This is pretty much all I hear about nowadays. Lots of people are trying to get their state removed from the US because they're mad that Obama won. I also heard something about trying to get Obama impeached.

I hate America lol

Well if the people that don't like it just leave the country, I'm sure our average math and science scores would go through the roof.

There are no words but 'silly' for stuff like this.

Let one of them secede and grab Puerto Rico? Then we wouldn't have to switch flags :D

[paecmaker]

oh come on people, talk about bad losers. :p

[Mizel]

I say let them go. Experts have already done some research and stated that Texas is one of the poorest states and would not be able to survive on it's own if they seceded. I'd *love* to watch them beg to come back :P

But all in all this is just ridiculous. This is why other countries laugh at us.

I've read about this a little bit (not enough to actually think this would happen). Kicking and screaming like a bunch of two year olds doesn't get you anywhere.

God forbid our country actually work together to achieve something great and over come our obstacles. Yeah, I guess that is asking too much for our government to grow up and act like a bunch of adults. Using our terms here in gaming land they are a bunch of rage-quitters. :p

i'm with linux on this, cause if they don't like it, might as well move out from the country. i've lost 2 neighbors due to this. one moved to Canada, the other moved to Panama. odd places, but its all good

[Mizel]

Why does it seem like everyone's freaking out NOW? I mean... Obama won in 2008 and I swear people weren't this crazy over it...

[Synge]

I dunno, I remember all kinds of crazy ****: He was called the anti-Christ, a terrorist, communist, there was all that stuff about his birth certificate. List goes on.

Edit: Also, LOL at Mississippi and Arkansas being on the list.. They could totally make it as independent nations..

[Mizel]

Oh, people bashed on him most def.... but seceding?? And legit moving out of the country? Didn't seem like it went that far O_o

[Synge]

I remember some of that, but I do live in the Midwest.. None of that is actually going to happen anyway.

[Mizel]

I'm sure it won't but I love to see it :P

Everybody is mad that Obama didn't miraculously fix every problem the country has and they thought that Romney would be a godsend and the savior of our country. So they're super mad now.

And yea, I say get rid of texas. Only two things come from Texas, steers and queers. (please get the reference)

Exactly. That's pretty much the Readers Digest version. :) It took Bush to ruin our economy in 8 years, I don't think anyone can fix it in 4.

LOL @ Texas

Full Metal Jacket?! lol

That made me lol

I love how repubs are so mad about Obama. How dare he try to fix the economy by fixing tax rates and whatnot. He should be starting more wars, dammit!! And putting billions of dollars into the military! *rolls eyes*

This thread made me think of this image that's been floating around Facebook -

Ahahaha. Awesome.

I liked this from a stand up comedian:

"A petition from Texas asking to secede from the union received over 25,000 signatures, surpassing the threshold where it has to be seen and acknowledged by the Obama administration.

I think it's a great thing after such a long, hard-fought, stressful campaign.... Obama deserves a good laugh."

There is a guy outside my office trying to convince people to sign his petition for NY to secede.

If he's still there Monday, I'm gonna prepare a few questions to ask him.

Congrats on losing two dumb neighbors.
