My point is that America is broken and elections will not fix it. The Titanic was a magnificent ocean liner but there came a time to abandon ship or die.

The America that was founded was the best country on earth but certain Supreme Court decisions (1962-present) and a federal government which has grown to believe itself infallible have destroyed the foundation upon which that greatness was founded on - a reverence for a Creator God, a belief in limited government and a reliance on self-responsibility and liberty has been traded in for a government just a few steps short of the Supreme Soviet.

Secession is the attempt to recreate the America that the founders created and for which conservatism bleeds and dies for. IMO, Texas (and maybe Alaska) is the best laboratory for doing this while not repeating the federal mistakes of the past 50 years. Perhaps it would fail but I’d rather try and fail than watch us be sucked into the insatiable federal leviathan that only desires more and more power over our lives each and every day when we know in our hearts there is a better way that we can’t get federal judges and Washington bureaucrats to see.

Call it treason if you wish. I call it survival.

I call it treason, cowardice, fecklessness.
