maybe this petition will get Obama to do something stupid with these kids and declare martial law in Texas, that would light a fire under the asses of the Texans and clear thinking American citizens.

Why should I trade one tyrant three thousand miles away for three thousand tyrants one mile away? An elected legislature can trample a man's rights as easily as a king can!

And give up them free obama bucks, hell NO, they wont do nothing to upset their free checks. I am wondering though. Why is it only tx that is spoken of with these petitions? There r 20+ other states that filed the same petition, even states that he won the electorial votes n popularity votes, dont want be part his plan for the downfall of america |

Texas is probably cited because we were the first over the 25,000 signature threshold upon which the WH will respond to a petition. Now, is this a serious effort to secede? Not in my opinion. There are 25 million people living in Texas the fact that 25,000 or even 100,000 is interesting but not significant. 230 bills were filed yesterday for the upcoming legislative session and I haven't heard that any of them proposed secession. Even if one is filed, it will never reach a vote. |

Whether or not the petition immediately makes anything change is besides the point...
The fact of the matter is, it is allows us another avenue to express our displeasure with the current government.
All ideas start small, building momentum until which point confrontation is unavoidable...
I look forward to that time.

Doesnt suprise me, it would get ugly quick. obviously the cities would be the first to go. but it would be the wild west out here in the mountains lol.  . but sadly most people wouldnt have the sand to stand up for what they believe in. |

We are in for some real hard times ahead. Just wait until after the first of the year when the Bush tax cuts expire. If you think that only the rich are going to pay more taxes you are mistaken.

So correct When the rich get scared to spend money the trickle down will be bad. When they chose not to invest there money the whole economy will crumble. |
