I thought you guys wanted to secede. We are just willing to allow you to do that. You must not be a Texas patriot.

It's exactly this kind of womanly waffling that makes me conclude we need to make the decision for them.

I live in Houston and wish Houston could secede from Texas.

Well much like the Republicans. Texans tend to be the party of no. If you suggest it they don't want it, even after they requested it.

I think Montana (especially considering that MT legislators have formally threatened to secede more times in recent history than Texas has), Wyoming, Idaho, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, and Alaska should be the first to go, right along with Texas.


You guys that want to teach Texas a lesson should get right on that plan to kick all of the aforementioned states out. Please, do us this favor. Remember, it's very important that you teach us this lesson, and to really "show us." I definitely think we need to be shown this lesson. Start making the necessary phone calls to Washington D.C., ASAP. Really need to get cracking on this plan.


And if you really want to teach those pesky "red states" a lesson, you might as well rid yourself of all of them, which is pretty much the bulk of the land mass of the United States, on average. California, Mass., New Jersey, New York, D.C. critters and those of like mind definitely need to show us who's boss. Sounds like a plan.

Does anyone REALLY care what a few blowhards think about Texas? The Texas bashers here are all from some jerkwater states that no one gives a crap about anyway. Must be the pits living in a vanilla state like you guys.

Nice try, freedom. Just Texas. The rest stay.

I guess we will have to take with us the 85% U.S. refining capacity, the 65% of the defense industry, the NASA brain trust, oil, natural gas, electricity production, Texas Medical Center, Port of Houston (2nd largest in U.S.), the Dallas financial sector, Dell Computer, EDS, Texas Instruments, Raytheon, UT, Rice, Baylor, TAMU, Texas National Guard, agriculture and livestock, low cost of living, strong work ethic, and good looking women with us, just to name a few.

Have fun without electricity, food, or gasoline.


Great definition of the Left's mindset.


As I described them;

"Ahh, one that insists upon making all of life's decisions for others.
Whether they like it or not."

You must think you are a god unto yourself for having the authority to "grant permission" to those that don't need it.
