Texas Gov. threatens to secede

Almost as soon as I said that Republicans were behaving like children whose toys had been taken away, the lunatic Governor of Texas yesterday told a right-wing "Don't Mess With Texas" Tea Party:

There's a lot of different scenarios. We've got a great union. There's absolutely no reason to dissolve it. But if Washington continues to thumb their nose at the American people, you know, who knows what might come out of that. But Texas is a very unique place, and we're a pretty independent lot to boot.

In other words, if I can't get what want, I'll run away from home. I suppose next he'll want to reinstitute slavery.

We really need a few adult right-wingers. Their current infantile behavior is really foolish.
