United we stand. Divided we fall.

PNAC - Land mass means nothing. Just because vast amounts of underpopulated rural counties vote Republican, you can't assume that the US is overwhelmingly red. The fact is, almost every major population hub in this country votes blue. It's these blue urban areas that ALSO foot the majority of the taxes in the US.
So I say.. go ahead! I'd LOVE to have two countries!

you can't divide the country up but why can't we have a check box on the IRS forms to indicate what group we'd prefer our money spent on. I personally wouldn't give a nickel to the causes espoused by the liberals. And I can certainly understand them not wanting to help conservative causes. The main victim would be the people that survive on entitlements because the cons would cut them off and the libs wouldn't have enough tax money to help them,

Kelly, I think we all can get along. Plus Blue county America is pretty small.
"Of America's 3,114 counties, Bush won 2,532 -- or 81.1 percent -- covering 78 percent of our country's land mass. In only 162 of those counties -- just over 6 percent -- was Bush's margin of victory less than 5 points. As the Los Angeles Times reported, Bush won 97 of the nation's 100 fastest-growing counties -- Kerry won just three."

I seem to remember hearing that we tried that before, and the liberal states invaded.

no. the majority of Americans are moderate or passive about politics. We should stand united and not let political issues divide us too much.
