Texas, Our Texas -- Which One?

First off, I think Gov Perry is an imbecile. The only reason he said the stupid stuff he said about secession is because he's worried about Kay Hutchinson running against him for Governor.

Texas can't secede...not without a fight. But it can divide into 5 states. Here's what we can do:

New States of convenient size not exceeding four in number, in addition to said State of Texas and having sufficient population, may, hereafter by the consent of said State, be formed out of the territory thereof, which shall be entitled to admission under the provisions of the Federal Constitution

And here's a good commentary on it...

All good Texas History teachers in Texas teach their students that Texas could end up with 10 Senators.

I kinda doubt it will happen, but Obama could push us far enough...we have our own sub.
