Let them secede and then invade them for their oil.

1. It's these kind of idiotic posts that make me ashamed of DU

Invade Texas? You'd probably die trying...so don't attempt it. Also, there are millions of dems living here and we are making a difference. So, next time you come up with one of these brilliant ideas, throw it where it belongs...the trash can!

[Buzz Clik]

2. Agreed.

I sort of understand the sentiment, but it shows very little thought.

Any concept that was already used by Saddam Hussein is a really bad concept.

[kentauros]

4. It also shows someone

willfully ignoring the positive news coming out of my home state of Texas.

Perhaps a little reading is in order: http://juanitajean.com/

3. I just love the trash thread feature, don't you?

[kentauros]

6. Yes,

but in this case, I want to see more of us trash the thread from within

[maddezmom]

15. Yes

The Texas bashing is tiresome.

[cordelia]

17. Yes, and I find myself using it with

greater frequency lately.

Why this horseshit is tolerated, let alone celebrated is beyond me.

7. "these kind of idiotic posts that make me ashamed of DU"

isn't this a place where we can vent?

Doesn't anyone believe in blowing off steam here?

(i bet i get chastized for that)

these last few days, i feel like i need to watch my own back more...

the truth is, all i have left in me after reading the news EVERY SINGLE DAY

is HOT AIR...


later,

9. if you want to vent

Then vent against sonething specific.

Wait, I mean, LINK to a vent about something specific. Since you never really speak for yourself, I mean.

[kpete]

11. ouch

tried and failed again to use words to explain myself...(way better off with paint)

perhaps my time here has played out.

peace to you Dreamer Tatum

12. Some of us like you very much. You might want to use the sarcasm tag a little more though.

[carolinayellowdog]

10. the Texans who participate in DU are NOT the ones who deserve to read this crap

since they are presumably on your side-- or were until you wanted to expel and invade them

[cordelia]

16. It surprises me that people like the OP are

so willing to expose themselves as the bigots they are.

They have no shame.

It makes some wonder what other prejudices they hold.

5. No, no, no, no. Didn,t work the last time won't work here...................

We would just end up paying for their fence along the Mexican border. No doubt built by Halliburton on a no bid contract.
Then we would have to pay out to Booz Allen Hamilton to provide security administrators to guard the fence.
Then we would have to build an even bigger embassy than the largest embassy in the world we built in Iraq. No doubt built by Halliburton on a no bid contract.
Then we would have to supply good quality Indian labors to provide food service for everybody.
And of course we would have to keep boots on the ground to police the skirmishes between native Texans and native Mexicans, not to mention the battles between various christan sects.
And in the end China would get the Oil.
