Texas wants U.S. Supreme Court to help it block Confederate license plates

[Bill W was a conservative]

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Mk8:36

Of course, Perry has sold out on much more than just the license plate.

[Savage Beast]

Does this have anything to do with the contemporary Texas secessionist movement?

What flag was waved during the Waco slaughter by the FedGov?

I don't recall seeing any flags there. Unless the Branch Davidians had one.

[DoodleDawg]

I haven't seen an announcement for an election over 2 years away

I don't need to see a skunk either to know when one has been around. I'll bet you don't think Hillary is running either. Or Christie.

Ain't nothing real until a politician denies it.

If you don't think Perry is running for president then you're kidding yourself.

Concurring bump.

Perry is stumping in New Hampshire & Iowa, attending big donor dinners, and hiring consultants from previous GOP presidential campaigns.

If he's not running for President then he's wasting a lot of time and money.

Ain't nothing real until a politician denies it.

Because we know that politicians never, ever lie right?

Why can’t folks just get past this crap??!?

Why can’t folks just get past this crap??!?

Because we live in an age where people have concluded that they have a Constitutional right not to be annoyed. And that their right trumps anyone elses.

Go to Texas where many car horns play La Cucaracha

On the contrary.. politicians almost always lie.

I doubt the Supremes will touch this at all. It is not really a federal issue in its current form. And because they get a bottleneck of some 8,000 cases appealed to them each year, they are very selective.

I don't recall seeing any flags there.

[Paleo Conservative]

I wouldn’t want to have car trouble in the wrong parts of Houston with that plate.

[Georgia Girl 2]

LOL!

Seems this is Texas Atty Gen Abbott’s doing... who is running for Gov...not Rick Perry.

I’m dealing with some whiners on ThinkProgress (yeah, a contradiction in regards to the people who claim the title) on this very subject. The article and many of the commentators are calling what the Confederates did an act of treason.

So far, I haven’t gotten a logical response when I point out how the British felt about the Thirteen Colonies declaring independence.
