Not arguing with the premise, just curious why our Governor all of a sudden agrees with me more often.

Plenty of room to grow when you start at zero...

Oh, I believe Rick Perry when he says he's not interested in the Federal Union.

Any guy who signs a law giving in-state tuition to illegal aliens while still charging out of state tuition to other citizens of the United States clearly thinks he's apart from the rest of the gang.

So much so that I called his office the day he did it and told the startled lady on the other end that Texas had just left the Union, and did they realize that?

States’ rights movements are the first serious step towards revolution against the Washington oligarchy. Three cheers for Governor Perry.

RINO Rick feels a void on the party. He has such a sweet deal for him and his family that he would eat a mouse alive if he thought it would be plus for his cause.

I will never vote for him.

He always gets a bit conservative while campaigning.

He’s looking ahead to the primary, and moving to the right of Kay Bailey Rinocerouson.

BINGO! We have a winner!

My opinion of both of them is fairly low.

Mine too!

Sorry for the double post...I had a nervous tick!

LOL! Couldn’t resist that one.

Some down here have dual citizenship. No, not the typical US/Mexican, but US/Texan. ;)

This is all well and good but this goes back to way before Obama. The entire welfare state is un-Constitutional.

Build the Texas National Guard into a real fighting force, then I will take these paper pronouncements seriously. 16 million people could support at least dozen Brigades to secure the borders of Texas. Otherwise, the swamp people won’t listen, they laugh instead at the fly-over rednecks.

Seems I’ll have to start some research.
I need a community with a thriving tech market,
a middle of the road real-estate market,
at least one family integrated church,
and a library system that supports home schooling.

We have most everything you could want from the beach to the mountains, from forests to the plains. Cities and towns of all sizes.

There’s still room now, but it could be fading fast in the future. ;)

There are easy ways to make sure that you only keep the right people, and it’s simply following “he who will not work shall not eat”.

The freeloaders quickly leave, leaving only the productive and moral, for the most part.

We should have applied that rule years ago.
