The 29th of August promises to be the turning point in Texas and in the United States. A crowd of Texans plan to descend on the state capitol and demand that Governor Perry and our elected officials either enforce the 10th amendment on the federal government or secede from the union. The big question is if the governor will show up or if the pressing other business he has that day is more important. As of this writing he will not be there to receive the petition being put forth by Gerry Donaldson of drawaline.org.
This is going to be one of, if not the most important events in recent Texas history. Gerry has collected a few thousand signatures for this petition for sovereignty or secession. The Texas Nationalist Movement has a reported million signatures on their petition that is just for
secession.
Our leaders have not paid attention to recent events. The public has been peacefully holding tea parties that have really just been ignored by the rulers of this land. They recently have been getting an angry earful at town hall meetings. The lapdog media has been calling them mobs of GOP operatives and so has the left elitist leaders. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
This movement has cut clear across party lines. Citizens of this country are fed up with our elected officials spending us into bankruptcy and disrupting our lives. This has led us to the events planned on the 29th.
It is plain that the federal government will not change unless change is forced upon it. Governor Perry needs to get his priorities straight. Texans have had enough being ignored and that is never a good thing.
Will he and the legislature push for and enforce Texas sovereignty or will we the People of Texas push secession on them? Will we change the direction this country is heading or will the words "This meeting can do nothing further to save the country." be heard
again?
