Turns out there's a heck of a lot of support for Texas secession. Not so much in Texas -- where, despite all Rick Perry's talk of skedaddling, only about 18 percent of residents wanted to secede in 2009 -- but in Russia, where there's at least a lot of rhetorical support for Texas's becoming America's first Breakaway Republic.

I wish Texas would go away, it's like trying to get Beetlejuice to stop being a dick long enough for the house to be quiet.

As a Utahn, I welcome my new bear-wrestling, naked-horseback-riding overlord.
We're pretty fond of the military bases, too.

There are already tunnels between all the Walmarts. How hard can it be to rule Texas with a small, mobile KGB team?
Another installment of "Bad Cinema."
