Here's Mike Peroutka, a great Constitutional Scholar who knows that the key to understanding our founding document is to read the Bible. He's also a member of the neo-Confederate League of the South, an advocate of secession, and the Republican nominee for Anne Arundel County Council in Maryland. And he loves his country, although we aren't entirely sure what country that is. You see, following a speech he gave at the 2012 League of the South national conference in Alabama, he was recorded asking the audience to stand up and sing the "National Anthem" -- and then he launched into a round of "Dixie," with the audience enthusiastically singing along:

Strictly speaking, this schmuck is in Maryland, so 37th.
Actually, that surprised me, but I guess if you count big military installations in a fairly small state, hmm, I guess.
Incidentally, if we&#039;re seceding, fuck the Six Californias. Give me Oregon and Washington, and the Left Coast Republic will kick ass. We can even give the rural areas some of the autonomy they want, because we won&#039;t be supporting the fucking Southeast any longer.
We will have to do something about the OC, but financial regulation will probably suffice.
