Don't know if anyone has seen this yet....I thought it was pretty good! ;-)
The Texans Solution to Kerry winning Presidency
Please note that Texas is the only state with a legal right to secede from the Union (please refer to the Texas-American Annexation Treaty of 1848).
We Texans love y'all, but we'll have to take action if Kerry wins president over Bush. We'll miss you, too.
Texans has given all those complainers plenty of time to get used to the results. After seeing the whiners along the campaign route, the folks from Texas are considering taking matters into our own hands.
Here is our solution:
#1: Let John Kerry become President of the United States. (All 49 states)
#2: George W. Bush becomes the President of the Republic of Texas.
So what does Texas have to do to survive as a Republic?
1. NASA is just south of Huston, 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 tern "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. Yankee states? Sorry about that!
5. Natural Gas-Again we have all we need and it's too bad about those northern states. John Kerry will figure a way to keep them warm….
6. Computer Industry-we currently lead the nation in producing computer chips and communications: Small places like Texas Instruments, Dell Computer, EDS, Raytheon, National Semiconductor, Delphi, Nortel, Alcatel, etc, etc. This list goes on & on.
7. Health Centers-We have the largest research centers of Cancer Research, the best Burn Centers & the top Trauma Units in the world and other large health planning centers.
8. We have enough colleges to keep us going: U.T.; Texas A&M; Texas Tech; Rice; SMU; University of Houston; Baylor; UNT; Texas Women's University, etc. Ivy grows better in the south anyway.
9. We have a ready supply of workers. (Just open the border when we need some more.)
10. We have control of the Paper Industry, Plastics, Insurance, etc.
11. In case of a foreign invasion, we have the Texas National Guard and the Texas Air National Guard. 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 less than 24 hours if we need it. If the situation really gets bad, we can always call the Department of Public Safety and ask them to send over a couple of Texas Rangers.
12. We are totally self sufficient in beef, poultry, hogs and several types of grain, fruit and vegetables and lets not forget seafood from the Gulf. And everybody down here knows how to cook 'em so that they taste good. Don't need any food!
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 the rest of the United States under President Kerry: Since you won't have the refineries to get gas for your cars, only President Kerry will be able to drive around in his 9 mile per gallon SUV. (Oh, the one his 'family' owns—not him…) The rest of the United States will have to walk or ride bikes or horses. You won't have any TV, as the Space Center in Houston will cut off your communications. You won't have any natural gas to heat your home, but since Mr. Kerry has predicted global warming, you won't need it!
