Texas Fight! What Other States Can Learn from Texas vs U.S. EPA
Canada Free Press ^ | August 12, 2010 | Daren Bakst

Texas is fighting back against the heavy hand of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). All Americans should be proud of—and other states should take note of—not just the spirit but the technical arguments of the Lone Star revolt.

A recent letter to the EPA by both the state’s Attorney General and the Chairman of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality made it absolutely clear that the state is not going to comply with the EPA’s regulations on the permitting of greenhouse gas emissions.

There is nothing in the US Constitution that permits the federal govt to usurp the sovereignty of the state of texas in controlling its internal matters.

I don't get it.

Why is our Governor passing letters to Obama begging him to send troops to secure our border. We have the Texas National Guard. Lets use our own troops to secure the border.

The EPA should be defunded.

I think we should insist that congress refuses to pass a budget if that means the military has no money, so be it I want a Federal government shut down.

Liberty is more important then military preparedness.

Besides we still have the State forces, so its not like we will be defenseless.
Eventually the liberals will crack and allow us to get rid of the education department and the EPA, and the health-care bill.

But until then No discretionary spending peroid!

Meanwhile in this shut down we will be pushing our states to retake ground so by the time the Federal government has come out of its shutdown we will already have secured control and won’t need them.

Then comes the isolation of the socialist states, and socialist ideologies will be allowed to burn themselves out locally as they attempt to enslave their people.

Fight fire with fire.
