Isn’t that part of the Texas Constitution...a right to secede?
Yes, I think it is.
BUMP
See my tagline - still fits.
No, that’s a myth. There is nothing in the Texas State Constitution giving it the right to secede, split into 5 states or any other popular but untrue nonsense.
But don’t take my word for it, read the thing yourself.

From the same newspaper who openly campaigned for barak.
Libs will never figure it out that they are targets of the kenyan as well.
Yes, Texas is very military heavy. We have many more military installations than most other states. A good position to be in when we secede, which WILL happen eventually.
Actually, what I am referring to is HOW many call Texas their home state. They maybe stationed at Bragg, NC...but Texas is their home state. It is partly to do with no income tax. My daughter and son in law’s new assignment is Fort Sam but this is the first time ever they’ve been stationed in Texas. Texas is their home state and when filing taxes it is as a Texas resident. My granddaughter will be going to college at Texas A & M and will have in state tuition because Texas is her home state and she’s never lived here.
Just so; also it's the standard Chicago way: help your friends and punish your enemies. Of course Texas is no friend of jug ears. If the federales were constrained within Constitutional limits they wouldn't even have the ability to pull it off but we know how they feel about our Constitution -- and why.
“I know I shouldnt say this...but Texas is larger than most countries...we should become The Republic of Texas, again.”
Why shouldn’t you say it? We(Texans) were a proud republic once before. Indeed even after 165 years Texas pride still runs thou the veins of Texans. If the situation called upon us to raise our head among the nations of the world I know we could do it.
It is not so difficult a thing to be a independent nation, Texas is already a Nation onto her self in every sense of the world. What is difficult is standing up to and defeating an abusive tyrant, to reclaim our God given natural right to independence.
Don’t EVER be ashamed to stand up for liberty and the rights of man! It is he who ignore their importance or overlooks their loss that is the fool.
You need demonstrate their foolishness for the chains of abuse that now ensnare them will eventually become too tight for them them to ignore or escape. Let them be reminded of their foolishness now when they no longer have the strength to do something about it.
“Id encourage immigration by sponsorship. A citizen would have to vouch for an immigrant and guarantee a job before he/she gets here. No government assistance of any kind for 10 years and if job is lost, no governmental subsidy and the sponsor is responsible for debts. ........thats just for starters.”
Sounds like a good plan to me if by typo? “debts” you mean deportation.
NObama is giving more & more reasons why there should be a new grouping:
The Western States of America:
Arizona
New Mexico
Texas
Oklahoma
Missouri
Kansas
Nebraska
S Dakota
N Dakota
Montana
Utah
Wyoming
Idaho
Utah
Nevada
Colorado
Break off from the current lower 48 & set up & patrol their borders, set up their own governments & let the Liberals rot.
The success of such a group would be overwhelming, IMO.
Solipsism? I had heard the term but needed to look it up. Interesting word and worth the exercise to look it up. Even plain talk likes it. :-) Thanks.
The only problem is they are green wackos so if they ever ask you if you fly always say, "no" and they will be happy with you.
