If Texas Seceeds Can the Rest of the South Go Too?

They're talking secession in Texas again and the governor is playing along. Glenn Beck got all gooey at the thought. Standing at the Alamo, Beck said, “This is the place – everybody's always heard, you know, 'Draw a line in the sand' – this is where it happened. They drew a line in the sand and said 'Enough is enough.'”

Ah, the wisdom of Glenn Beck! I wouldn't mind if Texas seceded and I would hope that Oklahoma would want to follow along. That would be 4 less GOP senators and a bushel of GOP representatives. A whole sweep of the South would be refreshing and might just move the other 40 states in a whole new, progressive direction.

Hat's off to the '09 secessionists!
