I'm a Texan and I oppose these measures, but to sum up the debate in your "DO IT, GOD DAMMIT. And take Arizona with you" does not belong. I'm pointing this out to help you, as it's identical to someone saying "speak English or get out of MY country!".

Seaver, I respect your opinion more than many of the liberals on this board, because you are always willing to back up your position rather than regurgitate talking points fed to you by some partisan hack. But I fail to see the correlation between telling Americans to get out of the country if they don't like the politics and taking up
Gov. Perry's threat that Texas would leave on it's own accord. Of course not everyone in Texas voted the douchebag into office, but he is the executive head of the state, and as such "speaks" for Texas. Hey, I'm from Illinois, and had a scumbag governor run out of office recently; for better or worse, the governor of a state is representative of the politics of that state.
