Yep. That headline is true.

And much like the 2008 election, I’m voting for the VP and against Obama.

I’d vote for a can of corn before I’d vote for Obama. ABO

If he steals the election, hope the next vote cast is for Texas secession.

After that we build a fence a mile high around the state.

Screw the bastards!

I,too, am a Christian Zionist. Last night at our little rural Tn prayer meeting, we all prayed for God’s people, the Jews. Only our President hates them>

“Texas tried that 150 years ago and it didn’t work out too well.”

****

Different Texas today. We’ve got the natural resources (oil and gas were non-issues the last time), our own electrical power grid, lots of tech, booming economy, and defense resources.

As a practical matter if secession were to occur, I’d foresee many states in the South and most of the upper Middle America states that border Canada leaving. The U.S. would be left with the Northeast and West Coast plus a narrow band of states connecting them.

Killing babies is wrong. Stealing money in industrial quantities to provide sub-standard medical care is wrong. I won't vote to support someone that supports those things.

What is wrong with our nation today is that we have a federal government that is out of control and exceeding the established Constitutional limits.

Both major parties support that violation. I won't be voting to support either.

P-R-I-O-R-I-T-I-E-S!!!!!!

I agree with everything you say but allowing the Obamaturd to get re elected won’t put a stop to abortion OR Obamacare.

Stop Obama NOW and in 4 years replace Romney if possible and if not do it in 2016.

Roe V Wade has been around for almost 40 years. Do you really believe if Santorum was the nominee we could get it overturned? If so I would really love to hear how it would be done.

Don’t take it personally. I think he was just trying to be helpful and thought you made an inadvertant mistake in the famous quote. :)

My priority is to not give support to any liberal of any party.

First you remove the establishment’s biggest threat to you, then you fight the establishment itself.

Ain’t rocket science.

"He would not be my first choice," Milburn said. "I have been hearing the words ‘vote for lesser of two evils' since the mid-'80s. ... It's very disheartening."

He ain't the only one that's been hearing that, or that knows voting for the lesser of two evils is still voting for evil.

LOL. And the point is?

Where were all these stories when Kerry was running against Bush?
