Forums - General - Texas Governor: Texas Can Leave Union If It Wants

I hate my state sometimes.  Fortunately, this guy is going to get creamed during the Republican primary as even his own party thinks a mentally retarded hamster would do a better job of running the state.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

I love the idea of seceding somehow not being "extreme."

I also love how "love it or secede from it" is the new "love it or leave it" argument. Why can't they just move to Canada like everybody else who can't handle the heat?

At least Sarah Palin tried to cover up her secessionist friends. This guy takes the secessionist cake though.



I don't mind if Texas secedes from the union.
