Texas Governor: Texas too Good for America

At a tea-bag, sorry, tea-party today Texas Governor Rick Perry declared that Texas could secede “if Washington continues to thumb their nose at the American people.”

And don’t be frightened by the HuffPo link, it’s actually an AP story.

Now I don’t mean to put words in Governor Perry’s mouth in that he did not suggest secession, just mentioned it as a possibility.

Still, really man? Secession? Really? I think someone needs to put his head down on his desk for a moment.

Then again, if it would clear our mountains of Texan skiers, it might not be such a bad idea…

In the end though, just another great example of Republican hyperbole. Do they actually think this sounds inspiring or something? Cause really it’s just alienating.
