Texas patriot calls for secession. Calls voters maggots.

[IGBT]

I agree, I would love to see most of the south secede from the rest of the states. The majority of red states are a vampire on the northeastern and west coast pocketbook. AKA, South Carolina for instance takes $2.47 from the federal government for every $1 it sends back.

Your sig is pretty ignorant. You act as if gas prices were ALWAYS $1.84 before Obama took office, conveniently not linking the gas price history of the Bush years. And I love it that you have to use Obama's middle name, as if it MEANS something. Another dog whistle for the racist right wing to denote someone as "other".

Here are the FACTS about gas prices:

Hint for those with a double digit IQ: click the 8 years tab.

Also another tip: presidents hardly have any impact on gas prices, OPEC and demand does.

moocher democrats are still embarrassed over your obama's middle name..he's not. I'm not and you should continue to be because you obviously have something to be guilty about.

I would rather not have Texas secede because I live in the state. The last thing I'd want to happen is have my kids learn in school that Jesus walked with dinosaurs, or that the Holocaust never happened.

Looks like Louisiana has started a movement as well;

Looks like a total of 15 States have a movement now;

15 States including Texas have filed a petition to secede from the United States

As of Saturday November 10, 2012, 15 States have petitioned the Obama Administration for withdrawal from the United States of America in order to create its own government.

These aren't states filing petitions. They are right wing nut job residents of the states filing petitions. Huge difference.

No one else has pointed out the inaccuracy in the thread title?

If you're fighting to abandon your nation, that doesn't make you a patriot. It makes you a traitor. If you fight a battle for secession and win, then you can be a patriot to your new nation, but not until then.

Wow. This takes the cake for MOST MISLEADING THREAD POST EVER.
No, 15 states didn't petition the government. 15 right wing citizens did in those states.

Other petitions that were made:

Make the Chicken the national bird of the US.
Make mariuana education mandatory
Set up a government department responsible for all contact with aliens
Prohibit the use of garlic in pizza without adequate labeling
Make mind control illegal

liberals have long forgotten the US is an experiment subject to failure. Let the liberal moochers push it into failure. With the obama at the wheel we will all know who's driving.

 

[monovillage]

If Texas is so badass, why'd the South lose the war ?

Because the Union was being run by a Republican.

Abandon your nation?

More like give the Democrats what they want, while securing what you want. Win/win. More like ensuring the future survival of your nation by splitting your eggs into two baskets. Letting diversity and competition thrive to move us forward beyond modern gridlock and towards a prosperous future.

Capitalism and socialism can both be tried, tested, and then adopted as needed. The economic winner will be a road map for the losing side to follow.

Nothing misleading about it, there seems to be a comprehension problem however.


There are 15 States that have a succession movements.

My movement this morning had more force than these.

The states where hypothetically this could occur in an alternate world are the most red states - do they have any idea what it would be like without the blue states to subsidize them? Out of the top 10 federal revenue states - only Texas generates a ton of revenue.

Funny to see New York on the "list" when 2/3 of NY voters chose Obama.

Because the Union was being run by a Republican.

FYI The south was democrat during the civil war, they really did not start going from Democrat to Republican until around the time the new deal was struck.

No, there are 15 groups of people who have secession, not succession, petitions.

Depending on your definition of a "movement" they may or not be a
"movement". A couple of hundred people who sign a petition to make Mars the official planet of the month of July doesn't make it a "movement" according to my definition.

These groups are in 15 states, but the 15 States don't have secession movements.

Well it would be better than the Democrat Blue state military as they would no doubt sequester theirs down to a couple unarmed security guards.

That's what I said. The reason the south lost the civil war is because Lincoln was running the union.

There's only two things that come out of Texas: Steers and Citizens of Texas....

I've always wondered what would happen to the retired people living off Social Security in Florida and Arizona.

Would many of them, who lived in northern states, trust the southern states to keep paying their social security or would they flee to northern states so they could be citizens there?

With the huge amount of extra money the blue states would have they could fully fund Medicare and Social Security. And bar payments to recipients outside their new country.

This is what would happen if Red and Blue split;

In the new Conservative Republic of the US (Red States) there would be:

1, A small strict welfare program for elderly, children and disabled only.

2, Zero tolerance for illegal immigration and tight immigration laws, if you are not needed you don't get in.

3, Minimum gun control laws, everyone 18 or older can not only carry without permit, will be encouraged to (except in places like where alcohol is served, elementary to high school, and government buildings i.e court houses, police stations.)

This will send the able bodied welfare dependent, the illegal immigrant population and the law breakers fleeing to the Liberal Democracy of the US (Blue States) where they can live off other people, get automatic amnesty, and commit crimes with out worry of be shot by their potential victims.

Leaving a core of productive law abiding, tax paying, productive citizenry with low taxes due to not having to pay in excess for welfare, extra law enforcement, prisons etc...

The Conservative Republic of the US would be a true highly prosperous utopia!

No welfare system. Most states won't have the money for it without the blue states money and the loss of revenue when they cut taxes.

2, Zero tolerance for illegal immigration and tight immigration laws, if you are not needed you don't get in.
Millions of guest workers will be let in to keep whats left of the Souths businesses going.

3, Minimum gun control laws, everyone 18 or older can not only carry without permit, will be encouraged to (except in places like where alcohol is served, elementary to high school, and government buildings i.e court houses, police stations.)
No gun laws. You can carry anywhere and everywhere. Including machine guns

This will send the able bodied welfare dependent, the illegal immigrant population and the law breakers fleeing to the Liberal Democracy of the US (Blue States) where they can live off other people, get automatic amnesty, and commit crimes with out worry of be shot by their potential victims.
The blue states will have a path to citizenship for illegal aliens as they will needed to work in industries that had to move back north because thats where their customers are.

Leaving a core of productive law abiding, tax paying, productive citizenry with low taxes due to not having to pay in excess for welfare, extra law enforcement, prisons etc...
Leaving a core of under educated, fat, anti science, unhealthy, low wage earners who don't pay enough taxes to keep the roads, sewers, hospitals and schools funded.

The Conservative Republic of the US would be a true highly prosperous utopia!
It would be a low wage, no health insurance, no retirement clone of China

The above would just be the beginning. In 20 years you would have a new workforce coming of age that wouldn't understand science, think critically and be burdened by a surge of babies due to the lack of legal contraception

Morrison went on to express anger at the "maggots" who backed Obama, specifically calling out non-white voters, whom he accused of voting for the president on an "ethnic basis."

I wonder how many white Republicans voted for Romney on an "ethnic basis."

Btw, patriots do not call for secession.

In my fantasy, texas secedes and gets invaded by mexico... the rest of the US just looks the other way when it happens :awe:

LOL! Unfortunately for you I am pretty sure that Texas could take on Mexico all by itself.

 

[bignateyk]

LOL. I can't wait for texas to become a blue state. I could see it happening by 2020 if republicans continue down their current path. The conservative tears flowing out of texas might eclipse their oil production.
