And John Quincy Adams, though a staunch unionist, declared in 1839, in a speech celebrating the Jubilee of the Constitution,

The indissoluble link of union between the people of the several states of this confederated nation is, after all, not in the right but in the heart. If the day should ever come (may Heaven avert it!) when the affections of the people of these States shall be alienated from each other; when the fraternal spirit shall give way to cold indifference, or collision of interests shall fester into hatred, the bands of political associations will not long hold together parties no longer attracted by the magnetism of conciliated interests and kindly sympathies; and far better will it be for the people of the disunited states to part in friendship from each other, than to be held together by constraint. Then will be the time for reverting to the precedents which occurred at the formation and adoption of the Constitution, to form again a more perfect Union by dissolving that which could no longer bind, and to leave the separated parts to be reunited by the law of political gravitation to the center.24




Foreign writers who had studied the Constitution concluded that a state could secede from the compact. Tocqueville wrote:

The Union was formed by the voluntary agreement of the States; and in uniting together they have not forfeited their nationality, nor have they been reduced to the condition of one and the same people. If one of the States chooses to withdraw from the compact, it would be difficult to disprove its right of doing so, and the Federal Government would have no means of maintaining its claims directly either by force or right.17

Tyranny, right.

If you think Obama is a tyrant, then you have never seen a tyrant yet.

If you do, why don't state why you are living in a tyranny.

This may not be very obvious, but what I meant was : "why don't you state why you think you are living in a tyranny."

why don't you state why I am not living in a nascent tyranny? The signs,portents and indicators are everywhere. The fact that you don't see it doesn't make it less true.

obama, like every politician thinks only of power over the lives of other people.


People like you may be comfortable with this. I am not.

Every politician is not a tyrant, just because he is a politician. After all, all those who govern us are politicians.

Benjamin Disraeli was not a tyrant.
George Washington was not a tyrant.
Clinton was not a tyrant.

You may want to be "governed". I don't. Being "governed" isn't a fit description for free men.

If they weren't restrained virtually every politician would be stalin.

It is the nature of the psychopathic narcissists who pose as servants in order to become the master.

Too bad you are unable to understand this simple truth.

Only because they were bound by chains they could not break.

Plus one to you sir if I had one more to give some just don't get it and never will

Plus one to you sir if I had another to give.

No, because they just weren't tyrants, that's all.

So WHAT exactly don't I get, according to you ?

Commander of the Alamo February, 24, 1836

To the people of Texas and all Americans in the world:
Fellow citizens and compatriots:

I am beseiged, by a thousand or more of the Mexicans under Santa Anna. I have sustained continual bombardment and for twenty-four hours and have not lost a man. The enemy has demanded a surrender at discretion, otherwise, the garrison are to be put to the sword, if the fort is taken. I have answered the demand with a cannon shot, and our flag still waves proudly from the walls. I shall never surrender or retreat. Then, I call on you in the name of liberty, of patriotism and everthing dear to the American character, to come to our aid, with all dispatch. The enemy is receiving reinforcements daily and will no doubt increase to three or four thousand in four or five days. If this call is neglected, I am determined to sustain myself as long as possible and die like a soldier who never forgets what is due to his own honor and that of his country. Victory or death.

William Barret Travis Lt. Col. Comdt.

The rest is history..And that my friend is the spirit of a true Texan!

“You can all go to hell…I am going to Texas”

~ Davy Crockett, 1836

The question remains now : where is Texas going?

Petitions are just a vehicle for data mining. Run the fuck away!

spoken like a typical left-wing shill-o-tard.

you and your ilk have all the credibility of a squid.

What isn't rhese days ?
If you really don't what anything "mined" about yourself, you'd almost have to walk around draped in a "burka" like those muslim women who are aolmost completely hidden under their clothes.

Squids, it is true, are incredible creatures.
