What makes you think Texas Nationalists are republicans? If they were they should stick with the establishment and vote people in...they want out for good,they don't want to remain in the establishment.

They better hurry up before demographics are against them. In 2011 Texas was 39% Hispanic.

Awesome. Poor wittle "constitutional law professor" has his panties in a bunch. Amusing to see.
Bro, do you have a job or do you just sit around all day scouring the internet for right wing propaganda?

We would have to raise a army first, but Texas could definitly make it on its own. We were our own country once and we could do it again. The U.S. nees us more than we need them.

Yeahyeahyeahyeah, we know the drill. Posers flexing imaginary muscles in front of their cretin audience. Nothing is going to come from it, as per usual - you know it, we know it.

I've met plenty of secessionists living here in Texas, every one has been a republican.

Gone will be the federal matching funds, you all do realize the feds match a lot of initiatives. It may not be as fully sustainable as one may think.
LOl, you think business are going to stop doing business with or move out of Texas if it became its own country? If anything more would move there because its a pro business state.

The ultimate irony would be if Texas did leave and then we invade them to take their oil.

I live in Texas. I am a very conservative voter.

while there are some idiots in this state that are talking stupid stuff, they are not gaining steam.

As a southerner, I wish there was a C-D rule that would force the OP to change his name and stop offending my southern sensibilities.


I would suggest overtracist or Stormfronter or something along those lines. Oh well, one of the costs of free speach is to all the innane and ugly thier voice as well.

I would love to divide the country into two separate countries, one made up of conversative and one made up of communist. . You guys can have all the free loaders/welfare recipients, all the illegals, all the people who don't want guns. Let's see which one is still standing in fifty years.
