"...and you're on thin ice with a number of federal laws."

I was reviewing this thread just now and had a thought about your comment.

When has the Obamanation Administration ever cared about enforcing federal law? They obviously could care less about enforcing federal immigration law.

The Constitution is a joke to them.

The Bill of Rights is a joke to them.

Federal law is a joke to them.

The United States is a joke to them.

Are we still a nation of laws? Is the federal government still bound by law? Apparently not. Liberals openly brag about ignoring laws. And now that BHO has gained a second term they are going to be even more aggressive and open in flaunting any other laws that still remain.

So does anyone seriously believe they would suddenly give a damn about enforcing any other federal laws if Texas or any other states decided to secede from the Union?

BTW I have enjoyed all your posts on this subject.

Thanks, Glad you enjoyed my comments!

On the subject of this administration following the law of the land, it seems they are selectively doing so when the law supports a position they've taken. Usually one that increases their power/control of the rest of us.

I wouldn't bet money against the Obama administration prosecuting anyone felt to represent a threat to their control, to the fullest extent possible. Remember the whistle blowers recently in the news:

"Eric Holder, attorney general under President Barack Obama, has prosecuted more government officials for alleged leaks under the World War I-era Espionage Act than all his predecessors combined, including law-and-order Republicans John Mitchell, Edwin Meese and John Ashcroft."

That said, I doubt much serious federal action would ensue if a state like Texas decided to secede. You would probably see things like air travel curtailed until Texas by cutting off hydrocarbon changed the feds mind about continuing such.
