Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah hahahahah - who's watching Chris Hayes

[malaise]

and the Texas lunatics
Did you see those screaming morans!!!

Secede you mutha fuggers! Secede

[LuvLoogie]

1. No TV. Synopsis?

[malaise]

2. No one should repeat their BS

Obama should shut down all Federal government offices and all the bases. That would sure make them STFU.

[TexasTowelie]

3. You mean this moran?

[malaise]

4. Do these morons have their own currency in Texas

Seriously this is beyond stupid - is is bat shit crazy on steroids

I have family in Texas but they are rational folks - I'm embarrassed for you sane people.

[eShirl]

17. bwahaha!

[doc03]

5. If it turns out the Feds don't take over Texas

and declare Martial Law, the nuts will take credit for stopping the take over. It is scary a man was elected Governor and
a man is being considered to run for President could be that fucking nuts.

[malaise]

10. What is more scary is that enough sane folks haven't run them out of town

This is bat shit crazy on steroids - do they want another civil war?

[A Simple Game]

13. I say we give them their second civil war, remove all military personnel, equipment and

close all of the bases. Then tell them they won. Bye, bye Texas, hello Democratic Presidents for the foreseeable future. Added bonus, we get to deport Gohmert and Cruz from DC or maybe hold them as enemy spies.

[byronius]

39. The state would survive a few months without the federal aid that props it up.

The way it is with all the welfare red states, and the opposite of all the productive blue states that get back far less than they pay to the government, like California.

This case is particularly weird. Mass hysteria is a real phenomenon, and this seems to be ideologically-produced and a threat to national security.

The first outbreak of the bubonic plague in Europe brought about the immediate burning of the Jews, because that is how Europeans of the day were programmed by their churches. These people have the same programming, but are better armed and haven't been really triggered yet.

They're just itching for it. Dreaming about the dramatic end of the movie where all the teabilly ammosexuals rescue the world from the clutches of the gay-married single payer healthcare advocates. (Gasp!)

Only that's not how it's going to end.

[Android3.14]

42. Right on

We will improve ourselves or die trying.

[arcane1]

41. No interstate highway, no medicare/SS, farm subsidies, etc

And sadly, they would blame their misery on those damn lib'ruls!

[awoke_in_2003]

51. Not only that

Who is the biggest customer of goods from Texas? The other 49 states.

[jwirr]

44. To Gitmo with them.

[Hekate]

50. Based on crazy rhetoric, I think there is quite a segment of the country that wants war....

Really. What I thought was surely a settled matter after the Civil War turns out to be far from over in way too many people's minds.

Add to them the religious wackos who are eagerly waiting for the thousand years of chaos and bloodshed that's supposed to coincide with the Second Coming of Christ, and we seem to have God knows how many Americans who are personally locked and loaded.

Yikes.

[malaise]

60. You aree 100% correct

and it is very scary. The only way to mah up this madness is to tax all religious 'businesses'.

[shenmue]

6. Apparently, nobody told the Texas Rangers baseball team

They're playing the Tampa Bay Rays tonight.

[Wilms]

8. I hope they have their passports.

Might need them to get back home.

[Yavin4]

7. If Texas secedes, the Cowboys can no longer be "America's Team"

Secede MoFos!

[malaise]

12. Bwaaah

Are they really America's team??

[Skittles]

27. they are South America's team

[malaise]

28. Ha

[awoke_in_2003]

52. Who is the winningnest team since the merger?

The Pittsburgh Steelers

[spanone]

9. my jaw dropped to the floor.....the hate & ignorance is frightening.

they are insane.

the republican they had on was appalled by these fucking insaniacs....and when rick perry thinks it's a bad idea.......

[URL=.html][IMG][/IMG][/URL]

[malaise]

11. This is beyond insane

There really are no words for these morons.

[kairos12]

14. I thought it was Morans.

[gelsdorf]

18. Thank You !!! n/t

[spanone]

25. here's proof....

[malaise]

22. LOL

Both

[DemocratSinceBirth]

15. I am watching Cavs-Bulls

Man can not live on politics alone.

[jen63]

16. I'm actually watching the takeover!

[IMG][/IMG]

[gelsdorf]

19. Those phones are setting off sleeper cells of pizza delivery drivers all over Texas n/t

[jen63]

20. HA!

[sarge43]

21. "Hey mom. Yeah, we're in Texas."

"No mom, no shooting, but that butterfly net and tranq darts you sent me came in handy. Yeah, I know; back in the day you were stationed here."

[jen63]

23. Nice!

[malaise]

24. That is the best sport in town

[awoke_in_2003]

53. OMG. Obama phones!!!!!

[Skittles]

26. they are fucking idiots

no one does idiocy like Texans

[sarge43]

29. Even Florida Man is thinking "WTF". n/t

[malaise]

31. OK you win the thread

This is the true meaning of ignorance is bliss - the governor and the fugging lieutenant governor are a key part of this madness - WTFF???

