I don't think this yahoo has ever been to Texas. The state is largely urban??? Sure we have a few big cities, but a lot of open land. Don't get me started on all the misinformation - but that's fine - it will serve to keep his kind out.

God bless Texas.

Michael Lind, a fellow of the New America Foundation, a think-tank, and the author of a forthcoming book on his native state, says that Texas is transforming itself from Mississippi into California.

I guess Texas is in real trouble then....

Yep, Texas is the best but not as good as it used to be. In the old days it was legal to ride around drinking beer with your rifle in the gun rack of your pickup. The influx of yankees and liberals is slowly killing some of the states most welcome treasures.
Fortunately Texas still has no state income tax, though the liberals and carpetbaggers would sure like to see one.
Both Texas and Florida have no state income tax and are the two most prosperous states in the South. Oklahoma, where I reside, has a terribly punitive state income tax, overall high taxation on everything, corruption in state and county government is legendary and it's economy sucks, poverty is rampant, and any local company that starts to grow leaves the state-Any connection?
