1. I guess so.
"God Bless Texas...when we're faced with adversity, we don't surrender...we reload and blast the shit out of our problems with our guns! THAT's the solution to high unemployment, my friends...RELOAD!!!!"

2. Remember that that rebellion by Texas was caused by

6. Well, maybe it's a good, old fashioned filibuster
I was told by a polisci professor years ago that one could get some good Louisiana recipes from Huey Long's old filibuster speeches.
