    How far do you think this will go?

    At this point, I would not be all that surprised if something like this happened.

    I wouldn't mind losing Tucson, but I wouldn't want to lose the agricultural areas to the south of Tucson.


    Oops! Forgot to add this to it...

    Looks like a joke to me. Certainly the first link appears to be a spoof site.

    How would that affect you?
    When I was a kid I was told "We do these things not because they're easy, but because they're hard"

    Now all I hear is " I won't do anything unless there's something in it for me"

    It would make it considerably more difficult for him to stay in the lines when coloring state maps.

    Well yeah, I like my fresh veggies and fresh fruits in the winter, and many of them come from southern Arizona. I can't hardly grow anything edible in the winter at 7000 feet above sea level, now can I?

    Is there some trade sort of trade embargo in the plans then?

    They could probably still throw fruits and veggies over the fence you'll no doubt build around your new border.
    You can just stand on your side, catching the bounty from the sky...manna from heaven, if you will.

    I wouldn't put it past them.

    Besides, our state government needs the extra revenue from the sale of their agricultural products.

    But they don't like your state government.
    Which is very Tea Partyesque, don't you think?
