A few weeks ago I gave a historical account about how the eastern shore of Maryland had attempted a secession move from the western shore. Remember how I pointed out that the Delaware legislature unanimously gave their consent to have us unite under their umbrella.
And then more recently, again, Lowell Stoltzfus sponsored State legislation for secession in an attempt to have us decide our own fate through self-determination. Don't think this is something that was just conjured-up on a whim. It holds validity. Joe has repeated pointed out on this very blog the vast disparity in DE Real Estate property taxes verses Maryland not to mention the sales tax issue. And I can tell you first hand that I hear about these issues from my own customers on a daily basis.
Well tonight, Glen Beck will have a special on how our fellow countrymen view the prospect of a severed States. Texas never wanted to become part of our Union and that view is held widely even up to this very day.
Could Maryland's eastern shore be the very first State to declare its independence? Rifts are growing in California whereby Governor Schwarzenegger wants more of the Federal pie. So also in New York. And even here on the eastern shore when I ask the Comptroller's office for a formula to show how much of the sales tax collections are being returned back into our locality - Wicomico - they say it is also often requested from other jurisdictions . . .but nothing is ever provided to give an accurate accounting. Instead, tensions continue to mount.
On Today's Glen Beck Program Is America headed for a breakup? A Russian analyst has predicted that the United States will decline and divide into separate parts, according to the Drudge Report. Glenn has talked about the rising disenfranchisement in the country and how states aren't necessarily bound to stick around -- is it possible for states to start bailing? Glenn shows how he thinks the new country will look in this amazing illustration. Read the transcript.

Unsolved Mystery; Obama's Birth Certificate... The Saga Continues
This is posted for the PHD and all the others who continue to question why "the right wing racists" continue to ask questions about the President Elects failure to produce documents.
Every American should be proud of the accomplishments of Senator Obama in being elected by an overwhelming majority to the highest office in the land.
This accomplishment is being tarnished by his refusal to provide his birth certificate, proof that he did not give up his American citizenship to attend Indonesian Schools (which only allowed Indonesian Citizens) and copies of his College records to see if he was enrolled as a US Citizen or an Indonesian citizen.
Allan Keyes, a black man who ran for President is suing in the State of California for Senator Obama to produce these documents, so its not an issue of race, its an issue of honor.
The people simply want the answers to the man so can be given the honor and respect due as President of the United States of America.

You Wanted PROOF, Here's PROOF!
Click on images to enlarge. Some of you may have to print these documents to read them. However, this is graphic details of Mrs. Mayers wrong doings. Now, for ALL of those people defending her and or the School, perhaps you'll think twice the next time you want to challenge us.
Some words of wisdom
- Some days you're the dog, some days you're the hydrant.
- The next time you feel like complaining, remember: Your garbage disposal probably eats better than 30% of hungry people in this world.
- Ever notice that the people who spend money on beer, cigarettes and lottery tickets are always complaining that they are broke and not feeling well?
- No one listens until you make a mistake.
- Beware of the toes you step on today. Those toes could be attached to the ass you may have to kiss tomorrow.
- Despite the cost of living, it remains very popular.

PAC-14 and Global Warming – Part II
It never ceases to amaze me. People on the left seem to think that all they have to do is change the wording a little bit and the stupid masses (that's you and me) will just fall in line like so many sheep. This is exactly what Mike Goodson, Mike Pretl and the rest of the wannabe PAC-14 pirates are attempting right now.
In a conversation I had just last week with one of this merry little gang I was actually told that THEIR approach -
is the CONSERVATIVE approach to managing PAC-14. I'm still laughing.
Their argument goes something like this:
Allowing the Wicomico County Council and the Mayor of Salisbury (with confirmation by the city council) to appoint the PAC-14 board is equivalent to government control. Such government control will inevitably lead to CENSORSHIP and politicization of PAC-14's content. Only governance by a COMMUNITY board will assure that THE PEOPLE maintain control.
I'll admit that the argument sounds great. There is not one ounce of truth to it, but it sounds great.

Another Viewpoint on the Obama Birth Certificate Debate
There has been a lot of activity from people who are claiming that President Elect Obama has provided PROOF of eligablilty to run for president in the form of a valid birth certificate.
The debate has brought too much controversy and it should end.
The debate should end by Obama coming clean and producing the documents to show he did not give up his citizenship while living abroad Indonesia as an Indonesian Citizen.
The President elect needs to open his records from Harvard to prove that his enrollment was as an American citizen, not a foreign student.
Did Obama give up his American citizenship by going to schools that only allowed Indonesian citizens?
To those on both sides: Please watch the video before ranting
