Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsCitizens in 15 states are filing petitions for secession. The second civil war has begun ! Well not
really. They are using a blog spammer outfit called Whitehouse.gov to create online petitions the dissolution of the United States due to the massive 'DemocRat' voter fraud which robbed them of their conservative landslide last week.
It's rather amusing and I suggest everyone take a peek. Don't worry about sending traffic their way. I doubt they have more than a few thousand hits a week.
For the original article is here (the count is up to 39 states now)

And here is the whitehouse.gov petitions page where the Baggers are posting their spam petitions

This will keep the TeaBaggers amused until they get rolling on impeaching the President over BenghaziGate.

(19,460 posts)get a DUer to teach a history class over at Freeperville?
It has been done before. This was done prior to the Civil War. The White House has already received over 25,000 signatures. This is legal and the amount of signatures are growing. Read some history. Concentrate on the Civil War period.

(54,405 posts)Bonehead knows what'll happen to his relations with the White House if he lets any proceedings get beyond the Bachmann-Gohmert fringe, and this isn't 1999. Hastert was led around by the nose by Hyde, and it was at the end of Clinton's second term. It has only been just over a decade since Clinton's impeachment. The memories are fresh, and the congressional Democrats are vigilant this time. In 1999, the Democrats didn't think the Republicans were that fanatic. Now we know they are.

(7,675 posts)like Akins and Mourdock didn't get in. Looks like West is out too.
But the RW blogsphere will keep that fire burning until Barack gets on the Presidential helicopter for the last time in 2016.
