In case things get a little tougher during the next few months
(or Years), we In LOUISIANA , TEXAS , OKLAHOMA & ARKANSAS have a plan.

Maybe you don't know it, but LOUISIANA , TEXAS , OKLAHOMA & ARKANSAS have a legal right to secede from the Union . (Reference the Texas/Louisiana-American Annexation Treaty of 1848.)

Us TEXOARKLANS love y'all Americans, but we'll probably have to take action since BaracK Obama won the election and is now the President of the U.S.A. We'll miss ya'll though.

Here is what can happen:

Barack Hussein Obama, after becoming the President of the United States, begins to try to create a socialist country, then TEXAS, LOUISIANA, ARKANSAS and OKLAHOMA announce that they are going to secede from the Union ...



So what does TEXOARKLA have to do to survive as a Republic?

1. NASA is just south of Houston, Texas ... We will control the space industry.
2. We refine over 90% of the gasoline in the United States ....
3. Defense Industry--we have over 65% of it. The term "Don't mess with TEXAS ," will take on a whole new meaning.
4. Oil - we can supply all the oil that the Republic of TEXOARKLA will need for the next 300 years. What will the other states do? Gee, we don't know. Why not ask Obama?
5. Natural Gas - again, we have all we need and it's too bad about those Northern States. John Kerry and Al Gore will just have to figure out a way to keep them warm...
6. Computer Industry - we lead the nation in producing computer chips and communications equipment – small companies like Texas Instruments, Dell Computer, EDS, Raytheon, National Semiconductor, Motorola, Intel, AMD, Nortel, Alcatel, etc.. The list goes on and on.
7. Medical Care - We have the research centers for cancer research, the best burn centers and the top trauma units in the world, as well as other large health centers.
8. We have enough colleges to keep educating and making smarter citizens: University of Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University, UL-Lafayette, UL-Monroe, LSU, Louisiana Tech University, University of Arkansas, Arkansas State University, Baylor, Rice, TCU, SMU and MANY more.
9. We have an intelligent and energetic work force and it isn't restricted by a bunch of unions. Here in TEXOARKLA, we are a Right-to-Work State and, therefore, it's every man and woman for themselves. We just go out and get the job done. And if we don't like the way one company operates, we get a job somewhere else.
10. We have essential control of the paper, plastics, and insurance industries, etc.
11. In case of a foreign invasion, we have the TEXOARKLA National Guard, the TEXOARKLA Air National Guard, and several military bases. We don't have an Army, but since everybody down here has at least six guns and a pile of ammo, we can raise an Army in 24 hours if we need one. If the situation really gets bad, we can always call the Department of Public Safety and ask them to send over the Texas Rangers.
12. We are totally self-sufficient in beef, poultry, hogs, and several types of grain, fruit and vegetables and let's not forget seafood from the Gulf. Also, everybody down here knows how to cook them so that they taste good. We don't need any food from somewhere else. (May need to rethink this one)
13. FIVE of the ten largest cities in the United States and THIRTY-TWO of the 100 largest cities in the United States are located in TEXOARKLA. And TEXOARKLA also has more land than California , New York , New Jersey , Connecticut , Delaware , Hawaii , Massachusetts , Maryland , Rhode Island and Vermont combined.
14. Trade: FIVE of the ten largest ports in the United States are located in TEXOARKLA.
15. We also manufacture cars down here, but we don't need to. You see, nothing rusts in TEXOARKLA so our vehicles stay beautiful and run well for decades.

This just names a few of the items that will keep the Republic of TEXOARKLA in good shape. There isn't a thing out there that we need and don't have.

Now to the rest of you folks in the United States under President Obama:
Since you won't have the refineries to get gas for your cars, only President Obama will be able to drive around in his big 9 mpg SUV. The rest of the United States will have to walk or ride bikes.
You won't have any TV as the Space Center in Houston will cut off satellite communications.
You won't have any natural gas to heat your homes, but since Al Gore has predicted global warming, you will not need the gas as long as you survive the 2000 years it will take to get enough heat from Global Warming.
In other words, the rest of ya'll in the USA can enjoy change!

Signed,
The People of TEXOARKLA

P.S. This is not a threatening letter - just a note to give you something to think about! Sleep well tonight 'cause the Eyes of TEXOARKLA are on YOU!!
 
