Looks like it's not just Texas that wants to secede from the US.
Long Island wants a divorce from "tyrannical" New York state. Yes, that's right, the
sand bar just south of Connecticut is tired of supporting those slackers in upstate New York and
want out now!
Suffolk legislators approved a home rule message Tuesday calling for a study and referendum on the merits of Long Island seceding from a "tyrannical" New York State government, though they are unlikely to be taking up muskets for an armed revolt.
The dormant Long Island secession movement awakened by presiding officer William Lindsay (D-Holbrook), who, angered by the regional payroll tax imposed by state lawmakers to fund the Metropolitan Transportation Authority bailout, called for a vote on the matter to register his anger about the new tax.
Where are the teabaggers when you need 'em?
