THE COUNTRY of TEXAS

In case things get a little tough during the next few months we Texans
have a plan... Maybe you don't know it, but Texas is the only state
with a legal right to secede from the Union . (Reference the
Texas-American Annexation Treaty of 1848.)

We Texans love y'all Americans, but we'll probably have to take action
since Barack Obama won the election and is now the President of the
U.S.A. We'll miss ya'll though.

Here is what can happen:

1. Barack Hussein Obama, after becoming the President of the United
States, begins to try and create a socialist country, then Texas
announces that it is going to secede from the Union .

2. George W. Bush becomes the President of the Republic of Texas . ..
You might not think that he talks too pretty, but we haven't had
another terrorist attack and the economy was fine until the effects of
the Democrats lowering the qualifications for home loans came to roost.
So what does Texas have to do to survive as a Republic?

· NASA is just south of Houston , Texas . We will control the
space industry.

· We refine over 85% of the gasoline in the United States . .

· Defense Industry--we have over 65% of it. The term "Don't
mess with Texas ," will take on a whole new meaning.

· Oil - we can supply all the oil that the Republic of Texas
will need for the next 300 years. What will the other states do? Gee,
we don't know. Why not ask Obama?

· Natural Gas - again, we have all we need and it's too bad
about those Northern States. John Kerry and Al Gore will just have to
figure out a way to keep them warm...

· Computer Industry - we lead the nation in producing computer
chips and communications equipment - small companies like Texas
Instruments, Dell Computer, EDS, Raytheon, National Semiconductor,
Motorola, Intel, AMD, Atmel, Applied Materials, Ball Misconduct, Dallas
Semiconductor, Nortel, Alcatel, etc. The list goes on and on.

· Medical Care - We have the research centers for cancer
research, the best burn centers and the top trauma units in the world,
as well as other large health centers. The Houston Medical Center
alone employees over 65,000 people.

· We have enough colleges to keep educating and making smarter
citizens: University of Texas , Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Texas
Christian, Rice, SMU, University of Dallas , University of Houston ,
Baylor, UNT ( University of North Texas ), Texas Women's University,
etc. Ivy grows better in the South anyway.

· We have an intelligent and energetic work force and it isn't
restricted by a bunch of unions. Here in Texas , we are a Right to
Work State and, therefore, it's every man and woman for themselves.
We just go out and get the job done. And if we don't like the way one
company operates, we get a job somewhere else.

· We have essential control of the paper, plastics, and
insurance industries, etc.

· In case of a foreign invasion, we have the Texas National
Guard, the Texas Air National Guard, and several military bases. We
don't have an Army, but since everybody down here has at least six
rifles and a pile of ammo, we can raise an Army in 24 hours if we need
one. If the situation really gets bad, we can always call the
Department of Public Safety and ask them to send over the Texas
Rangers.

· We are totally self-sufficient in beef, poultry, hogs, and
several types of grain, fruit and vegetables, and let's not forget
seafood from the Gulf. Also, everybody down here knows how to cook
them so that they taste good. We don't need any food.

· Three of the ten largest cities in the United States , and
twenty-three of the 100 largest cities in the United States are located
in Texas . And Texas also has more land than California , New York ,
New Jersey , Connecticut , Delaware , Hawaii , Massachusetts ,
Maryland , Rhode Island , and Vermont combined.

· Trade: Three of the ten largest ports in the United States are
located in Texas .

· We also manufacture cars down here, but we don't need to. You
see, nothing rusts in Texas so our vehicles stay beautiful and run well
for decades.

This just names a few of the items that will keep the Republic of Texas
in good shape. There isn't a thing out there that we need and don't
have. Now to the rest of you folks in the United States under President
Obama: Since you won't have the refineries to get gas for your cars,
only President Obama will be able to drive around in his big 9 mpg
SUV. The rest of the United States will have to walk or ride bikes.

You won't have any TV as the Space Center in Houston will cut off
satellite communications.

You won't have any natural gas to heat your homes, but since Mr. Obama
has predicted global warming, you will not need the gas as long as you
survive the 2000 years it will take to get enough heat from Global Warming.

In other words, the rest of ya'll in the USA are screwed!

Signed, The People of Texas

P.S. This is not a threatening letter - just a note to give you
something to think about!

Sleep well tonight 'cause the eyes of Texas are on YOU!!

One Nation Under God!!

He over turned, or got rid of the Posse Comitatus Act.

Basically, the pres. can now unleash the military on U.S. citizens.

Yes I know...." This will never happen" God I hope not.

That pretty ridiculous, especially since this is just an updated version of an email I saw years ago. People that get all bent out of shape about it just wished they lived here. :)

You know, in addition to Posse Comitatus, Bush tried hard to flush Habeus Corpus down the drain too. Thankfully that got a judicial smackdown.

Must be a bunch of stiffs on that board... I just moved here from Florida in 03' & I like it! Of course, I like Texas 100X more than Florida, so maybe I was a Texan all along, just living in the wrong place. :D

I fail to see any part, of any post, here that is a threat.
I do however see this spoke about openly all the time. And it would be legal if it did happen. And I would support it 100%.

What part of Florida did you move from? I agree that Texas is a lot better than Florida.

Spent a few months in Miami - was quite an experience and would do it again. :tu:Out of the places I've been on projects (DFW, Houston, Milwaukee, San Francisco, Atlanta, Chicago, Tulsa, etc) Texas is the place to be.

I've lived in either south Florida or the South('Bama, Georgia) for the vast majority of my life. South Florida is an ok place to visit, but you don't want to raise a family there. It's getting too rough.

While Texas isn't perfect, it sure as hell beats Florida, and I'd even say Alabama and Georgia as far as living goes.

Miami Lakes/Hialeah, here. I was there in the mid/late summer. Yes, it is a rough area. Parts were like scenes out of Miami Vice.

Miami Beach and A1A, that's a different matter.
