Partner: I am a Born & Raised Texan as well, and the point is still the problem....states-rights is still an important issue.

States Rights are VITAL. The 10th amendment makes this very clear.

And the 10th amendment reserves all rights not granted to the FED to the states, and then to the people.

And don't forget our Texas Southern Heritage!

"R.E. Lee once paid a very large tribute to Texans. After a battle (sorry I forget which one, look it up for yourself) he sent in a Texas Regiment.

They won.

Quoth R.E. Lee; "Texans always move them.

'Nuff said.

Yes, I think he said it standing in his saddle, too, in a loud, clear voice so that they could hear it. I think that that was at Spottsylvania, in 1864.
