Where will the Repukes move when Obama wins?
They're not gonna hang around here if Obama is as bad as their ads say he is.

Canada's too cold for Southerners and they have socialized medicine, along with equal rights for homosexuals.

Mexico has too many Mexicans.

What do you think they'll do?

12. Prophetic, you are...
The Dominionists up there actually see Alaska as a refuge for true believers during the Tribulation. That's preached at their VP nominee's church as doctrine. Utah may take some refugees, as well, providing they convert.

They'll be as miserable there as anywhere else. A good friend told me a long time ago that "A Republican is somebody who just knows that somewhere out there someone is having a good time and they're determined to put a stop to it." They were relatively harmless back then and co-mingling between the species was kind of fun at times.

2. Australia
The only English-speaking country that is not significantly less conservative than the U.S.

Of course they won't ACTUALLY move there; it's just where they will talk about moving to.

22. I say we give them their own country...Call it NeoConistan or something
Give them the desert between Arizona and Nevada. They can erect crosses and fences and churches and they can all get together and cheat and rob and speak in tounge. The can have giant outdoor Jumbotrons with Faux News blaring 24 hours a day. I think they can have Wasila Alaska too.

24. There is one of the canary islands which would be good for them
I don't know how many people on here have heard about it, But one of the canary Islands has a massive fault that runs through he whole Island and it have been suggested that it could collapse into the sea at any time. There is however the small drawback of the fact that if this Island collapses the resulting tsunami will wipe out the whole eastern seaboard, Caribbean,and god knows where else area the atlantic ocean.

Just don't send any of the fuckers to Britain Please.

28. They'll just cling to their religion and guns and hate
as they always do. I hate to say it but racial crimes may be up in some areas. We've had some graffiti racial incidents in Oregon-I don't know how the south will handle a black man having power. Poorly, I bet. But it's the best thing that could happen to this country.

30. Just as long as they...
stay the fuck out of Mexico, I'm happy. I have too many friends who live in OK and TX to wish an influx of more idiots there, though. And plus, I like both places, it's the people that blow goats.

No big bad federal government!

No gun laws!

No taxes!

No welfare state!

39. Guess again!
No government = no president.

There is NO central government in Somalia.

Just a bunch of rival clans.

42. LOL!
I was thinking that the other day when the BBC was running a story on Somalia. A freeper paradise, with no government or taxes and everyone has guns. I don't know what they would do with all those African people though. Maybe we could exchange them for the freepers and bring them to America in their place.

40. That's going to be a tough one.
It has to be a place that is all white people, no gays, no religion other than Christianity. Hmm! Maybe they could found their own country somewhere on Antartica.

49. That wouldn't be fair to the penguins. I'm thinking Alaska, where the ecology is about to crash...
... and where Ms Prophecy's cult says it's a "place of refuge" for all the nutballs on the planet when everything unravels.

I'm truly sorry about the Native Alaskans, though, except I think they are already completely screwed and will have to relocate anyway. We could take up a collection to help them out as refugees.

50. Maybe they'll sit outside waiting for
the still-dead Marshall Applewhite and the Heaven's Gate bunch to come by and pick them up in the flying saucer that no doubt swooped in to scoop up all their souls after chugging down that nasty poison shit.

I bet if we take a trip to Mars, they're frolicking merrily in some dusty "canal" surrounded by unbreathable gases. Except when you're mostly dead, it's not really necessary to breathe. Which should be cool for most of them because that's one issue...preserving the environment...they'll never have to address.

I hope all those Republicans are very happy on their new planet.
