    Freedonia: Not just a Duck Soup reference anymore.

    From the seemingly inexhaustible fund of wisdom that is Marxism, a new nation is born.

    Bear with me here--I do not contemplate the secession of the progressive (donor) states from the Union.  We know that is impossible, on account of the Civil War, and all.

    But, I ask you, does forbidding secession also forbid shunning?

    Imagine that the progressive states, (who also happen to be net donors to the knuckle draggers in flyover territory) dump the teabaggers, the women haters, the christianist majority states.

    We will welcome the migration of any former US citizens and grant them lifetime entry visas.

    The rest of you, (especially any registered Repugnants) get the fuck outtahere!  You are on your fundamentalist own.  Suck it up.

    Oh, and, by the way--enjoy your coming fiscal collapse, while we enjoy spending the money you were bleeding us of, you fucking degenerate freeloaders!

    DD, you're gonna love your new coastal locale...let me tell you about San Francisco (I don't know why the tourist board rejected my pitch, but...)  "Steep hills, steady winds, short skirts, no panties."

    Now doesn't that beat 11 months of winter?
