Rachel Maddow: If At First You Don't Secede. . .

Sorry for the dearth of posts recently. Just ran out of time. And now that I have a little, I want to do something else with it! But I'm gonna post a few things before going out the door.

This clip is from The Rachel Maddow Show from last night, and it is pretty great. In it, Texas Governor Rick Perry asserts what a great American he is by suggesting that Texas might secede from the rest of the country! And he's not the only one. This plays right into my pet theory that hardcore conservatives have so long heard that "liberals" are bad, bad, bad, that they're just losing their shit with liberals in power. It's been freakin' THREE MONTHS and they're already talking revolution and secession? What's this going to look like in three years?
