In my opinion all the states below Oregon on the list that went for Bush in '04 were stolen. Come to think of it, I thought exactly the same thing about those states the day after the "election."

In reality, the people would be better served living under several different governments scattered across the former US than a one-size-fits-all government sitting in Washington. They would be closer to the people and thus would be more under the thumb of people instead of big business.

Now get your asses down to Texas and help liberate us, dammit!
