The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy | |

Can we call it North Cuba instead? I did notice that they lay claim to The Magic Kingdom. Funny, that. |

Excellent idea. They could call it New Cuba. Better yet... make it a separate country and build a border fence. |

Did you read the resolution? Over two thirds of the state's total taxes—sales and otherwise—are collected down there. North Florida wouldn't be getting rid of their rifraff; they'd be throwing away their income. |

One third is Disney. It will become the new Jerusalem, bitterly contested. Who knew? |

reminds me of north italy wanting to separate from the southerners (everyone south of rome) every country/state is going to have districts which are more productive than others. should nyc secede from upstate ny? should manhattan and brooklyn throw out the bronx and staten island? should the east side get rid of the west side? |

Florida has long been known as the state with the largest cultural divide, depending on location within the state. It goes from the lowest of lows in terms of Deliverance style folk, to the highest metropolitan highs, in terms of Miami Vice. I guess you could imagine that that sort of state might want to split up. Oh yeah, all the retired people are there too. What a cornucopia. |
| As a good person, I implore you to do as I, a good person, do. Be good. Do NOT be bad. If you see bad, end bad. End it in yourself, and end it in others. By any means necessary, the good must conquer the bad. Good people know this. Do you know this? Are you good? | |

People in Pennsylvania say they have a huge divide. In Illinois, it's Chicago vs. downstate. I'm wondering if part of the problem isn't the gerrymandering that has occurred over time. Perhaps we should hire illiterate Latvian sheep herders to draw boundaries for voting districts - or let D'oh do it. Might help to unite that nation - in disdain for the people who redistricted the country. |

I'd say people who live in Manhattan and Brooklyn would agree with you.

“Whether we remain in one confederacy, or form into Atlantic and Mississippi confederacies, I believe not very important to the happiness of either part. Those of the western confederacy will be as much our children and descendants as those of the eastern. And I feel myself as much identified with that country in future time as with this. And did I now foresee a separation at some future day, yet I should feel the duty and the desire to promote the western interests as zealously as the eastern, doing all the good for both portions of our future family which should fall within my power.” - Thomas Jefferson |
