Gov. Rick Perry: Texas Could Secede, Leave Union

Meh, a healthy percentage of Texans always favor secession, no matter who the President is. That's just the way Texas is.

Vermont is similar - they've always got some sort of secession movement going on up there.

Anyways, if the South seceded tomorrow along the Civil War lines, I'm not sure the North would be too inclined to fight. The Jesusland joke after the 2004 election was taken somewhat seriously in some circles.

Texas, please go. Don't teach evolution in your schools, ban anything but Fox News, and put student-led prayer in the schools. Let businessmen run wild, and privatize to your hearts' content. Enjoy your neo-feudal existence.

Polarization problem solved.

Correction, the guy that was born in the US, spent most of his life in America, including 3 years in Texas, and only in the past three or so years has been living abroad.
