and from the area?

Or is this too harsh?

Ohio? I'm in the Commonwealth of North Kentucky. The Blue Soviet Socialist Republic can't have me.

Look no further than the state of California, where those workers are subdizing they wasteful environmental policies of the Sacramento politicians, and now the forced payments by those taxpayers to those who are broke the law to come there from other countries.

The reason secession is such a high priority for many.

More properly, Cleveland and Columbus would go with the blue states, the rest would go red state.

It might be too harsh once it flips over.

I agree with the commentator who wrote that the Left doesn’t want independence, it wants control. When they call for the redistribution of wealth, they don’t mean theirs.
