"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Progressive Pundit Welcomes Succession From the USA
“An American progressive can only witness all this [Scottish independence vote] with a mix of bemusement and envy. You may recall that in the fall of 2004, after George Bush won the election, an exasperated blogger called for North America to be re-divided into the United States of Canada to the north and [sic] Jesusland to the south. The new, permanently progressive northern federation would include Canada, the northeast USA, the west coast, a few mostly liberal states such as Illinois and Minnesota across the middle -- and Jesusland would become its own country.” I like the idea myself, but the name “Jesusland”, not so much.
