Yes, thats true. They had their chance long ago. They traded their safety and support for sovereignty when negations were being made with DC. Lots of Long Star folks did not want to become a state of the US.They lost in the final round of talks as a trade off,.

They had their chance, and they did lose. And I doubt that most people in Texas would want to secede.

These "United States of America" can have two interpatations . All for one, one for all, United States as a country.States rights are secondary........The other side sees it as each state unto itself., only united for fighting Wars.

In short, this is OUR country, not just one person's. Mine, yours, everybody's.
Supposing for argument's sake that Texas were to secede during the President's second term (and get away with it), and that in 2016 a thorough-going, dyed-in-the-wool movement conservative (say, Santorum) were to win the election - would Texas then re-apply for statehood?
Answer: No. The right wing will continue to whine about losing a free, fair, and open democratic election, they'll continue to make up lots of complete BS and they'll work tirelessly to gerrymander districts and try to prevent the will of the people but at the end of the day they're all chicken crap. They'll no doubt continue listening to the mad ravings of the idiots on the radio who tell them lies and fleece them for cash but the 60 year old racist losers who buy into that garbage have never and will never make up the majority.
Texans seems to be some of the least patriotic people in the country, for all their claims to the contrary. There are major problems in our country, but to desert your fellow citizens is cowardly.
YAY for Texas.
I'm not patriotic.....this country has gone INSANE, that includes the dreck who are the so-called leaders....both parties included.
