Strictly speaking, this schmuck is in Maryland, so 37th.

Actually, that surprised me, but I guess if you count big military installations in a fairly small state, hmm, I guess.

Incidentally, if we're seceding, fuck the Six Californias. Give me Oregon and Washington, and the Left Coast Republic will kick ass. We can even give the rural areas some of the autonomy they want, because we won't be supporting the fucking Southeast any longer.

We will have to do something about the OC, but financial regulation will probably suffice.

Be fair. That's re-formulated Skynyrd concerts.

Yeah, I was thinking about Missouri, which didn't secede either, but Governor Jackson (no known relation) and his Cabinet actually formed a shadow secessionist government in Neosho, that St Louis, KC, and the actual center of government in Jefferson City refused to join, thus resulting in a mini-civil war inside Missouri, which is frankly too damn complicated. Michigan was unequivocally Unionist, except for a few (I'm sure) Democratic sympathizers whose repugnant views would surely have been retweeted widely among Confederate Twitter.

Dude. Yes there's a black family in the White House. There will be again some day. Suck it, you sick fuck.

Most of the Ol' Times There probably <em>are</em> forgotten, which makes it a whole lot easier to wax rhapsodically about them.

I don't like the new main page format. There, I said it.

It would help if the newest story was always at the top. Also, why do posting times have to have the hour and minutes match, does Shypixel have OCD?

I always assumed it was at NASCAR races and Lynyrd Skynyrd concerts

It's called the Cheatlin' Circuit

Possibly. We'll never know what the treasonous dickbags were thinking while they high-tailed it for Pennsylvania or Virginia at the point of a bayonet.

If only we'd had Twitter back then, we could have lost respect for lots more representatives of the good folks in Maryland, Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Michigan...

That's a nice ginormous navel facility Ol' Gaping Trench Coat has there, too, also.

He will undoubtedly retire here shortly.

Edwards I-III were no Lincoln. On the other hand, building a Hadrien's Wall on the Mason-Dixon line is not a terrible idea.

Alabama, please, please, oh please secede and take your biblical government with you. You shall be known as the Republic of Dixistan.

Is it just me, or are the comments harder to read, as they seem to be too light?
