Many have reacted to the loopy secession idea being pushed by state Reps Matt Shea and Bob McCaslin. The two legislators are hell-bent on seceding from Seattle area liberals and forming an Eastern Washington state of Liberty. Here's the top reactions to their not-worth-the-paper-it's-written on plan from HucksOnline commenters:

• Matthew Root: "Without west side tax dollars, eastern Washington would be named 'Bankrupt'."
• Sam Crawford: "I wonder if Heather Scott is feeling left out?" (That's Scott as in Redoubt darling state Rep. Scott, R-Blanchard).
• EdeninCDA: "You know what...? This makes me feel better - - we aren't alone in the wild, wild, far right wacko category!"
• SpudBob: "I am working on a poem here. What rhymes with 'really dumb idea'."
• TWolf22: "Is this April 1st?"
