'Tis the business of little minds to shrink; but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death." Thomas Paine, The American Crisis, No. 1, December 19, 1776 "Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigues of supporting it." Thomas Paine, The American Crisis, No. 4, September 11, 1777 "I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. Already they have raised up a monied aristocracy that has set the government at defiance. The issuing power (of money) should be taken away from the banks and restored to the people to whom it properly belongs." -- Thomas Jefferson, U.S. President. "A majority of the people of the United States have lived all of their lives under emergency rule. For 40 years, [79 years now in 2012] freedoms and governmental procedures guaranteed by the Constitution have in varying degrees been abridged by laws brought into force by statutes of national emergency." |

Talking about leaving tyranny isnt treason...it's the states rights. The government is for the people by the people, not the other way around. 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! One of these days... A *REAL* rain is gonna come and wash all this scum off the streets. |

IssueX User ID: 14348632 United States 11/12/2012 04:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 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 [link to www.sodahead.com] 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 ."

You remember the floods in the Midwest? The locals took care of it and got it corrected....look at the people out east....sitting around waiting for someone to come save them. Are libs more educated and conservatives? I believe the word libs are looking for is "indoctrinated". |

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.

Travis Bickle (OP) Vigilantes need love too.... User ID: 26788702 United States 11/12/2012 04:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm shocked that the first reply isn't Phen deleting your thread, as she so enjoys doing when a poster disagrees with her and/or puts her in proper place. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27613896 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. One of these days... A *REAL* rain is gonna come and wash all this scum off the streets. |

Whatever ObamaAppleseed says seems to go...Better learn some other languages just as a precaution. He has no plan to put people back to gainful employment so the other choice is to go on the dole. When you do that he has you and yours. |
