Matthew's Modest Proposal

The United States of Canada and Jesusland. If there were a federal referendum on this, it would pass easily (unless the Jesuslanders are really intent on persecuting us, or they realize that they're a third world nation without us).

In reality, though, the Candians don't want much to do with us blue-staters, either. We are God's unwanted children, so we'd better adapt to that idea. I see a bad moon rising, as John Fogerty said. It's time to drop the facades and start sticking together.

Incidentally, I've found this map very useful the last few days, but there's a problem with it that's replicated far too often. Can you spot it? They put a slight third-dimensional tilt on the map so that the south comes into the foreground, exaggerating the size of the red landmass. I already get that the other side blankets the country (though if landmass decides elections, Bryan won four times). This is tantamount to spitting in my face.
