Some of you guys act as if what one person does speaks for everyone or everything. Some of y'all act like this was a serious email that all Texans had got together and agreed on this.

When I first started reading the thread, that is what I meant to point out in my response. Then as I read further I completely forgot what started the thread.
I went to college in Texas an unfortunately long time ago. While I was there I did come to the conclusion that Texans, as a rule, were Texans first and Americans second. I don't mean that as a dig or complaint. It is just something that I gradually became aware of. Maybe that is because Texas is the only state that got to the point of actually having a functioning national government before joining the Union.
That may actually be a good thing and more in line with what many of our Founding Fathers were looking for.
I loved my time in Dallas and I would not hesitate to move back.
