Last Nights FOX News Interview with Pat Buchanan - Eastern Shore of Maryland Secession Movement

Last night Sean Hannity interviewed Pat Buchanan about America's Balkanization.  During the interview It was mentioned that Marylanders are 'fed-up with the legislation that is emanating out of Annapolis' and that a secession movement is already underway.

Many eastern shore residences are tired of being manipulated and pillaged out of their property, money, and low paying wages.  Housing foreclosures are the 2nd highest in the nation and the areas workforce numbers are abysmal.  Flush taxes have doubled, and now we even have a rain tax.  New Phosphorous regulations are underway and eastern shore residents are being squeezed as Wicomico's residents incomes decline.

SBYnews broke this story months ago and has been covering the inequities that currently exist between our western shore counterparts.  Currently- our eastern shore State Delegation only comprises 9 representatives up against 179 western shore counterparts.  Yet the eastern shore land area consist of more than 1/3 of the total Maryland land area.

This is a must see video news broadcast for every red blooded American eastern shore man.

At least try to have a serious conversation. Secession?? Not so much, just a fantasy for a few fanatics.

I agree. From a geographical perspective Maryland and Virginia Eastern Shore should join up with Delaware. At least in Delaware I could legally own the 1898 gun my grandfather left me in 1954. And I haven't shot at anybody since Nam.

Have you ever heard of the Maryland Land Conservancy?

Well there is a guy who works for them and they want your property. A guy named Josh Hastings is running for the Wicomico County Council and he is telling everyone that he is a Moderate. If you are a Republican or a conservative Democrat do not listen to these lies. This person is aligned with the worst of the worst Democrats. One he worked for was State Senator Joan Conway and she is one of the worst Democrats in the General Assembly. She supports gun control, land confiscation and same sex marriage. How can someone work for this woman if you don't have the same views as she does?? Laura Mitchell is also aligned with these same people and we already know her views. If you don't want the government taking your guns, property and taxes then you need to vote conservative and vote for Republican.

Vote Republican

Wicomico County Executive
Bob Culver

Wicomico County Council

Marc Kilmer

This needs to happen. The delmarva peninsula is a region to itself. As a life long resident, my identity has never been with the state of Maryland but with Delmarva. Most Virginians don't even know the eastern shore of Virginia exists! In land area, we would be comparable to the land size of New Jersey. I think Western Maryland should also do the same. We have been the Bastard stepchildren for too many years!

The point is that the eastern shore of MD is very small population wise compared to the rest of the state. We are all marsh land and farm, so we don't get as many representatives.

I am a republican and I have heard of the land conservancy. While I would never put my properties into the conservancy, I have no problem with people that choose to do so. It is a voluntary program and people have the right to decide what they want to do or not do with their property. Voting republican on a local basis is a good thing but in MD it is doubtful that there will ever be a republican governor. Look at the results of MD elections over the past 40+ years.

That's the whole point of this article. When we secede that will be fixed. We'll still be a part of the US - only difference is we will pick up (2) Senators. The Legislative representation of our new State will be entirely different from what it is now.

I'm all for it!!

We should have seceded along time ago. The western shore bureaucrats have literally ruined our lifestyles here on the eastern shore. My father informed me a long time ago that we were just (1) measly vote short of making it happen back in the 60s. And then the western shore representatives tried to make sure the move never happened again. What a shame for us eastern shore folks.

I couldn't agree more. Most Virginians have know clue where the Eastern Shore of Virginia is. They have no clue that it is part of their own state.

Marylanders know where the Eastern Shore of Maryland is because they flock to Ocean City. They are also familiar with Salisbury's out of control Mayor and City Council and crime rate.

Delaware.. Well that's Delaware.

What is sad is that we lost our biggest supporter of secession in the primaries to a old dip sh!t who turned on her friend and ran against him for his seat. RINO's are cut throats so watch out for them. She will never do the job that our state senator did. He will surely be missed.

Sorry but you are way off. This is america and people have the right to decide what to do with their property and assets. Before you label people, you should look in the mirror. I own properties in multiple counties in MD but am a technically a resident of FL. Florida is a republican state with no personal income tax and you are a republican stuck in a democratic state with high taxes, no future and another democrat governor in the fall.
Look at your history:
Number of Governors of Maryland by party affiliation[1]

Democratic 29
Federalist 9
Democratic-Republican 9
Republican 6

I wish our Lower Shore Counties could secede. It seems as though the only thing that our Governor succeeds at is more and more taxes. Who would have ever thought that we would have a flush tax. Or how about a rain tax. We've got them both and now another is on the horizon.

Anonymous said...

Whoever mentioned the state delegation thing is not responding to the general secession idea (and guys, it's secession, not succession), and they're also right. The editorial staff is stupid for using this as a premise for "oh look at us, we're not represented when we're so much land" well duh, it's because more people are on the western shore.

