Don't Mess With Texas ... Get Rid Of It : NPR

Can't say I'm having a hard time agreeing with this commentary.

There is already a group out there called Please Secede who have an online petition up. They just want Texas out of the Union, no more, no less.

Plus, 48% of Texas Republicans WANT to secede.

I'll say it again: LET THEM!

Nate Silver looks at how to divide Texas into five states. Three of them full of lunatics, one proudly Dem and one full of Austin citizens who would likely vote the Red out of their part of the map.

That said, let the bastards go if they want to leave so bad. Once I can hire a Force Recon unit to escort my family into that hellhole, Gabriel can visit his relatives again.
