I'm against the idea of states seceding in principle, but with Texas I can make an exception. George P. Bush (Jeb Bush's son) is now running for land commisioner in Texas, and I fear that Texas will plauge our country with another Bush adminstration.

If Texas agrees to pay reparations for the damage that George W. Bush inflicted upon this country, would you support the notion of kicking them out of the union?

First off, how can you blame the state of Texas for George Bush's shenanigans? That's ludicrous. Also, Texas has 6 of the 20 biggest cities in the country and plenty of fortune 500 companies based there. It is one of the states that has managed to maintain a thriving economy in these poor economic times.



Did a proud Texan rub you the wrong way or something?



Oh yeah, to answer your question, I don't support "kicking out" Texas.

Texas may be the lucky one because under 0bama the US is going bankrupt. How long do you people think the Feds can keep pumping billions into the stock market before the dollar gets so diluted that other countries will stop buying our debt.



0bama is no Robin hood; His is the exactly like the Sheriff of Nottingham.

Show me a line in the Constitution that allows for the US Government to kick a state out....you know, the Constitution....that piece of paper the left uses as toilet paper.



The only state in the Union that earns a profit you want to kick out? Why? Because the leadership is conservative and prove the liberal side is a failure maybe?

This is you....



"whaah, they don't think like me so they are evil and must be banished!"



Yeah, that's the "live and let live" attitude.



If Texas separated from the rest of this country I think you would be shocked by how better off they'd be. I know I'd move there. Before you know it other states would join in, and the US would be split. I'm not actually against this, I'd be happy to give up half the country, and even move if it meant I didn't have to deal with communists.

Hell. if they do, I'm moving my family there



EDIT - If reparations are to be paid for "damage to the Country", the Democrats who had their hands all over Affirmative Action Housing policies better call China and take out a Trillion dollar loan for damn near destroying our Financial System, putting millions out of work and decimating America's retirement savings

Texas is the least of my worries. Least they basically carry their own weight.

I'd like to see Calif. secede

No, but I'd support kicking you out.
