We Texans love  y’all, but we’ll probably have to take action if Barack Obama wins the  election. We’ll miss you too.

Here is what can happen:

1:  Barack Hussein Obama is President of the United States, and Texas secedes  from the Union in summer of 2013.

2: George W. Bush will become the  President of the Republic of Texas . You might not think that he talks too  pretty, but we haven’t had another terrorist attack, and the economy was  fine until the effects of the Democrats lowering the qualifications for  home loans came to roost.

So  what does Texas have to do to survive as a Republic?

1. NASA is  just south of Houston , Texas . We will control the space  industry.

2. We refine over 85% of the gasoline in the United  States .

3. Defense Industry–we have over 65% of it. The term  “Don’t mess with Texas,” will take on a whole new meaning.

4. Oil –  we can supply all the oil that the Republic of Texas will need for the  next 300 years. What will the other states do? Gee, we don’t know. Why not  ask Obama?

5. Natural Gas – again we have all we need, and it’s too  bad about those Northern States. John Kerry and Al Gore will have to  figure out a way to keep them warm….

6. Computer Industry – we  lead the nation in producing computer chips and communications equipment  -small companies like Texas Instruments, Dell Computer, EDS, Raytheon,  National Semiconductor,Motorola, Intel, AMD, Atmel, Applied Materials,  Ball Microconductor, Dallas Semiconductor, Nortel, Alcatel, etc, etc. The  list goes on and on.

7. Medical Care – We have the research centers  for cancer research, the best burn centers and the top trauma units in the  world, as well as other large health centers. The Houston Medical Center  alone employees over 65,000 people.

8. We have enough colleges to  keep us getting smarter: University of Texas , Texas A&M, Texas Tech,  Texas Christian, Rice, SMU, University of Dallas , University of Houston ,  Baylor, UNT ( University of North Texas ), Texas Women’s University, etc.  Ivy grows better in the South anyway.

9.  We have an intelligent and energetic work force, and it isn’t restricted  by a bunch of unions. Here in Texas , it’s a Right to Work State and,  therefore, it’s every man and women for themselves. We just go out and get  the job done. And if we don’t like the way one company operates, we get a  job somewhere else.

10. We have essential control of the paper,  plastics, and insurance industries, etc.

11. In case of a foreign  invasion, we have the Texas National Guard, the Texas Air National Guard,  and several military bases. We don’t have an Army, but since everybody  down here has at least six rifles and a pile of ammo, we can raise an Army  in 24 hours if we need one. If the situation really gets bad, we can  always call the Department of Public Safety and ask them to send over a  Texas Ranger — only need one!

12.  We are totally self-sufficient in beef, poultry, hogs, and several types  of grain, fruit and vegetables, and let’s not forget seafood from the  Gulf. Also, everybody down here knows how to cook them so that they taste  good. Don’t need any food.

13. Three of the ten largest cities in  the United States , and twenty- three of the 100 largest cities in the  United States , are located inTexas. And Texas also has more land than  California , New York , New Jersey , Connecticut , Delaware , Hawaii ,  Massachusetts , Maryland , Rhode Island and Vermont combined.

14.  Trade: Three of the ten largest ports in the United States are located in  Texas .

15. We also manufacture cars down here, but we don’t need  to. You see, nothing rusts in Texas, so our vehicles stay beautiful and  run well for decades.

 16.  We also will be in charge of protecting our borders so, a visa may be  reuired to enter at the border crossings.

This  just names a few of the items that will keep the Republic of Texas in good  shape. There isn’t a thing out there that we need and don’t  have.

Now to the rest of the United States under President Obama:  Since you won’t have the refineries to get gas for your cars, only  President Obama will be able to drive around in his big 5 mpg SUV.The rest  of the United States will have to walk or ride bikes.

You won’t  have any TV as the Space Center in Houston will cut off satellite  communications. You won’t have any natural gas to heat your homes, but  since Mr. Obama has predicted global warming, you will not need the gas as  long as you survive the 2000 years it will take to get enough heat from  Global Warming.

Signed,
The People of Texas

P.S. This  is not a threatening letter – just a note to give you something to think  about!
