I love how this KGB dude thinks America is going to completely disintegrate, but do so in large chunks that fall entirely along existing state boundaries.
Let's discuss!

I now intend on heading to Russia to pursue my destiny as a celebrated professor. (Their standards are clearly very low.)

Look at this smug asshole motherfucker. His theory sounds like it was lifted from an Onion article.

They pasted Bush's face on some other dude's head.

All the Floridians must be terrified that they will be ruled by the oppressively expansionistic Mexican government.
Someone should tell this dude that the economies of Texas, Florida and Georgia are significantly larger than Mexico's.
Schadenfreude and wishful thinking is an interesting way to run a political science curriculum.

That was more or less my reaction, but you said it more succinctly than my half-baked thought would have had it.

Surely Canada would snap up Alaska as well? Maybe Maine, too (though that could be wishful thinking on my part). We all know about that country's expansionistic tendencies.

Some Russian imperialist die hards have long coveted Alaska since Seward swindled them out of it 140 years ago. As for eastern Maine, I don't know if any Canadians are still smarting after the Treaty of Ghent or The Aroostook War.

I realize that, Chris, but Canada does have the advantage of being physically connected to Palinland, as well as sharing a language.

More to the point, would Canada really want to add a fair number of aging, drunk, and/or drugged slobs to its population? Surely it has enough already?

I thought it was good ol' Patty Buchanan for a second.

This map's projection seems pretty accurate to me: here in Canada we've had our eye on Kansas and Wyoming for a while now. We need a lot more empty space.

I've long thought the Four Corners region has been bubbling with tension.

You know, with Stephen Harper's apparent dreams of a great Canadian military-industrial complex and fantasies of adventurism, maybe North Dakota and Montana do have something new to worry about. Unless, of course, upper midwesterners want to become part of Greater Canada.
