Aftermath and repercussions of Obama victory

[TitoFan]

@TitoFan , my State of Texas overwhelmingly voted for Romney 57% to 41% for Obama. So I don't believe having a Dem president will amount to a hill of beans, and for the most part it's not going to change the way we do things here in Texas.

As for Texas wanting to succeed from the Union, that's bullshit talk that's been going on for the last 100 years, it ain't ever going to happen.

I know it won't, @Mars_ax. It's pretty much inconceivable that a state would ever separate itself from the U.S. It's funny... but the "United" States are sometimes anything BUT.

I believe the "United" States goes back to the original 13 States. If the Presidential election earlier this month showed one thing, it's that the "United States" is anything but united. More specifically, Americans are divided on social and political issues, but that's nothing new.

I know this has been beat to death, but I just couldn't resist.


Seven states qualify for secession response from White House



What put this over the edge for me as far as comedic content was the statement I've excerpted below:


"A counter-petition has been filed calling for the state capital Austin to secede from Texas and remain part of the United States".


I've paid good money to see stand-up comedy that's not as funny as this.

Fuck Austin.
