Texas to withdraw from the United States of America
Is this BS or what?
https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/pet...nment/BmdWCP8B Peacefully grant the State of Texas to withdraw from the United States of America and create its own NEW government. The US continues to suffer economic difficulties stemming from the federal government's neglect to reform domestic and foreign spending. The citizens of the US suffer from blatant abuses of their rights such as the NDAA, the TSA, etc. Given that the state of Texas maintains a balanced budget and is the 15th largest economy in the world, it is practically feasible for Texas to withdraw from the union, and to do so would protect it's citizens' standard of living and re-secure their rights and liberties in accordance with the original ideas and beliefs of our founding fathers which are no longer being reflected by the federal government. |

if a RWNJ circle jerk is all they want, they can have that. But, if they want people who offer a different opinion, they are going to have to speak up against the personal attacks. If not, they can have their circle jerk to themselves.

I am surrounded by nutter butters, thx JDiddy!, that think it is a swell idea, including my state rep. No way this state becomes blue or even purple that quickly though. The Repubs in control have mastered the art of re-districting ie my comment that you don't know shit about Texas politics. I love this country and am first and foremost a Patriot. I love our institutions such as the GE every four years, whether my guy wins or not. It's why you haven't heard much whining out of me about the outcome. It is what it is and I fear there will be a hefty price to pay for all of us. I love this state too so all you guys from Iowa bagging on it, well yeahhhh, think about where YOU live for a second. As far as me not being here when and if Texas ever would successfully secede, yeah I'll be long gone by then, wearing the wooden coat, pushing up daisies, 6ft under etc. Lastly sorry for the troll. You guys just get so worked up over nada. Sorry for the late reply. I was at the office catching up on paperwork. BBL dinner and sexy time...and football ![]() |

In the future, can you please refrain from trolling when I'm involved in the conversation. I like to believe that what people are typing is the real thoughts, beliefs of their position.

Let 'em try it. If Texas gets the assets that are already in place, including Federal assets, nobody's getting through there from the South. I'd bet on a pick up truck full of Texans against a Mexican tank. Some of you guys have no idea what kind of people you are talking about here.

OMG! OMG! OMG!
![]() As of Saturday November 10, 2012, 15 States have petitioned the Obama Administration for withdrawal from the United States of America in order to create its own government. States following this action include: Louisiana, Texas, Montana, North Dakota, Indiana, Mississippi, Kentucky, North Carolina, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, New Jersey, Colorado, Oregon and New York. These States have requested that the Obama Administration grant a peaceful withdrawal from the United States. These citizen generated petitions were filed just days after the 2012 Presidential election. Louisiana was the first State to file a petition a day after the election by a Michael E. from Slidell, Louisiana. Texas was the next State to follow by a Micah H. from Arlington, Texas. The government allows one month from the day the petition is submitted to obtain 25,000 signatures in order for the Obama administration to consider the request. The Texas petition reads as follows: The US continues to suffer economic difficulties stemming from the federal government’s neglect to reform domestic and foreign spending. The citizens of the US suffer from blatant abuses of their rights such as the NDAA, the TSA, etc. Given that the state of Texas maintains a balanced budget and is the 15th largest economy in the world, it is practically feasible for Texas to withdraw from the union, and to do so would protect it’s citizens’ standard of living and re-secure their rights and liberties in accordance with the original ideas and beliefs of our founding fathers which are no longer being reflected by the federal government. As of 12:46 am, Sunday, signatures obtained by Louisiana, 7,358; Texas, 3,771; Florida, 636; Georgia, 475; Alabama, 834; North Carolina, 792; Kentucky, 467; Mississippi, 475; Indiana, 449; North Dakota, 162; Montana, 440; Colorado, 324; Oregon, 328; New Jersey, 301 and New York, 169. Many more States are expected to follow. http://www.examiner.com/article/15-s...nited-states-1 Finally I can afford to visit another country |
