(Do we have to go dig up General Sherman and send him down there to burn Atlanta down again?)
Only problem is most of the West and Midwest would go with the South this time leaving the Leftists to starve in their enclaves in the North East, the Rust Belt and the West Coast.
All the insults against the South and conservatives in general asside, I’m ready to get the National Divorce proceedings going.
Great notion—to divide and conquer ourselves so that our enemies don’t have to do it for us.
In the absence of hard-working, tax-paying Southerners, the liberal North would collapse economically in short order.
(Didn’t you just love the dripping condescension in this piece?)
No he’s an idiot like any other idiot who buys into the red state blue state manipulation.
If he wanted to have a point he should suggest that the cities secede from the rest of America. They would die but they would learn something.
I wonder sometimes if they have thought this through. Liberal Elitism and their NIMBY attitude have driven the large bulk of the military South. Have they considered this point when making this argument?
Guess where the industries that vacated the north and upper midwest went?
South.
Yeah, sure. Let’s leave. This time, peacefully.
Yep, hee hee hee
Most of these whackos don’t really think much, and stuff like this is just fodder for the liberal nutballs, who mostly teeter on the edge of sanity anyway.
As New Orleans showed us all, when the food, fuel, and water run out, the average Dem voters turn on each other, violently. A liberal paradise.
We wouldn’t mind, that’s for sure.
OK! Fine by me! I’m glad the Yankees are starting to see the error of their ways, even if it took them 150 years to do so. Normal Americans, including Midwesterners and Far West citizens who want to embrace healthy American values, can live in the CSA. The rest of the libs can stay north of the border fence we’ll put up.
It would probably be best if all the Klansmen, racists, and haters moved north, however. They’d be more at home up there. Yes, there’s some racism in the South, but the worst racists I’ve ever met were in major Northern cities.
The only trouble I foresee is that within a few years the Northern States of America will collapse economically, and they’ll be beating down the doors to sneak in here illegally. Kinda like Mexico.
Texas could be a breakaway republic rather cleanly. They have their own power grid, their own ports, their own energy sources, their own cities of commerce and they’ll fix their border with Mexico the right way without Washington’s foot-dragging.
And if ObamaCare becomes law and everyone is forced to government-run health care, Texas has tons of hospitals and some of the finest health facilities in the country to take in all those who want to violate the law and get the care they can afford.
Truly, Texas’ economy could run circles around America’s without an EPA, OSHA and other impediments to business. They’re already one of the strongest economic states even with Washington’s meddling.
Why Secede? Kick the New England states out with the west coast as well as Ill. They have nothing in common with the rest.
I noticed the liberal author wants to send Texas to the North while the South keeps Florida in his idiot manuverings.
I can tell you, speaking as a seventh generation Texan, there isn’t a native Texan worth their salt that would agree to that scenario, and we would be happy to meet him at the Texas border to discuss the issue.
I often hear Mike Church on Sirius/XM Patriot advocating secession, and always think of the same question: “What happens to the nuclear stockpile?”
Why does this ass assume that this is a North and South thing?
I’m a seventh generation Texan. My ancestors fought Mexico. The North cannot have Texas!
Texas would NEVER side with the North over the South. That being said, I’d have NO problem with secession by the South. I’d move there in a heartbeat from Southwestern Ohio.
