That's why I called it stray talk. But it's there. Hell, even The Guardian entertained the idea a few weeks back.
Yeah. But I mean, you're still doing it too much credit, right? It's not anywhere near the same process. I guess you probably live in Texas? I used to as well. No one thinks about that on any meaningful level except Perry's idiots when they're trying to garner kneejerk votes from people who think it's funny to say that Lone Star is the national beer of Texas.
Honestly? I don't think I'm giving it much credit at all. First I admitted it was stray talk, then I linked to a Wikipedia article showing how the people who take the subject seriously are a half bit loony. Even in my original comment I said such a thing would "be a bad idea." We're honestly in total agreement here from the get go.
