Cancelling the right is proceeding full speed ahead. Remember when Georgia lost the baseball All-Star game to Colorado recently in protest over Georgia new voting laws?

And just now, Alabama is losing a sweetheart deal over its US Senator Tuberville's decision to block high level military promotions because the military funds abortion expenses, although the official reason given was, "moving his headquarters now would jeopardize military readiness."

When I saw
the controversial video, my first thought was, why would I want to be in a place dominated by these people? Message received. And it's not just a racist message. I consider these people just as hostile and dangerous to me being a white, liberal atheist.
And while others hope for a rapprochement between the left and right, I don't see that as realistic. The differences are irreconcilable, contempt is mutual, and as this song suggests, these people are proudly hostile and prone to violence, so I approve of what I see as a trend for liberals to leave red states.
This was circulating after the 2004 election, so the identification of states as red or blue is a little different and some of the entities named no longer exist, like Enron, but the sentiment is the same except stronger today:
FROM THE BLUE STATES TO THE RED
Dear Red States...
We've decided we're leaving. We intend to form our own country, Nouveau California.
We're taking the other Blue States with us. In case you aren't aware, that includes the Pacific states except Alaska (California, Oregon, Washington and Hawaii), the Great Lakes states except Indiana (Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan and yes, we’re taking Ohio back), New England (Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island), the Mid-Atlantic states (New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania), and Maryland and Delaware.
We believe this split will be beneficial to both nations. For example, the residents of Nuevo California will be leaving Iraq at once. You’re “real Americans” in uniform from the Heartlands won’t have to fight beside elitists and intellectuals. If you need more people to fight, ask your evangelicals. They have plenty of spare kids (they practice abstinence only and have no Planned Parenthood clinics). Oh, and good luck with those WMD’s.
With the Blue States in hand, we will have firm control of 80 percent of the country's fresh water, more than 90 percent of the pineapple and lettuce, 92 percent of the nation's fresh fruit, 95 percent of America's quality wines (you can serve French wines at state dinners) 90 percent of all cheese, 90 percent of the high tech industry, most of the U.S. low-sulfur coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven Sister schools, plus Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Cal Tech, and MIT.
With the Red States, on the other hand, you will have to cope with 88 percent of all obese Americans (and their projected health care costs), 92 percent of all U.S. mosquitoes, nearly 100 percent of the tornadoes, 90 percent of the hurricanes, 99 percent of all Southern Baptists, virtually 100 percent of all televangelists, Rush Limbaugh.
Since your Christian Coalition’s aggregate divorce rate is 22 percent higher than ours, you get a bunch of deadbeat dads, single moms and latch key kids. You can hire our big city lawyers, however.
Additionally, 38 percent of those in the Red states believe Jonah was actually swallowed by a whale, 62 percent believe life is sacred unless we're discussing the death penalty or gun laws, 53 percent believe that Saddam was involved in 9/11.
We’ll take Old Glory since you already have enough Stars and Bars to go around. Will you be calling your country the Cunfederucy or Jeebusland? By the way, we're taking the good pot, too. You’ll still have your meth labs.
We get the coasts
You get the fly over states
We get California and the nude beaches
You get Texas, Oklahoma and the rest of cowboy America
We get Manhattan and Chesapeake Bay
You get the Dukes of Hazards states like Alabama and Mississippi
We get Hollywood, Yosemite and the best beaches
You get Iowa, incest and swamps.
We get the resorts and golf courses
You get Graceland and Nascar.
We get the Statue of Liberty and the Golden Gate Bridge.
You get Dollywood, the Appalachians and the Ozarks.
We get Stanford, Columbia, Princeton and Harvard.
You get Ole' Miss, Bob Jones University, Clemson, the University of Georgia and Columbine High School.
We get 85 percent of America's venture capital and two-thirds of the tax revenue
You get the churches and people that that don’t believe in paying taxes.
We get entrepreneurs, Intel and Microsoft.
You get WorldCom and Enron.
Peace out,
Blue States
