Secession petitions flood White House site (POLITICO)
By BYRON TAU | 11/12/12 10:55 AM EST
President Obama's reelection last week has prompted a slew of requests to secede from the United States.
The two most popular petitions, Texas and Louisiana, have both drawn more than 10,000 signatures each as of Monday morning. The Texas petition needs only 7,000 more signatures to trigger an official White House response.
.......
"The citizens of the US suffer from blatant abuses of their rights such as the [National Defense Authorization Act], the [Transportation Security Administration], etc," the Texas petition charges. "Given that the state of Texas maintains a balanced budget and is the 15th largest economy in the world, it is practically feasible for Texas to withdraw from the union, and to do so would protect it's citizens' standard of living and re-secure their rights and liberties in accordance with the original ideas and beliefs of our founding fathers which are no longer being reflected by the federal government."
......
Most of the petitions simply quote the Declaration of Independence in their request to depart the country.
As of Monday, residents of Kentucky, Oregon, Montana, North Dakota, Mississippi, North Carolina, Florida, Georgia, New York, New Jersey, Colorado, Arkansas, South Carolina, and Missouri have all expressed interest in dissolving their relationship with the United States.
Talk about a bunch of sore losers right.

Half of the signatures coming from the "disenfranchised" white nationals who wanted Ron Paul and the other half from giddy liberals watching the fun.
Move on. Get over it. You lost. Grow up. Get a job!
Please go! We'll be better off without you! 
If they want another Civil War, I know Mitt is interested in lots of horses and bayonets
Please, do go on.
Sorta like they want to take away YOUR 'entitlements'.
Hands off THEIRS.
