@Burnsway: Then why is it going before the White House? just asking..
@ShineyApples: True request from our States Government to secede is not going infront of the white house at the moment, anyone even Micky Mouse can write a petition on the white house site. Anything over 25,000 signatures has to be addressed. Our States Government or any Group for that matter wants to do it we would obviously ask for a 
eaceful divorce first. But we do not need Obamas Permission. Thats why I said in the other thread that I wouldn't sign it if my States Government didn't even sign it....LOL If we secede it WONT be through a petition someone just wrote up on a web site...goes a bit deeper than that....HA!These petitions are great as they are letting Big Government know we the people are not too happy but until My state votes within my state on if thats what we IN TEXAS want I just don't see it going anywhere.But it should be looked at as a very serious thing that so many did sign so fast in Texas, this may make our states government take some action...we will see..:-)
