Forget hell! Secession creeping closer?

Posted By on Fri, May 1, 2009 at 2:00 PM

Secession fever is apparently sweeping through Conservative World, and it's getting closer to the Carolinas. Boy, talk about your swine flu! First, a poll a couple of weeks ago, taken after Texas Gov. Rick Perry broached the subject at a Tea Party, revealed that the GOP in Texas is evenly divided over whether the Lone Star state should secede from the United States. Now, a new poll from Research 2000 shows that 43 percent of Republicans in Georgia say their state would be better off as an independent nation than as a part of the United States. (52 percent preferred staying in the union, no doubt having read something in history books about secession's results a couple of centuries ago). My only question is: Why do conservatives hate America?
