Texas Seceding: Take Ron Paul With You! (MSNBCRAP)

[reduen]

Olberman is to Obama what Hannity is to Bush.....

 

[Anti Federalist]

Yeah, I can almost see Oklahoma seceeding on Texas' preserved 'right' to do it, and Texas saying wait, me too!

No doubt, they will "bandwagon" before taking the lead.

And maybe that's a good thing.

For if Texas were to lead the way, it would trigger a violent and immediate federal response as that would strike a fatal blow to the system right off the bat.

Th response would be less so to try and bring back in a wayward Montana, or New Hampshire or Alaska or even Oklahoma.

I seriously think Perry is pulling a "Beck".

 

[newbitech]

wouldn't texas just charge tariffs to the United States -1 for all the trade goods that would travel through its ports and the Nafta corridors? Oh and who would refine all that oil LA? HAHA. Olberman is a tool!@

 

[pinkmandy]

They have no idea how counter-productive this sort of insults are.

Yes they do. It's exactly what they want.

A nation divided cannot stand...

 

[LATruth]

Olbermann should be off the air after this, calling secession "treason" and undermining every state's right with fear.

Oh NOS, YOUR RATINGS WONT COUNT EITHER!!!!!!!!

Why do people listen to this trash?

 

[silverhawks]

Yes they do. It's exactly what they want.

A nation divided cannot stand...

I agree with you Mandy. This is divide and conquer. We're seeing that in the UK with New Labour's "devolution of power" to local authorities, breeding nationalism and calls for the breakup of the United Kingdom in order for the pieces to be more easily absorbed into the EU.

 

[BenIsForRon]

Of course, we all know that Perry is just another neocon, and he isn't really considering secession. This is what really makes Olbermann look like a jackass.

 

[Icymudpuppy]

With Texas, so with Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Eastern Washington and Eastern Oregon, Nevada, Alaska, and a few others.

Bingo!!! Effing douche knows how giddy every Texan gets when talking about secession. He is just using this to gather votes for his election next year. This whole thing is utter BS and I for one am not going to get emotionally invested in this if they are not serious. You reign of terror is almost over Rick.

 

[NYgs23]

The "WTF Moment"? Between that and the "teabaggers" you'd almost think MSNBC wasn't a professional news organization anymore.

 

[jkr]

Olberman is to Obama what Hannity is to Bush.....

profound!

 

[sailor]

Yes they do. It's exactly what they want.

Are you saying they want to provoke a secession?

 

[acptulsa]

Are you saying they want to provoke a secession?

No, that they want to provoke a distraction. Much like a pickpocket does just before your wallet disappears forever. KO seems secure in the knowledge that Rick Perry doesn't mean it. He fails to realize that many Texans do--and that they'd take most of the states west of the Mississippi with them. They seem to have grown fond of playing dangerous games...

 

[Athan]

Who the fuck is that second commentator that doesn't know shit and is talking about Ron like he knows his ass from his head?

 

[sailor]

No, that they want to provoke a distraction. Much like a pickpocket does just before your wallet disappears forever.

Well they are playing with fire.

 

[1000-points-of-fright]

The best way to shut down idiots like Olbermann is to ask them to show you exactly where in the constitution it says secession is unconstitutional and treasonous.

Some, like Bill Maher, will say that the civil war settled the case against secession. But that wasn't a legal decision, it was brute force. If they still point to the civil war, they are obviously fascists who believe that might makes right.

 

[RevolutionSD]

He's assuming that if Texas secedes, they would WANT or NEED an FCC, FBI, Social Security, FDA, etc. Olbermann is nothing more than a jack boot thug, promoting statism and trying to squash individualism.

 

[RevolutionSD]

Oh yeah and even more idiotic about Olbermann's rant, the stuff about losing pro sports franchises! Like that matters at ALL! WTF is wrong with Olbermann? I'm sure he would have been a huge cheerleader for Lincoln's war of northern aggression.

Bomb them rebellious Texans!

 

[Kotin]

Texas does not need the US - but the US needs Texas.

Energy? Check, Texas has got it.

Refineries? Check, Texas has got it.

Water? Check, Texas has got it.

Agriculture? Check, Texas has got it.

Ports? Check, Texas has got it.

Welfare? WE DO NOT NEED THE FEDS IN ORDER TO PROVIDE FOR OUR OWN.

CIA? WE DO NOT NEED THE FED CIA - IT FUCKING MISSED THE FALL OF THE WALL, GOOD GRIEF - WHO NEEDS THAT IGNORANT BUNCH?

Football? The greatest passion in Texas is for HIGH SCHOOL football, and we damn sure don't need the Feds to keep that going.

PELL GRANTS? Give me a fucking break.

GARAFALO? We can sure 'nuf do without that silly twit.

lol....

check...and check.
