    Republicans have always had a craving for oil. They'll go to war for it, they'll kill our own for it, they'll kill off any other sensible legislation for it. I say if Republicans are so thirsty for oil, send all of them up to Alaska and they'll have plenty of oil to drink. Just keep it away from the rest of us.

    Yeah, cons don't want the coast, because they are going to contaminate it with off shore oil drilling.

    Notice how the cons ignore threads that expose their evil.....

    They shiver to bring up that BP oil spill. Or that massive spill that occurred in South Dakota last year. Republicans are the Party of Oil. Stay tuned for more oil leaks and spills on offshore sites to come.

    America is an empire. There's never been higher moral reasons. It's always been game of thrones bullshit.

    They will never split unless the US forces them to split after bankruptcy recovery hearings or something drastic like that. Libs will continue to overtax and over regulate until farms and businesses go away and leave the dems to fend for themselves, which they can't do.

    Cities can't exist without the country to provide resources.

    Infrastructure provides resources, which the cons keep letting it go to hell...They give $1.5 trillion to corporations instead of investing in infrastructure. Cons destroyed family farms decades ago. Only corporate farms exist today. Crops rot in the fields, because the cons deported all the crop pickers. Trump is shredding all the trade agreements with Mexico and South America...the U.S. can't grow crops in the winter, except for California and Florida, which won't feed the whole country....Hope you like paying $10.00 a pound for meat and $6.00 for a head of lettuce.

    You don't use or benefit from oil in any form?

    Impressive.

    And impossible.

    So what is hilarious? Other than being a ridiculously one-sided hit piece, I don't see what is particularly funny. I say more power to them. Split the rural areas from the left coast and let them tax themselves into non-existence.

    I have a brother in law doing well with his cattle business. He isn’t “corporate “. My father in law kept a half acre garden until he was 85. I raise chickens and buy my vegetable from a man down the street. I don’t see my grocery bill going up significantly anytime soon.
