Gary_Yngve Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 I'd be all for that, but I want to be able to go to the Valley without having to go through customs. Â Have WA, OR, and CA secede. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selkirk Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 Wouldn't it be easier to gang up give Florida, Texas, and the rest of the south to Puerto Rico so they have enough people to justify declaring independance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snugtop Posted November 3, 2004 Author Share Posted November 3, 2004 (edited) even better  It's time for a divorce. Conveniently enough, most of the blue states are connected to Canada. It is time to turn the tables and leave the south to become the theocratic third world nation that it seeks. The United States is broken. I say that we join Canada and leave the south to revert back to the Confederate States of America.

JayB Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 I invite all of the proponents of this idea to tour through any of the non major-metro areas in CA, WA, and OR and spread the gospel. Please bring a film crew and share the footage. Â The footage from the truck stop in East Yakima should be priceless.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snugtop Posted November 3, 2004 Author Share Posted November 3, 2004 Read it. Just replace George III with George II.  He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers  He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.  He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.

klenke Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 Jay: are the liberals in the denial stage right now or the anger stage? Â If you don't like what's happened in the U.S. in the last day, you can always move to Canada yourselves and leave Washington right where it is.

JayB Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 You'll get a lot of mileage out of this sort of rhetoric in Ritzville. Seriously - bring the video camera.

foraker Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 As a semi-liberal, I'd say I'm in neither stage, just a bit saddened. I reckon we'll lose a lot of ground in some areas that are of particular interest to me (environment, etc) but I'm hoping the Republicans will wake up and stop writing George blank checks for everything. Their fiscal irresponsibility is hypocritical makes the Democrats look like penny pinchers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murraysovereign Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 Just replace George III with George II. Â No need to do that: Washington = George I, Bush Sr = George II, Bush Jr = George III Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyCamper Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 I am pretty sure a good chunk of the "red" counties would prefer that Seattle pack up and move to Sweden. Â You'd probably be better off convincing Bill Gates to change his name to Bill de Medici and turning the Seattle-area into a city-state. Well, maybe keep Bellevue a part of the provinces.

Learn this speech by heart, replace "Joe" with your own name.  Hey. I'm not a lumberjack, or a fur trader, and I don't live in an igloo or eat blubber, or own a dog sled, and I don't know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada, although I'm certain they're really, really nice. I have a Prime Minister, not a President. I speak English and French, not American, and I pronounce it 'about', not 'a boot'. I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack. I believe in peacekeeping, not policing; diversity, not assimilation; and that the beaver is a truly proud and noble animal. A touque is a hat, a chesterfield is a couch, and it is pronounced zed: not zee – zed!! Canada is the second largest nation! The first nation of hockey! And the best part of North America! My name is Joe!! And I am Canadian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
