Fiercely independent and thoroughly horrified at the blatantly unconstitutional explosion of federal tyranny into every aspect of our lives, Texans are set to march on the state capitol in droves on Saturday. They will be delivering a million-strong petition to their elected officials based on the 10th Amendment, demanding an immediate constitutional confrontation with Washington.
If they are turned away or their concerns inadequately addressed, organizer Gerry Donaldson says they "will be forced to call for a vote for secession." This will not be the last time a state openly defies Obama's treasonous war on the Constitution.
Donaldson, who runs his own Internet radio show, says they are "calling for an orderly process that will allow our federal government to fall back in line with the Constitution." He continued, "Either we will restore America, we will live in a Marxist dictatorship, or we will secede and start over again."
I would support a Free Republic of Texas and I would move there, too. If Obama is going to rule us with a fascist hand, then we don't have to live under him!
I'm Moving to Texas If The State Secedes (Unless Alaska Does It First)

If ObamaCare is passed, Texas may be the first in a series of states that man’s up and declares its independence.
Ready and willing to move to, and if necessary, fight for [insert name of first state to secede].
Secession appears to be the most viable way to proceed.
“Dagnabbit! Them feds done gone too far for me and muh paw!”
Ping.
“If ObamaCare is passed, Texas may be the first in a series of states that mans up and declares its independence”.
...or Cap & Trade or anything else that comes down the pike. Texas is pissed and they don’t do pissed well.
I hope it all works out in the end and ten years from now we have a very strong Republican majority. I would like to see lower taxes and less regulation and a turning back of the clock on healthcare - less govt involvement and a return of the country doctor.
Secession is tough stuff.
I hope Florida joins Texas. But even the State Gov. needs to be cut to size. We have had Republican control for years and still the Gov is huge.
Or Texas could exercise the authority in the Texas Annexation Resolution and form four more states, giving Texas eight more senators and thus, at least eight more electoral votes.
Secession actually makes much more sense than pursuing the birth certificate issue. BHO will never furnish it and a Democrat Congress will never impeach him much less open an inquiry on it.
WE THE PEOPLE !! ..... ARE !!! THE OVER LORDS of the GOVERNMENT and not the other way around !!
If the flag no longer represents a republic, or the Republic isn't the items listed in the pledge, then the whole thing is null and void anyway.
God Bless Texas!

How many of those eight do you think would be conservative or even members of the GOP?
If Texas does this, count me in. I know most Texans don’t care for phony and superficial and wacky Californians, but I will earn my keep and join the Texas national guard. ANYTHING to be free of the Obama Nation.
No, what I pledge that allegiance to is a Republic represented by the flag, a Republic that is one nation with 50 States that provides liberty and justice to all.
That is not Barack Obama’s United States of America, not by any measure.
Me too. Immediately. (gotta buy up some houses before the flood!)
