Tenthers
First it was the Birthers. Then came the Deathers. And now here’s the latest bright shiny object found by those funlovin’ sociopaths of the far right – the 10th Amendment:
Isn’t this the “Love It or LEAVE IT” crowd?
Amazing how everything changes when a black man is elected Preznit.
@ManchuCandidate: Yep. And if they want to go, I say here’s your hat, what’s your hurry. Are really under the impression that the rest of us care about losing the state that has done more, via its Bush cabal and elected representatives, to turn this country into a theocracy than any other? Take the rest of the CSA with you and Get. Out.
If they secede, we can finally put all those plans for a border fence to good use…
One of the problems with these douchebags is that they not only want an independnent nation that is free of all debts and obligations (i.e. teh State’s share of the natl debt would be wiped clean) but they variously insist that the Federal Government owes the State of Texas trillions of dollars in war reparations.
I say we just round them all up and let them live on an abandoned oil rig and raise a flag and call themselves “free” and leave the rest of us alone.
I meant to post this article last week that a great civil rights attorney wrote about the Tenthers.
@Serolf Divad:
Gee, sounds like the Quebec Separtistes. No debts or obligations and access to Federal money. Good luck with that.
They want WAR reparations? I wonder if Mexico and Natives would sue them for stealing their land.
@SanFranLefty: Thanks a lot for the link! It’s always good to get the historical perspective.
Happy Labor Day, kids.
Most people in Texas laugh at this shit. Really.
