California Recall Election

This would be so sweet.  They are trying to have the entire state of California recalled.  Sure that would mean a tremendous loss in tax revenue, but damn, they are in another world anyway.

I say vote yes!!!

Rest of Country Plans to Recall California
By Brian Briggs
 
 Sacramento, CA - In only the second time in U.S. history, 49 states will be voting to recall California. If the measure succeeds, California will be forced to renounce statehood and will either become a sovereign nation of its own, or join with another nation such as Mexico.

The United States may be taking a new shape in December

American history professor, Ernest Detor, explained the historic ramifications. "According to Section 12, Article 3 of the United States Constitution, if 80% of the states agree then a recall election can be held. This only happened once before. Back in 1874, Nebraska faced a recall vote after the rest of the states got tired of its corny jokes."

Recent events such as the circus surrounding California\'s own recall vote of its Governor and the release of the film Gigli has forced U.S. residents to act. The campaign to recall California has been funded mostly by Oregon.

"It\'s ridiculous what is going on out in California. I\'m really ashamed to have them as part of the country," declared Marisa Ricola from Montpelier, Vermont. "They can\'t put out crap like Gigli and expect to remain part of the union."

Sharon Willis, a high school senior at Lincoln Consolidated Schools in Oklahoma City, said, "I think a strong message is being sent to all the other states. Behave or be kicked out. You hear that Canada? Shape up or you could be next."

Up to 100 countries could be on the ballot to replace California. Already, Puerto Rico, Madagascar, and porn star Portugal have announced their plans to replace California. To be eligible for replacement a country needs 3,500 people and must submit a $100 application fee.

President Bush expressed relief and said that while losing a large state like California would hurt tax revenue, at least his re-election campaign would be a lot easier.

California, which became the 31st state in 1850, will face the recall on November 19th.

I would love it if we could secede from all the rest of you conservative redneck whackos.  You can have Orange County though.  I guarantee there will be other states clamoring to join the Progressive Democracy of California.  Do you think you can sever ties with us and still keep Hawaii...?  Think again.  :p

Don\'t even consider starting any of that "War on Terror" BS with us either.  Our words are backed by Nuclear Weapons.  :laughing:

Would you grant the rest of the states fly over to get to Hawaii or would you make us go around?

Go around, or pay a tax for flying over.  That is our way, everything must be taxed!
