A friend jokingly asked me what would happen to all those soldiers at Ft. Polk if Texas seceded.

I told him "they'll be surrounding Governor Goodhair's home with tanks, will arrest him, and will deliver him to the US Justice department."

The whole notion is idiotic, and based entirely upon Perry's failure to understand that the right to secede was never a right of Texas. The reality is about one quarter of Texans would say they would support secession, but if push came to shove, that would dwindle to maybe 5%.
