What did you feel when you read that?

[Selatius]

1. Fear.

Bush would bring out the guns...literally.

[Katherine Brengle]

2. Goosebumps.

You suck.

[Colobo]

3. Who's doing this?

[originalpckelly]

5. It's a post to see how people feel when they read that...

not an actual story, so don't worry.

[Phredicles]

24. I feel like it sucks ass when people post made-up shit as if it were real.

[poverlay]

26. I'm with you on that one! ... nt

[havocmom]

4. Not surprise certainly

a bit of a knot in the gut, but was more surprised that it wasn't an actual news flash.

The world had become just too damn strange.

[Kadie]

6. My first thought was...

Arnie wouldn't do that.

[originalpckelly]

8. Oh yes he would...

but he'd be back. :P

[Kadie]

10. ROFL

:rofl:

[originalpckelly]

[Kadie]

12. Darn it.

7. I thought

"Somebody took something out of context."

[originalpckelly]

9. I know, I wouldn't put it past anyone...

but I highly doubt someone would do it seriously, but more of a thing to prove a point.

[rockymountaindem]

17. Well, if somebody really tried to do that, my first thought would be

"God Save the Union!"

[w8liftinglady]

13. my first thought was "what balls"...

I live in Texas...need I say more?

[Viva_La_Revolution]

14. yea!

I mean, I know it will cause a crisis and everything, but... YEA!

[Kagemusha]

15. One word.

Onion.

[originalpckelly]

19. AP: Governor announces resolution to secede from the onion over abuses of power by President Bush?

:rofl:

[Sen. Walter Sobchak]

16. I suspect California will do it in my life time,

I suspect California will be independent of the United States in my lifetime, I am not saying I think that would be a good thing but I suspect it is unavoidable.

[BurtWorm]

18. Skepticism.

[Orangepeel]

20. I thought, "What? No governor is crazy enough to do that."

then I thought, "does any governor even have that power?"

[Myrmidon]

21. About time.

We secede, one by one, and reform into a new nation or nations.

[DKRC]

22. Hope!

I'm just about ready for anything at this point.


:evilgrin:

[Jack Rabbit]

23. Before any governor would do that

. . . he would urge Congress to impeach the bastards, make a few impassioned speeches urging people like you and me (if we haven't already) to write our Represenative and till him to impeach the bastards and then write our Senators and tell them to consider any impeachment resolution favorably.

[Blue_In_AK]

25. There have been secessionists up here for years...

...long before George Bush, i.e., the Alaska Independence Party.

[pnwmom]

28. I thought . . . Vermont. n/t

[BlueIris]

29. I snickered and thought, "Hee. Is it Ted (my governor)?"

"'Cause he's just about crazy enough to do that."

[Crabby Appleton]

30. didn't work out too well last time it was tried. nt

[Bonobo]

31. I get it! It's like performance art, right!

[Peace Patriot]
