Poor Glenn Beck...
Our nation, apparently, is crumbling around the feet of Fox News and syndicated radio show host Glenn Beck. He believes that thanks to President Obama, we are literally committing suicide as a nation -- and he wants out!
I sign into this union, and I can never, ever get out? No matter what the government does, I can never get out? That only leaves me with one other option. That doesn't seem like a good option.
Glenn thinks that if he and his fellow travelers can't secede from the United States, than the only other option is suicide. But that's a little melodramatic. In fact, U.S. law gives Beck an easy way to jump ship: renounce his citizenship. According to the State Department, all he has to do to officially cut his citizenship ties with the United States is to make:
a formal renunciation of nationality before a diplomatic or consular officer of the United States in a foreign state, in such form as may be prescribed by the Secretary of State
That's right, Glenn -- you can leave any time you want to. Just head off to a foreign country, visit a U.S. embassy, and sign a piece of paper renouncing your citizenship once and for all. You don't even have to pretend to cry when you do it.
If you honestly believe that the United States has been put on a path of certain destruction, if you think it's so bad that you think your only options are secession or suicide, and if you don't love America enough to work within the system created by our founding fathers, then take a hike. I think we'll get by just fine without you.
