Rivera: "What, Sean? Stop it. You're an American patriot, I know you, I love you... This is a nutjob statement!"

In one breath the Insean Manity asks doughy pantload about Perry's secession comments then in the next breath Insean Manity is screeching "he didn't say it". Jebus, these uneducated reich-wingers continue to prove that reality in their world is a moment-to-moment concept.
I especially like the moment where The Mannity says to Rivera... "let me educate you..."
On what? How to be the dumbest bastard on TV??
Texans have been making noise about seccession forever. I lived there for 7 years and was called yankee more time than I can count.
However, as I reminded them : If it wasn;'t for yankees they'd still be living in swamps, walking barefoot and picking their teeth with grass.
Sad truth is, these folks don't seem to realize how much the federal government pumps into Texas (80 some odd cents for every tax dollar they send into the federal government gets sent back to Texas). Take away their federal infrastructure. Take away their military bases. Take away their tax dollars. OK, go ahead, secede. You'll be back looking to get back into the union in about, oh, 5 days, or less once we force you back in.
Perry has proven himself a serious nutjob. Hannity, we knew that he was already. To talk of seceding from the union, is to actually be called a traitor to your country. If all of those "patriotic" Texans would like to be called that, I'm not so sure.
The Democrats and Republicans currently control the game. Well let’s change the game!
When Geraldo and Goldberg are the voices of reason in a crowed right-wing nut panel...something is truely wrong.
Or right, depends on how you view it.
