Why is this even news? These sore losers represent less then half of one percent of the population in Texas. It’s a temper tantrum, and should be ignored by the rest of us adults.

Yes…one of the biggest feeders at the Federal trough and biggest whiners about any other state that get’s any Federal dollars no matter how small. Just a sampling of the Federal dollars they suck up…Brooks AFB, Dyess AFB, Goodfellow AFB,Lackland AFB, Laughlin AFB, Randolph AFB,Sheppard AFB,Fort Bliss,Fort Hood,Red River Army Depot,Naval Air Station Fort Worth,NAS Corpus Christi,Naval Air Station Kingsville,Naval Station Ingleside, etc. etc. sure I missed some Federal slop here. I keep hoping they will succeed and go, and maybe some other states can get back some of the jobs lost when the Fed shut everyone elses bases down. Cause once they go we ain’t stayin. Once they did succeed,I would think with the loss of the military industrial complex supporting their backwards thinking State the economy of Texas will begin to s*&# the bed. Buh,bye!!

Of course they’re only a minority (hahahahahaaa) in those states that want to secede, so we’ll have to pile ‘em all together in one place and let them take that out of the Union. I’m thinking, Alaska! They already have a Governor that fits. Really, this isn’t half as nuts as they are…if they want to go, and live in a no tax, no services paradise, let them go…and good riddance.

Right, the folks from Texas are worried about the national debt. I bet they weren’t writing to their representatives in Washington when their former governor and his Congress took a balance budget handed to them by Clinton and created the mess we are in today.
