And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

The states redrawn
I found this late last night, and now I've lost the link, but this is a map with the state lines redrawn and relabeled to equalize them for population.
I think the state of Shiprock would be a fine place to live.
Shiprock would suit me just fine. So would Salt Lake. But the place that I plan to move might be in the State of Phoenix. I can't quite tell from the map. It might have to be redrawn by about ten miles to accommodate me. If you could do that, I'd be in. Or I could just say F-it and move to Durango, secure in the new boundaries and the right to keep and bare.
But what would happen to Harry Reid? He'd be out of a job. Maybe he could move in with Pelosi?
Yes, he'd find a new home there filled with "man love" for him. To be frank, I always thought that Harry needed a good 'rogering' by his constituents in San Francisco to understand how the rest of the country feels.

The state of Yerba Buena would welcome him with open arms.
