BREAKING - Texas Secession Petition just keeps growing and growing!
[link to petitions.whitehouse.gov (secure)]

Let's see how long it takes for a reply....

UPDATE-
When I first posted this, there were 25,038 signatures on this petition. As I update, it's 43,131 That is closing in on Twenty THOUSAND signatures in the last few hours.

I believe that it is mostly because this info is now spreading to the MSM and more will follow suit.

I want to reiterate that I do NOT believe that this will result in the secession of Texas (Or any other state for that matter) But what it WILL succeed in is getting our voice heard, beyond the squelch. Which, in turn, will allow for other Change... There's still Hope. Let's just keep moving, Forward!

Precisely...

Though I believe that their "response" will be something to the effect of a letter stating the actual process for secession, (which hasn't been followed here) and indicate that the signatures are not all from Texas residents.

This is why these secession petitions are somewhat moot. What we need is a nationwide cause... Let's say, For a recount!

It's just a sign of people's frustrations, no different than when the liberals were encouraging Vermont to secede after Bush won a second term

People have the right to show their dissatisfaction

I love Texas, but are you following this story as well?

It is one I was tracking in 2010, appears to be picking up steam again...it works within our current government's framework, which is always the wise way to go when possible

We Are 3 States Away From A Constitutional Convention Towards Healthcare Reform

Posted 07/08/10

Governors of 35 states have already filed suit against the Federal Government for imposing unlawful burdens upon them. It only takes 38 (of the 50) States to convene a Constitutional Convention.

Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution -

"Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators and/or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States ."

That's great! the secession movement will be on fire very soon. But beware, states that want to secede will need military protection. Make sure that your service men and women abide by the people first or at least prepare for bloody revolution. The time has come!

I didn't realize that I was disagreeing with her or putting her in any place. As a matter of fact. I simply wanted to post that this "magic number" had been reached. Many people still don't even know of the petition availability online.
