There are a lot of "petitions" out there on the White House website. There are two or three of particular interest...
"Deport Everyone Who Signed A Petition To Withdraw Their State From The United States Of America". This one has 14.377 signatures.
"Strip the Citizenship from Everyone who Signed a Petition to Secede and Exile Them". This one has 8,566 signatures.
"Force all states to pay their portion of the national debt before they can secede from the union". 1725 signatures.
"Remove "In God We Trust" from U.S. currency and remove "under God" from the Pledge of Allegiance". 3181 signatures.
Some folks apparently fail to understand the concept of a Constitutional Republic. :) They must have slept through their American Government classes.
It looks like most states have a petition to secede on the website. It also looks as though at least some of the Liberals are starting to realize that this could interrupt their Gravy Train. That the "producers" are tired of providing for the "takers".
Interesting.
The petition for Texas secession now has nearly 100,000 signatures. They need only 25,000 to receive a response from the White House. There is a petition for the City of Austin, Texas to secede from the state of Texas and remain part of the United States. I believe that Georgia has more than the required 25,000 signatures. North Carolina is over the 25,000 threshold.
Will it do any good? Probably not. What it does do is give those who didn't vote for obama an opportunity to speak their mind and voice their displeasure at the Marxist policies of the current regime. Democracy in action. It brings the anger of The People to the forefront in a national forum, which is, in my opinion, a good thing.
Of course, I believe that it will all be ignored.
Like Benghazi. And Fast and Furious. And a hundred other issues.
We have more important issues to deal with. Issues like the sex lives and spending habits of our Generals.
Here is the petition website. Go take a look. Please, if you want to start a new petition for your state, make sure that there isn't one started already. Each petition stands on its own. Each petition needs to meet the threshold of 25,000 signatures to be "eligible" for a response. "Similar" petitions will not be combined to achieve the requisite number of signatures.
Stay safe.
I've commented many times on the lack of REAL education in our schools. If some of those Idjits actually understood the Constitution Obie never would have been elected in the first place.
ReplyDeleteGreyLocke... I agree with you.
ReplyDeleteThe education system in our public schools has been bent toward Socialism since LBJ. I believe that they have completely taken it over.
They call themselves Progressives and and wax about how its all science. A linear existence. The past doesn't matter. History never repeats itself. Every day is a new day, unaffected by yesterday.
Yet they continuously drag that "slavery thing" along with them. The "racism thing". They hold onto the past in that regard because whitey craps his pants at being called "racist".
I don't think that most people realize that fully half the population of this country has been educated in a Socialist public education system. Half of the population truly believe in obama. This is what they've been taught. This is what they want. This is their goal and it is within their grasp... They will do whatever is necessary to achieve their goal.
It's right there before our eyes and we let it continue. We lack the will to do anything about it.
It ain't gonna be pretty.
50 states after only a week.
