America: just one Puerto Rico from becoming fascist.

Much like DC, Puerto Rico has it's periodic bouts of thinking it'll become a full state, with Senators and everything. Freepers assume this is yet another precursor to fascism.

Lera has some data:

Every single Puerto Rican I ever met loved socialism

Para-Ord.45 knows what is happening:

Open borders, felons voting,Puerto Ricans voting...

Totalitarians need votes NOW, November is coming fast.

Vince Ferrer thinks every time is a good time for Civil War talk!

Odd that our last civil war was also preceeded by years of the free state/slave state territorial games that are being recreated in the census, immigration reform, now statehood issues.

upstanding has predictions:

within the next couple of years, we're likely to see the US expand to 52 states in order to ensure communist control over the federal legislature... any bets on when America's Mussolini and his compliant media is going to launch the campaign to pack "expand" the Supreme Court?

muawiyah wants to make separate states out of all the cities, to cement Republican control.

carve out New York City/Longisland as a state giving us two new Republican Senators, AND carve out Chicago, giving us another couple of new Republican Senators, and maybe carve out San Fran/Sacramento/Hollyweird/Beverly Hills as a new state, and that gives us another two Republican Senators.

That's 6 new Republican Senators, and most of the worst lot of Democrats find themselves cooped up in states that cannot finance themselves.

That's more fascist than what Freepers think Obama is doing!

Mobilemitter goes wit hthe old standby - the rape analogy:

like asking some young teen age girl, "Do you want to continue being a virgin?" Well, most probably don't. However, some may be thinking about marriage,some maybe thinking about some cute guy in college or perhaps the 'love of their life' which they have yet to meet. You see, that question lets you just....fill in the blank with whatever CHANGE you might be dreaming of. Much like Obama did with his election campaign.

Imagine the surprise on the young girls face when the very next week a guy shows up to rape her. Yep, she is no longer a virgin. Maybe not exactly what she had 'hoped' for....but hey, this is the way you get things done today's progressive politics.