Also, it's perfect how the ideology of the elderly conservatives is to pick up their ball and storm off as sore losers when they can't get what they want, yet they proclaim to be the ones really advocating for democracy. Such short sightedness. Let's take this to its logical conclusion then: what happens when say the liberal parts of the shore (say, maybe, the are around SU and where the students live) wants out of your state? Do they automatically get to vote and then get 2 state senators of their own? How are you going to pay for SU and keep it up? What about OC, or parts of Kent Island that are bedroom communities for those in Annapolis? Do they get to leave too? You guys don't realize that what you're advocating for is actually MORE balkanization, which Patty Boy seems to be afraid of.

I have lived here all of my life and it has been the same ole same ole. The bottom line is that our eastern shore representation does NO GOOD! Even when they are in a cohesive mindset, it doesn't do any good because our region is always outnumbered. The western shore counties and cities get all of the luscious grants, ball parks, stadiums, while we get the chicken manure and criminals. I am all for a secession move, so let's move.

I agree with you and you are on the same page I am on. If these lands are given up to land conservancies and Program Open Space then our kids and grand kids will be forced to live in high density areas which will ultimately be ghettos. Anyone who supports liberal/progressive programs do not have a brain and should be disqualified from voting.

No.
What I am saying is that I made FL my domicile and enjoy the benefits of no state tax, ability to have a CCW, stand your ground law and able to use cellphone while driving without being pulled over by the police and searched. You must be on the side of Ireton and the likes if you continue to stay in MD. My vote counts in FL and yours is worthless in MD. It is now a democratic state and will continue to be. The eastern shore has no say in MD politics. Whine and complain all you want. If you read my post , you would understand that I would not put my properties into the conservatory, but this being america and all of the citizens having the right and option to do so, I have no problem with those that choose to do so. There are some people that may not have children or heirs and do not want their property developed. It would seem that development of rural property might be the only source of economic prosperity left on the eastern shore since there is no hope of attracting businesses to the area. I saw the writing on the wall many years ago and left for greener pastures. If you have half a brain, you would do the same.

I noticed that Norm Conway is putting up 4'x8' signs everywhere today. He is not putting them up as I don't think he is fit enough to dig the holes nor to mount he signs.

But I was thinking when I saw his signs going up about how utterly useless he is when you look at he grand scheme of things. What a tragedy for the eastern shore.

I am in agreement, all of the eastern shore elected state representatives are effectively useless representatives because the representative government structure is a flawed system. Not only are they ineffective in their annual dealings in Annapolis but it is also a manifest waste of taxpayers money.

What might we call our newly formed state.

JoeAlbero said...

Fruitland Generic Citizen, You must be a Liberal and nuts to boot.

Perhaps back in the 1950's and 1960's America was the greatest nation on earth. Today, it's the laughing stock of the entire World.

We are constantly invading into the rest of the worlds business and constantly at war, WHY, because the criminals in politics are making BILLIONS off of it and bringing ALL of us down financially because of their greed.

You Liberal Fools just keep following your leaders while there are MILLIONS of us looking to find FREEDOM elsewhere.

The ideas created by our founding fathers have been completely destroyed. Elections are rigged and leaders are chosen, not elected. Yeah, Obama got elected a second time, RIGHT!

They say there are three kind of people. Leaders, doers and followers. MOST of Americans are FOLLOWERS and I say that with ALL due respect.

Leaders create businesses and direct people. Doers show up for work every day and that's about as far as their life goes. Followers are the welfare, food stamp and politicians who suck at the public teat. They are the used car salesmen of this Country. They have NO CLUE what's under the hood. They have NO CLUE how hard it's been ridden yet they want top dollar because your life/credit is not perfect and you cannot afford a new car.

If only more Americans had more confidence. If only Americans would wake up and stop being doers and followers.

You see, I stepped up to the plate two ways. I created this Website to be a voice for most of you. I ran for Mayor because MOST of you didn't have the confidence, time, business experience or backbone to do what is BEST for America/Salisbury. Instead, the FOLLOWERS and DOERS allegedly voter for a person with NO proven experience, (like Obama too) and NO proven track record, even though he had been in Office for four years. Or is it just easier to rig an election?

Either way, the Sheeple go out of their way and take the time to VOTE only to wake up the next morning and find out that even though almost everyone you know voted for the guy who allegedly lost and yet it's almost impossible to prove.

Yeah, AMERICA isn't what it used to be, not at all. Liberals create Common Core to DUMB DOWN the most expensive INDUSTRY in America and the funniest part is, COLLEGE will become FOUR more years of education just to get our children and grandchildren to a 12th grade level.

AMERICA is a joke Mr. Fruitland and people like you are simply FOLLOWERS/DOERS who praise CHEATERS, Used Car Salesmen.

When things get REALLY sh!tty, the Liberals will step aside for a while, the Republicans will step in HOPING they can fix all that is broken only to learn AMERICA is now too far gone because the FOLLOWERS and DOERS STOPPED VOTING.

Yeah, like millions of other Americans, I'm looking for another place to call home because this place SUCKS and the people couldn't care less. I'll go to a place where Americans are welcomed, not taxed and punished to death. Obama and Hillary can have this America. I want nothing more to do with it.

Oh, so you know, Obama has created laws that will PUNISH any American who leaves this Country by TAXING the money you already paid FULL taxes on. So we have to BUY our way out of America too.