[sarge43]

37. Thank you

However, jen63's picture of the invasion force, post #16, should get the thread award. I'm still giggling about that one and I normally don't do giggles.

[Skittles]

34. Florida man does the showcasing-WTFs

but for pure day-to-day idiocy, Texas win, hands down

[sarge43]

38. Point taken

Florida Man's idiocy is a one off gaudy, but with Texas idiots it's a life style choice

[MaggieD]

30. Texas seceding would be a dream come true

.... unless they really are going to go Blue as predicted with the Latino vote. In that case I can be patient and wait.

[malaise]

33. Not for my sane relatives and friends

although this is a new low. Hopefully these backward morans will be whipped one of these days

[MaggieD]

35. Yeah, it's a bummer for liberals that live there

I feel for them.

[Skittles]

48. it's actually kind of fun, tormenting Texas conservatives

sometimes it can be very entertaining

[Miigwech]

32. Texans get new via rumors

Since the dawn of man, rumor, superstition and fear have ruled the ignorant. Yes, we are seeing the same premise alive and well in Texas today. Texas is not alone. Still today, we see in some African counties, witch hunts, men thinking that they can cure AIDS by having sex with a virgin and eating body parts from albinos, will cure a disease. Back water rural communities, blame natural disasters on certain groups (even here in the US!). All of these folks suffer from extreme ignorance ... just as humans did 1500 years ago. Knowledge takes a lot of effort, access to information and a trust in those that are educated (SCIENCE !) is essential. But these poor Texas folks do not have clue. They are stuck in the age old form of information known as, RUMOR. But, they are worse because they have access to every form of information with just the click of a computer. Soooooo stupid, it is shocking!

[neverforget]

36. I can't wait until the Army of the Potomac marches on Austin

[montanacowboy]

49. Miss Scarlett.......

the Yankees are coming... the Yankees are coming

OMG

[world wide wally]

40. Yes! PLEASE secede......pretty please?

[avebury]

46. Why don't we just give Texas back to Mexico? nt

[jwirr]

43. It was very funny. But as I watched just how crazy they are I wondered if when the exercises

start down there would these crazies try to fight back? They really think they are being invaded.

[winter is coming]

54. Does anyone in Texas care about this other than a handful of Texas politicians?

I'd expect most Texans to be more interesting in how their sports teams are doing.

[jwirr]

57. I would assume that it is a small handful of people who are that crazy. However, one person

with a gun can be very dangerous. Right now they are screaming and yelling. And as one can see in the video they do not believe anyone.

[hedgehog]

58. It only takes one itchy trigger finger to make this very unfunny.

[jwirr]

59. Yes, that was what I was thinking. And Texas us full of guns.

[jwirr]

45. When are the exercises set to take place? In other words how long do the crazies have to wait?

[redstateblues]

47. The local political explanation

Helped me to understand just how screwed up Texas is. Abbot, worried about a challenge from the right by his Lt. Gov, is going to the far far far crazy right. When will Texas rise up? What was all the talk about Texas becoming purple. Depressing.

[sarge43]

55. What makes this especially ludicrous is

with the exception of CA, TX has more active duty military stationed there than any other state in the country.

Yo morans, don't need to invade. They're already occupying.

[ms liberty]

56. Ignorance and prejudice and fear walk hand in hand...

The immortal words of Neil Peart (Rush)...from Witch Hunt, on Moving Pictures.

[world wide wally]

61. I almost resent that Texas gets representation in our government. It's like having crazy

Uncle Charie's name on the checkbook.

[Paladin]

62. Everybody enjoying their Texas-Bashing this morning? That's nice.

Feels great to direct that much blanket hatred against an entire state, to just lump the entire population into a crudely-drawn editorial cartoon, right? Cloaking yourselves in self-righteousness and ignoring the fact that over 3 million Texans voted for Obama in both 2008 and 2012? Ignoring the feelings of the loyal Texas Democrats who show up at DU for a little support, and instead get repeatedly shit upon, in threads like this one? Glad to be of some entertainment value to you. Oh, and by the way: Texas isn't seceding from the U.S., and I'm not seceding from DU. Fucking deal with it.

[malaise]

63. Why don't you read the thread n/t

[DrDan]

64. I get you . . . being from Florida

I am not sure if the region-bashing around here is more frustrating or more embarrassing. In either case, it is bigotry, plain and simple. Bigotry that used to not be allowed, but for some reason, is now ok.

[Hiraeth]

65. No wonder Hillary looks liberal in Texas. Compared to this, she sounds reasonable.
