State of California's seccession letter to Bush.
Doug, my boyfriend, just sent me this. I got a kick out of it...and I thought I would post it here. SHMILY, Doug.


Dear President Bush:

Congratulations on your victory over all us non-evangelicals.

Actually, we're a bit ticked off here in California, so we're
leaving. California will now be its own country. And we're taking all the Blue States with us. In case you are not aware, that includes Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, and all of the North East.

We spoke to God, and she agrees that this split will be beneficial
to almost everybody, and especially to us in the new country of California. In fact, God is so excited about it, she's going to
shift the whole country at 4:30 pm EST this Friday. Therefore, please let everyone know they need to be back in their states by then.

So you get Texas and all the former slave states. We get the Governator, stem cell research and the best beaches.

We get Elliot Spitzler. You get Ken Lay. (Okay, we have to keep Martha Stewart, we
can live with that.) We get the Statue of Liberty. You get OpryLand.

We get Intel and Microsoft. You get WorldCom. We get Harvard. You get Old Miss'. We get 85% of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs. You get all the technological innovation in Alabama.

We get about two-thirds of the tax revenue, and you get to make the
red states pay their fair share. Since our divorce rate is 22% lower
than the Christian coalition's, we get a bunch of happy families.
You get a bunch of single moms to support, and we know how much you like that.

Did I mention we produce about 70% of the nation's veggies? But heck
the only greens the Bible-thumpers eat are the pickles on their Big
Macs. Oh yeah, another thing, don't plan on serving California wine
at your state dinners. From now on it's imported French wine for
you. Ouch, bet that hurts.

Just so we're clear, the country of California will be pro-choice
and anti-war. Speaking of war, we're going to want all Blue States
citizens back from Iraq. If you need people to fight, just ask your
evangelicals. They have tons of kids they're willing to send to
their deaths for absolutely no purpose. And they don't care if you don't show pictures of their kids' caskets coming home.

Anyway, we wish you all the best in the next four years and we hope,
really hope, you find those missing weapons of mass destruction. Seriously. Soon.



Sincerely,
California

Well, not just Harvard, but we also get Yale, Dartmouth, Brown, Columbia, Princeton & Penn. Additionally, we can add MIT, Johns Hopkins, Carnegie-Mellon, Penn State, Villanova, RPI, Michigan, Michigan State, Northwestern, Stanford, UCLA, Berkeley, Cal Tech and many, many more.

4. Wisconsin agrees
Wisconsinites think this is a great idea. Why should we have to pay welfare to the red states?

8. I'm sure our property values will go up
Though, it could be balanced by relocating Freepers & Evangelicals.

6. Woo hoo!! I could support that!
I'd love to cut us off from the assclown shit southern and evangelican moran states. Fuck 'em. Let the assholes fend for themselves for once, instead of sucking at the teet of the liberal blue states who provide the significant majority of the country's economy, brain power, manufacturing, and agriculture.

And, I do hope that we allow all the dems from the shit states to come to the new country. If we're gonna leave the asshole morans alone, let's really leave them alone.

Let's see how their "creation science" helps them keep their power plants going and how their "kill all the foreigners" theology helps them make deals with the oil producing countries.

12. I could live with the governator....
if he supported this, and there could be a strong Republican-like economic argument for doing so.

Oh by the way, <cough> http://moveoncalifornia.org/index.html
