[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, when that Texas official declared there would be another civil war when Obama is reelected, my first thought was, "good."

Actually, not so much. I don't want a war. I just want a separation.

Back in 2004 after Kerry-Bush, people started posting maps dividing our country into The United States of Canada and Jesusland. It looks something like this (although there are varying approaches to drawing the borders): http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/File:Jesusland_Canada.png

I think I favor this now. This "united we stand/divided we fall" stuff is so 19th Century. So, let's just get it over with. [/quote]

The "Jesusland" designation suggests a biased disdain for an entire region and renders your opinions no better or wiser (IMHO) than those of any other prejudiced person.[/quote]

OMG could you be any more touchy???   So the idea that the northern states should move to become part of Canada is just a sensible and inoffensive notion.

If only you showed the same level of sensitivity for minorities, immigrants and women that you expect in political humor, you might have a functioning party.[/quote]

I made no mention of my party affiliation. FWIW, I've worked hard for many years in the field of education working with special needs children and have donated many volunteer hours to tutor kids from a variety of backgrounds. The designation you used is offensive, and I'm betting you wouldn't describe those from other cultures as "touchy" if they complained when that kind of comment was directed towards them. As I said, your viewpoints are no better than those of any other prejudiced person.[/quote]
