Borrowed the title from Dave Letterman. What? Twenty-three states have petitioned the White House to secede since the election? We know which ones they are... all of the places Democrats should avoid...Arizona, Tennessee, Texas, Alabama, Oklahoma, Colorado, Florida(?!), Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina. The good news is that most of us will still be citizens of the same country. I agree that those who filed these petitions- their brains likely already seceded from their bodies.

Hmmm... maybe we can get NY and NJ to secede before we spend the billions in federal aid to recover from hurricane Sandy. Matter of fact, Florida and Louisiana and a few of these other states are high-maintenance too and suck up billions in hurricane and disaster relief and greatly add to the national debt. Maybe these states seceding is not such a bad deal.

Can I stay a USA citizen even if I live in a UFA state?
Do we have to refund taxes paid by UFA states/citizens in previous years?
Lots of questions and issues to ponder.

Moral of the story: If my Barbie can't be the queen and dictate all of the rules, then I am going to pack up all of my dolls and go home. So there now too!
