| SeekWisdom User ID: 14695767 United States11/13/2012 05:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If at first you don’t succeed … secede! That seems to be the attitude of the folks in 20 states who have reacted to the re-election of Barack Obama by petitioning for independence from the United States. Anyone over thirteen can sign up on the White House website and it requires only a first name and last initial to do so. The petitioners in Texas have reached the threshold of 25,000 signatures necessary to trigger an official response from the administration. The answer will doubtless be a big fat "no" – and Governor Rick Perry has affirmed that Texas should stay in the Union. But it’s interesting to note just how many in the Lone Star state would rather go it alone than suffer "four more years".

I understand................................. I don't think the Govt with its troops, trucks, its tanks, fighter jets and other weapons of mass destruction will agree................... Just saying.................................... Hope Perry has some good shooters and plenty of firepower. What about the African-American community in Texas? They are in hypnotic thrall to Obama. Can you count on them to support the Lone Star State? Not saying this woould not be a good idea....... Just saying..........think of the repercussions. And consider the chances of it actually succeeding. That is all.  |

Read the whole post before spouting off. If we want this we will have to do it with blood and sweat and then the gadsden flag. Obviously I support it.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 24537507 United States11/13/2012 11:01 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hah, That petition is over 80,000 now. This is so interesting. I'm certain it will not get a serious response from the govt. but it sure is geeting alot of play in the news media. I love the America I grew up in and can't imagine not being part of it but that America has been disappearing for decades but there is still a bit of it left. I love my state of Texas too and Texas always comes first with Texans. I'm not taking a side on it but I will enjoy sitting and watching the fireworks.  |
