Put Tom on the $2

 

 

 

Well, it was fun being part of the United States of America while it lasted.

As of 4:15p.m., Central time on Nov. 14, 2,576 signatures were on a petition to peacefully grant the state of Iowa the ability to withdraw from the U.S. and create its own new government.

It sounds like more trouble than it’s worth to me, though I’m curious to see the paper money. Tom Arnold’s face has to be on the 2-dollar bill, and that’s that.

  1. Does the idea of President Terry Branstad get anybody excited?

    Or Secretary of State Bob Vander Plats?

  2. “Sesh” folks, aren’t they respectfully traitors? Where is “Homeland Security” when you need it? Should br plenty of room in Cuba (either end) for those who like to have their entire world controled from the top down by those who don’t get elected by the majority.

  3. So, is thread open to political discussion… its so confusing :)

  4. In working thru the first 10 or 15 pages of signatures, looks like half or more of the signers are from other states. What a waste of time.

    Simply treason.
