“Is this possible without consent from the Congress?” Nope....However, we have W. Virginia *ahem*

To leave one state and to become a part of another already existing state, you don't need Congressional approval.

I was the recipient of a government check for almost 40 years (I still receive a govt retirement check).

I HAVE NEVER VOTED FOR A DEMOCRAT IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!

Being a Native Californian, in some elections (almost all) I have a choice between 2 demonrats and an assortment of real weirdos, I will always vote for the weirdest freakazoid on the state ballot just so I don’t add to a ratbastard demonrats vote total.

The Tennessee River thing was during a time of severe drought in N. Ga. forcing water rationing in Atlanta. There was some (sort of) good-natured sparring going on in the respective state houses

"West Virginia is now early in the process of inviting Virginia’s counties to secede and be annexed to West Virginia."

The Constitution addresses this question. Any transference of territory from one state to another requires approval of both Congress and the state legislatures. It has happened twice, West Virginia formed from Virginia, and Maine from Mass.

Love it!

(But really, all this crap could have been prevented if more conservatives had gotten up off the couch and voted last year, as far as I know.)

DANG!
