Sanctuary States - Yeehaw for the mighty Texas

Sanctuary Cities defy federal laws regarding the enforcement of laws pertaining to illegal aliens. It is my understanding that Texas may not enforce the hideous Obama Rationed Racist Health Care/Ethnic Cleansing Act if it gets signed into law. If arrogant San Francisco can defy federal immigration laws, certainly a State, exercising its State's Rights can refuse to enforce heinous federal laws that ultimately, among other things, result in financial burdens upon the States. I am a "right-wing extremist" as designated by Janet "man-made events" Napolitano and I'm proud of that because I am an adherent of the U.S. Constitution and I believe that the Founders clearly stated the responsibilities of the federal government. That government has consistently and tirelessly expanded federal power over every aspect of our lives. That theft of power is in violation of the U.S. Constitution and of their oath of office. So, more power to Texas, the Republic of Texas, which many may not know but upon becoming a state of the Union in 1845 (?), Texas' Constitution includes a right to leave the Union. State Legislatures are a thing of the past and the legislators need to decide whether they represent us or whether the States are simply chattel under the heavy arm of the Federal Executive. The Congress - House and Senate - of the federal government is fast becoming a place for many folks who are simply GS employees under the control of the Executive. We the people have gone long enough without representation...over the previous 16+ years.

    Several of the original sins of the US constitution and the constitutions of some of the states was washed out by the blood of tens of thousands of patriotic union soldiers at places like Shiloh, Petersburg, and Gettysburg. I think there's no mention of seccession in the current Texas constitution.

    I wouldn't object to seeing Texas go, provided the US brought the Johsnson Space Flight Center back to Hampton, Virginia - where it should have been located in the first place.

    Another important provision of the Texas constitution of 1845 that was abolished by the civil war is given below.

    Article VIII

    SEC. 1. The legislature shall have no power to pass laws for the emancipation of slaves without the consent of their owners, nor without paying their owners, previous to such emancipation, a full equivalent in money for the slaves so emancipated. They shall have no power to prevent emigrants to this State from bringing with them such persons as are deemed slaves by the laws of any of the United States, so long as any person of the same age or description shall be continued in slavery by the laws of this State:

    Commoncents - link already done.

    Malkin - interesting name you are using that is why it is deleted. I am a "right-wing" extremist only as classified by our Czar of Homeland Security.

    Bobillw - Information came from a Texan a few weeks ago when I was speaking with her about my USAA account.