I can see this one headed to the political board pretty quick.
 
If that happened, the global conglomerate would do everything they could to make sure no trade routes would be open to them and they would become like Cuba.

I like the idea of nullification to let the states handle their own affairs without the federal gov DICTATING what they do or don't do.

I'd like to see many more states operate that way before they would ever secede, but it would be a last resort if anything is left and oblunder has not turned everyone against eachother.
 
I say, keep it simple, just name the whole thing Texas. Reminder: this is the "joke/anything goes thread"...some entertainment with the morning coffee.
 
Hey TEXOARKLA you may want to introduce yourself to Quebec up here in Canada. That is an idea some of them have been playing around with for years. Although hopefully they never leave... to nice a province with very nice people!
 
I've heard this before and I've told my wife if this happens and Nebraska doesn't do the same thing, get ready because we're moving south.
 
I'm gonna have a problem with #12, don't know if I can live without Pineapples. Guess I gotta swipe a few trees before we "lock it down"!!! LOL!!! Oh, and forgot we gotta let (read: Kick) Ciro Rodriguez and Sheila Jackson-Lee out first.

I'll ship them to ya buddy for some fuel for my cars!:cheers:
 
Hey Left coast Jeff;Didnt know anyone except libs lived in Monterrey.Im in Pacific Grove quite a bit,always surrounded by libs.Hey can we slide Mo into the tex thing?
 
We've got the same problems up here. We have 10 provinces, but only 3 count. Quebec gets what they want by threatening to leave.Ontario seems to feel it's the center of the universe. Alberta feels it shouldn't have to share it's oil revenues. The rest of us, well, we don't count for squat.
 
Don't let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya!!!!!! :bootysha:

remember, if we split Alaska into 2 states Texas would then be the 3rd largest state :-D
 
If the situation really gets bad, we can always call the Department of Public Safety and ask them to send over the Texas Rangers.
I really can't see how a baseball team is going to defend y'all from an invasion...:scratch:
 
I knew that I had seen this map someplace, and there may be an updated one somewhere:
http://www.taxfoundation.org/UserFiles/Image/Blog/ftsbs-large.jpg

The article that explains it:
http://www.taxfoundation.org/blog/show/1397.html

Texas might get tired of supporting their welfare neighbors. While Texans pay the Fed gov't $1.00 and only gets 94 cents back, Louisiana, Arkansas & Oklahoma pay in $1 and get back about $1.47.

What is interesting is the money those "liberal welfare states" get back.
Check it out. We might be happy for y'all to take a hike. But remember, united we stand, divided we fall...

Nah, that's not my way of doing things. I'm a "stand or fall" kinda guy. To each his own, if you like it I love it just keep it away from me and everything will be alright. I don't need or use rhetoric, smears and name calling, the Far Left has that covered pretty well. All I need is truth, the great purifier. No lynching coming from my way and I'm not a big advocate of the word even though I know you don't mean it literally. @ Clhyer, we'd be happy to take a hike, without interference from you "outsiders" Texoarkla will take care of it's own. I'd get a kick out of watching the "hand to mouth" blue states struggle. And on your beloved "taxfoundation.org, they are waaay off the reservation and here's the counterpunch! http://www.cbpp.org/cms/?fa=view&id=93 . Bunch of lying losers. @burgmopar, not the baseball team, these Texas Rangers... http://www.txdps.state.tx.us/TexasRangers/ :-D @ Dfnsmn34, DEAL!!! LOL!!!
 
WOW!!!! This "joke" thread has ceased to be funny!!!! I figure if y'all are that ill, y'all can go.. Why not try moving? Doubt the US would mind if all y'all left. All I hear is complaints where are all the people with solutions? Y'all want to run your mouths.....try spouting intelligent solutions instead of continuing the trend of spewing ignorant dissent!

wasn't really aimed at you personally , spent some good times in texas and arkansas really liked the people , did think it was funny where the give and take states were on the map but you might notice I live a little further north than the pinko commie lefties you refer too lol:-D

No sir, nothing taking personally. I'm too lighthearted on most subjects for such. I've been to the Great White North a few times in the late 70's and early 80's, as I remember it was very pretty and would like to go back in the near future.
