Better to take back our country than leave it.

Plus the whole thing seems to have turned into a Rick Perry moment, and I can’t get very enthusiastic about that.

I see a lot of angry people on their high horses, cavalierly suggesting that we throw our great nation into the dustbin of history. That wounds me deeply.

Those advocating secession need to also consider the unintended consequences of political separation from the US. There are many.
