Poll question: If your state could secede & join the EuropeanUnion would you vote for it
Maybe this is the ultimate answer to the red state/blue state thing?

3. I'm sorry but I hate this kind of talk. This is our country so fight
for it and if you don't like the way it is being run then do something about it.

4. billbuckhead thinks the answer to all of America's problems is the EU.

His quote. "The real 21st century Constitution is the European Union, the fastest growing most economically successful, freest and liberal political entity in history. Gunners hate it because they did it without firing off a single gun."

5. You made that sound like a 1st grader who saw me kissing a girl
The blue states can join the civilized world and the red states can be part of what Molly Ivans call the world's richest third world nation. They can make Crawford the capital. Make the pigfarm the new White House.

9. I'd rather my state or the entire half of
the United States secede from the rest. One state/or part be Democrat or secular and free, the other part can remain conservative and anal.

....:evilgrin:

10. No, not yet bad enough...
I like to think it's still 1838, not 1858.

No way. Europe can still, for the moment, go it's own way...

11. to the 'yes' voters...
...don't let the door hit your ass on the way out!

Have you ever spent any real time in Europe? It's not paradise. Joerg Haider, anyone? Berlusconi? Real sweethearts.
