Dear Glenn,

-snipped-

I understand your pain. I just ended an eight-year relationship with an abusive president. I thought virtually everything he did -- from tax cuts for the rich to a war based on lies -- diminished the country I love.

-snipped-

But you don't seem interested in working within the democratic system created by our founding fathers. You seem to think the only options for people upset with President Obama's economic policies are secession from the union or suicide.

I think that's a little melodramatic, Glenn. Besides, there's another option. You can renounce your citizenship.

-snipped-

Secession is illegal, and suicide is drastic. So if you're too lazy to work for what you believe in, if you really believe that a modest tax hike on the wealthiest Americans is tantamount to destroying our nation, please feel free to get out while the getting is good.

I promise, we won't even miss you.

Love,
Jesse
