Texas talk
Leonard Pitts writes today about Texas Gov. Rick Perry's dumb talk about secession.
There's actually some sort of organization behind this idea in the Lone Star State, judging from the Texas Secede! Web site.
And Texas isn't the only state where a few people want to wrench themselves away from the U.S.A. Texas Secede! links to the Web site of the Second Vermont Republic, which offers a registry of other North American secessionist organizations.
It includes a listing for Southern Party of North Carolina at this Web site ... which, as you can see, has to do with travel, not secession. So much for the rebel cause here.
Actually, I'm not opposed to Texas secession, which might help alleviate our problem of illegal immigration from Mexico. Border security along the Rio Grande wouldn't be our concern anymore.
Unless we'd have the new problem of stopping Texans from crossing into Oklahoma.

Naw! Old Gov Rick is simply BS's the Tea Party crowd about secession! The real question should be why Gov Rick keeps hanging around with the Bilderberg Globalist Bunch in secret!

What might alleviate our problems with illegals, would be if the media, did its job and demand the government do theirs, which is to protect our borders.
As long as we offer them, free health care, kick our children out of college to make room for illegals. WIC coupons, allow them to drive with no car insurance.
Not to forget your liberal friend Pelosi, you have to be crazy to enforce immigration laws.
Are Obama pushing the dream act.
Better known as screw American kids all the in need money goes to illegals.
Tea party Americans were called terrorist in a local paper this morning!
I have told the folks who want to pay more taxes, write a check, and I mail it for you, have not got a check yet.
