The biggest surprise to me was the outrage expressed over an individual who thinks along these lines, because I heard people say, well, this is treasonous and this was un-American. But don’t they remember how we came in to our being? We used secession, we seceded from England. So it’s a very good principle. It’s a principle of a free society. It’s a shame we don’t have it anymore. I argue that if you had the principle of secession, our federal government wouldn’t be as intrusive into state affairs and to me that would be very good.
We as a nation have endorsed secession all along. Think of all of the secession of the countries and the republics from the Soviet system. We were delighted. We love it. And yet we get hysterical over this just because people want to debate and defend the principle of secession, that doesn’t mean they’re calling for secession. I think it’s that restraining element of secession that would keep the federal government from doing so much. In our early history, they accepted the principles of secession all along.
What about Vermont?
What about Vermont?
Vermont is indispensable, good maple syrup comes from there. Plus Ben & Jerry's. All Texas apparently gives the country are distinguished mentally-challenged politicians.

No I was asking about the liberals in Vermont that want secession.
Hey guys, remember when dissent was un-American about six months ago?
::)
Why are conservatives such sore losers about this election?It's because it was their last chance at keeping any relevant power, and they know it. New laws won't be made with religious principals. They've been shown they are actually the minority opinion now that the repubs are out of power and it's quite a shock to their system.
Hell in 2004, liberals whined about moving to Canada for a month or two and that was about it. Conservatives lose in the biggest margin in 20 years or so and they want to revolt. It's mind boggling.

Well, they're wrong too. But plz link the Gov. of Vermont talking about secession. kaythxbye.
This week, however, the eccentric left-wing scholars and retired busy-bodies behind the campaign took a more controversial step which is puzzling some of its die-hard supporters. They travelled the 2,000 miles to the other end of the Appalachian Trail to sit down with an equally academically-minded group from the south also pushing for secession from the United States. Unlike the delegates of the Second Vermont Republic, the League of the South wraps itself in the flag of the Confederacy and has been widely denounced as a racist hate group.

Just put my glasses on, don't see any mentioning of the Gov of Vermont in my post. I don't know who the gov is nor do I care. I'm talking about the secession movement in general, everyone gangs up on Texas, but there are other states where these movements are happening and have been for some time. The one in Vermont got press attention some time back.
Texas, Vermont, Alaska, I'm sure we can find others.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here: Ron Paul is the only man in our government that doesn't need a bullet to the back of the head in my opinion. The ATF and FBI have a file on me. If you don't have a FBI file you aren't doing enough against this tyrannical state.
We can move all the secessionists to Idaho and let them secede. We don't really need that state anyway.
anyone want Winnipeg?

In all fairness, Ron Paul has always said that dissenting is patriotic.
