Anyone who votes to secede cause Romney didn't win the election is an idiot, I don't need to read a poll article to know that.....did you vote for secession or something?

Actually I think Hannity might be your hero, you seem to be getting butt hurt from be calling him a lapdog....but on the other hand, I do like dogs, so I guess that means I like Hannity too. It would be fun to take him out to the park and play fetch with him, watching him get all excited cause he found a stick to carry around on our walk.

If you don't need to read it then why did you? Or are you just claiming you did so you can then call everyone idiots? Just wondering why you would go to these lengths when just earlier you said nobody cared about any of it to begin with.

Sitting on my laptop late at night laughing at the posts on CD isn't really going to any length to do, it is actually pretty easy.....and I never claimed I read the link, but it isn't hard to look at a poll, it is a collection of numbers after all.

But that doesn't change the root of the issue, someone who supports secession because Romney didn't win (because democracy was in action), then those people are idiots who want to live in a one party depotism which is against what our country stands for, thus unAmerican.

But I am sure you see these people as "patriots" or something noble.

Didn't they contest the election and have a recount?



Either way, I think this is good. Everyone knows no state will secede.

But its more about the message a lot of people feel unrepresented by our new government. They are using their freedome of speech to have their voice heard. They don't have the time to go out and "occupy" as the 99%. They check a box, go back to work and continue to get taxed and observe rediculous spending, and no fix in any immediate future..

It's a deeper meaning.... Like throwing a bunch of tea in a harbor.

OP, do you know how many secession threads there are now? and you begin another which is patently false, and intellectually dishonest.

That petition is a list of the names of people who dropped out of school around the time they were supposed to be studying the Civil War.

Time zones are not just a liberal conspiracy they are another sign of big government interfering with the god-given right of towns and states to establish their own time, regardless of what the time is in the town or state next door.
