Vermont planning to secede from US
Update (5:30p): Apparently, this article is questionable in validity because of it's April 1st publishing date. Take it as you wish.
Not everyone is going to sit back and wait around for the president to get his act in order. Vermont is considering seceding from the United States. I think it's not a bad idea. From the article:

Over the past 50 years, the U.S. government has grown too big, too corrupt and too aggressive toward the world, toward its own citizens and toward local democratic institutions. It has abandoned the democratic vision of its founders and eroded Americans' fundamental freedoms.I think that the only way to return the country to a decent state would be to ditch our current government and model a new one after the European Union. The US is simply too big to be controlled in the way it is. Power should be returned to states, where they can cater to the needs of their people, not the country as a whole. Power needs to be removed from the central government because, as Bush has demonstrated, one person has too much power. Europe has it down, why don't we copy them?
