"President Bush can't stop us from seceding."
Wonder what makes this bozo think he'd try?
The more I think about it, the more I like this idea. I think Washington should secede is Bush wins...and New York, and Massachussetts, and Vermont, and Connecticut and Hawaii. Think how much we could get done in the four years where we had a filibuster-proof majority in the House and the Senate! We could pass our judges, pass meaningful pro-life measures, abolish the I.R.S., pass meaningful election and voter registration reforms, etc.
And after we tell these states that they must wait five years before their votes in the House and Senate will be anything more than advisory votes after they've re-joined the Union, that destroys ANY chance Hillary Clinton will have of being President until 2016 even if she takes her broom back to Arkansas.
So go ahead, Washington. Make my day.
