“ Texas, soon to be the last bastion of freedom in our Great Republic.”
Oh. psssht.
It’s run by democrats pushed by democrats who say they’re republicans. Houston has been taken over. San Antonio is bluer than the Bronx. Dallas is Muslim sanctuary. Growing. Abbot is a wimp. Cruz is a do nothing Cornyn is a dem
Texas lives in Simpson under a reputation from the past
The severe takeover of road and highway construction crappy aparyand housing being thrown up all over, it is all to make this place vote for a democrat president
This is all dynamic. It is not the 1990s. These people mean business
Newsom drove the Californians to Texas
Way things look to be going, you might as well go for the change.
GOP plans on losing mid terms, so it is a toss up on where to settle.
Twenty years ago, I would have said to stay and fight for your state. Now, I believe conservatives should leave blue states while they can and move to a red state in order to help keep red states conservative. Why stay in a blue state and have your taxes support policies that are destructive to your freedom, lifestyle, and beliefs?
I think eventually our country will split into 6 or 7 regions since we are no longer a “united” country.
I don’t see it as bleak as you do. I don’t see any signs of crap here north of CdA. Of course, maybe that’s my perspective from living in the SF Bay area for 50 years.
My folks moved to Downingtown, PA (Chester County west of Phil.) in 1969 when I started college and they lived there for 40 years before passing. Downingtown was a pretty conservative area and very pretty. It was in the news here on FR this morning for having elected a TRANNY to mayor (I think). I was SO stunned to see that happen in my folks’ old town.
I couldn’t be happier.
,Moved from 45 years in north central Florida to western slope Colorado four years ago. Family move. Beautiful scenery abounds with idiots in charge and overrunning the state. Circumstances have changed (see tagline)
Where is the rural part of TN?
can’t wait to get out of Tennessee!
Well thanks FReeper, wiped out that great idea out of my head
Our daughter just gave birth at Providence Sacred Heart hospital close to you. It’s a great hospital! They live in the Valley nearby.
South Hill is a wonderful place, indeed!
I don’t follow CdA politics much. What about the new mayor? Is it bad?
Texas voters just raised the homestead exemption to $200K for those 65 and older.
We sure did and we be’s the beneficiaries of it....;)
Bless your heart, and your ignorance.
“Texas, soon to be the last bastion of freedom in our Great Republic.”
Been here my whole adult life
My ignorance?
Back at ya
Amazing. Congrats on the grandbaby. Boy or girl? Fist grandchild?
Sacred Heart hospital is terrific.
Thanks! Yep, first grandchild — little boy. So exciting!
From what I’ve heard he hates Christians and the far right and I’m wondering how we got elected to mayor of Coeur d’Alene, which I thought was conservative.
Or Minnisoda. “Thank God for the monkeypox.” Animal Mother
Unidentified flesh eating STD is wrecking havoc on gay community in minneapolis lol
Thanks. I asked Grok “Tell me about the new mayor of Couer d’Alene, Idaho. Does he hate Christians?” and the answer IS rather disconcerting and concerning. I won’t put the whole answer here. But he sure as a checkered background.
OK, now we need to draft the charter. Will you chair that committee?
I'd love to but I have already committed to chairing the Procrastinators Committee.
Northeast and Central parts of the state are rural, beautiful and strongly conservative. Avoid Memphis, Nashville and Knoxville.
I’d definitely get the heck out of Colorado.
