Please note that Texas is the only state with a legal right to secede from the Union. (Reference the Texas-American Annexation Treaty of 1848.)
We Texans love y'all but we'll probably have to take action since Barack Obama won the election. We'll miss you too.
Here is what can happen:
1: Barack Hussein Obama becomes President of the United States and Texas immediately secedes from the Union.
2: George W. Bush will become the President of the Republic of Texas. You might not think that he talks too pretty but we haven't had another terrorist attack and the economy was fine until the effects of the Democrats lowering the qualifications for home loans came to roost.
So what does Texas have to do to survive as a Republic?
1. NASA is just south of Houston, Texas. We will control the space industry.
2. We refine over 85% of the gasoline in the United States.
3. Defense Industry--we have over 65% of it. The term "Don't mess with Texas" will take on a whole new meaning.
4. Oil - we can supply all the oil that the Republic of Texas will need for the next 300 years. What will the other states do? Gee, we don't know. Why not ask Obama?
5. Natural Gas - again we have all we need and it's too bad about those Northern States. John Kerry and Al Gore will have to figure out a way to keep them warm....
6. Computer Industry - we lead the nation in producing computer chips and communications equipment -small companies like Texas Instruments, Dell Computer, EDS, Raytheon, National Semiconductor, Motorola Intel, AMD, Atmel, Applied Materials Ball, Miconductor, Dallas Semiconductor Nortel, Alcatel, etc etc. The list goes on and on.
7. Medical Care - We have the research centers for cancer research, the best burn centers and the top trauma units in the world as well as other large health centers. The Houston Medical Center alone employs over 65000 people.
8. We have enough colleges to keep us getting smarter: University of Texas, Texas A%26amp;M, Texas Tech, Texas Christian, Rice, SMU, University of Dallas, University of Houston, Baylor, UNT (University of North Texas), Texas Women's University, etc. Ivy grows better in the South anyway.
9. We have an intelligent and energetic work force and it isn't restricted by a bunch of unions. Here in Texas it's a Right to Work State and, therefore, it's every man and women for themselves. We just go out and get the job done. And if we don't like the way one company operates we get a job somewhere else.
10. We have essential control of the paper, plastics, and insurance Industries etc.
11. In case of a foreign invasion we have the Texas National Guard, the Texas Air National Guard and several military bases. We don't have an Army but since everybody down here has at least six rifles and a pile of ammo, we can raise an Army in 24 hours if we need one. If the situation really gets bad, we can always call the Department of Public Safety and ask them to send over the Texas Rangers.
12. We are totally self-sufficient in beef, poultry, hogs and several types of grain, fruit and vegetables, and let's not forget seafood from the Gulf. Also everybody down here knows how to cook them so that they taste good. Don't need any food.
13. Three of the ten largest cities in the United States and twenty-three of the 100 largest cities in the United States are located in Texas. And Texas also has more land than California, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Maryland, Rhode Island and Vermont combined.
14. Trade: Three of the ten largest ports in the United States are located in Texas.
5. We also manufacture cars down here but we don't need to. You see nothing rusts in Texas, so our vehicles stay beautiful and run well for decades.
This just names a few of the items that will keep the Republic of Texas in good shape. There isn't a thing out there that we need and don't have.
Now to the rest of the United States under President Obama:
Since you won't have the refineries to get gas for your cars, only President Obama will be able to drive around in his big 9 mpg SUV. The rest of the United States will have to walk or ride bikes.
You won't have any TV as the Space Center in Houston will cut off satellite communications.
You won't have any natural gas to heat your homes but since Mr. Obama has predicted global warming you will not need the gas as long as you survive the 2000 years it will take to get enough heat from Global Warming.
So in other words go screw yourselves. Oh that's right. You already have!

P.S. This is not a threatening letter - just a note to give you something to think about!
SLEEP WELL TONIGHT THE EYES OF TEXAS ARE UPON YOU
i hope to see a LOT of fellow texan support here!THE COUNTRY of TEXAS?...........?
Kind of makes you proud to be a Texan doesn't it.
but the real question is why do texans call it "tuna *fish*" and "hamburger *meat*"?THE COUNTRY of TEXAS?...........?
I knew there were more reasons why I miss my adopted state so much. Houston I will return someday. God bless Texas!
okie dokie, hookem horns.THE COUNTRY of TEXAS?...........?
1. Johnson space center is outside Houston, it's mission control and astronaut training. It's one of over a dozen NASA installations. It doesn't host the research, production, or launch facilities. It would certainly not exist if Texas left the union.
2 - Oil refinement is not difficult. It's jut not. It's only done in Texas because of lose environmental laws.
3. I don't buy that Texas has 65% of the defense industry. Lockheed Martin is headquartered in Maryland, Raytheon in Massachusetts, Aircraft manufactures are in Washington State. What precisely is in Texas?
4 %26amp; 5. It's irrelevant given that 70% of our oil is imported.
6. That's incorrect. Motorola is headquartered in Illinois, Intel %26amp; AMD in California. Most computer hardware is produced in Southeast Asia and designed in CA %26amp; the Northeast. Leading domestic manufacturing is a meaningless number given foreign suppliers dwarf that. Texas contributes fairly little to software development.
7. The best medical facilities in the country are in greater Boston and California. Simply having hospitals doesn't make Texas remotely unique.
8. Texas schools are known for their football programs more than their scholars. None hold a candle to Harvard, M.I.T., Stanford, Yale, UC Berkley, etc.
9. Most occupations in the U.S. aren't unionized. It's just older manufacturing companies in the rust belt.
10. Again, wrong. Hartford, CT is the insurance center of the US. Ohio %26amp; New Jersey produce more plastics, and polymer science is bigger on the coasts.
11. Sigh. What do Fort Bragg, Annapolis, and Eglin have in common? Not in Texas.
12. The US is a net exporter of food. It doesn't really matter that Texas is too.
13. It's disingenuous to suggest that San Antonio is one of the 10 largest cities in the US because you're considering only the city limits and not the metro area. It's really not that big. Houston is a ****hole, and Dallas has absolutely zero interesting things about it.
