Every politician on the far right has went down the ol' Secession Road. It gets your name out to fringe groups etc..I don't have a problem with that, Texans have heard this same song and dance for over 150 years now. It goes in one ear and out the other. [/quote]
Original Message
How would Old Glory look with 30 stars instead of 50? As far-fetched as it may sound, the White House might soon be forced by its own rules to examine the question.
On Nov.7, the day after President Barack Obama was re-elected, the White House’s website received a petition asking the administration to allow Louisiana to secede.
If 25,000 people sign the petition by Dec. 7, it will “require a response” from the Obama administration, according to published rules of the White House’s online “We the People” program.
