Texas Nationalism 101

Texas Nationalism is an umbrella that covers many different groups with many different understandings as to just what that ideology entails. When it all began the reception was one of humor. No one took the very idea of the Republic of Texas rising again very seriously. Lone Star Beer even had an ad poking jokes at the idea with the beer being the “National Beer of Texas.” In the ‘50’s and ‘60’s things were going along fairly well.  All except the Kennedy thing, but, you know, stuff happens. If you will note, no Yankee has driven through Dallas with the top down since. As long as everybody is buying steaks and gasoline Texans will put up with most anything. 

Then the Nortes began to take themselves a tab too seriously. First there was the Arab thing. Now, work with me here. Why go all the way to Africa to buy oil, and have to bring it back to Texas to refine it when we have oil right HERE? In 1968 I could buy five gallons of gas for $1.88. Do the math. Today, I could put $1.88 worth of gasoline under my armpits! And for what? So some camel jockey can fund ISIS and bring Ebola across the Laredo bridge? On what planet does that make any sense? And, yeah, I called them camel jockeys because that’s what they are. It riles me when some Saudi is referred to as a “Prince.” A prince is an Englishman with a pedigree as long as Rapunzel’s hair, not some guy eating locusts out in the Sahara. A few definitions needed here. 

Anyway, at the direction of the United States, Texas oil was ignored and Saudi oil became the benchmark. Yeah, yeah, the Bushes did it but if you will NOTE, the Bushes are NOT Texans! Willie Nelson is a Texan, George Bush and all the others are yankees! Texas survived that, however. The state flourished in spite of it. Then, in true New York fashion, the money began to flow OUT of Texas more that INTO Texas. You see, that’s the way Nortes work. Wall Street rules the roost. And they rule it with fast talk and paper money. Think of this. New York City doesn’t produce one thing except bull ca ca. No, I’m serious, stop laughing. Show me one cow on Manhattan Island. Forget that stupid statue of a bull on Wall Street. Actually, that’s subliminal. . . a bull. A FREAKING BULL. Bull. . . bull ca ca, work with me here. No, New Yorkers are bean counters and it’s aways somebody ELSE’S beans. 

Texas has always held to the constitution. We figured the Americans would at least honor that, since they WROTE it. Well, we were wrong. As long as it’s some guys drinking beer and watching the Steelers it’s all very fine, but the very minute a Texan implies that it might not be kosher to impose THEIR interpretation of that document on what is basically a whole different set of people over a thousand miles away, well that’s another matter. The fact of the matter is we simply believed that the law of the land was the law of the land. The north thinks that the law of the land applies only to them and we Texans are to bow respectfully and kiss the glove. Well, this is where Texas Nationalism was fueled into high gear. We had a little different idea about what THEY could kiss. 

The groups began to form. Now, we’re not idiots, no matter what that professor told you at Harvard. We TOOK Texas from Mexico and we were underpaid and short of powder when we did it. We know we can’t go to war with the US. But here’s their flaw. The Yanks believe in money. Any money. They let their Federal Reserve print hot checks and they covet them as if they were gold. They are NOT gold, they are lies. They cry and wring their hands over the price of Saudi oil, while the “princes” pound sand up their Ivy League posteriors. Texas has a better idea. 

As I’ve said before, and I’ll say it again, Texas IS a nation. Texas is the Republic of Texas de facto. Our problem, at present is that we’ve let so many Nortes into the Republic, making insane decisions that undermine the welfare of the people. Judges who arrest preachers for talking AFTER a meeting is over. Cops who arrest honest citizens for legally carrying guns on a country road. State Department of Public Safety Officers who arrest people for WATER PISTOLS. Border guards who are reduced to changing diapers while the Cartels have a traffic jam bringing crack into the region. I could go on and on, and you know I’m right. And homosexual comedians out in California poking fun at patriots for standing up for the very same constitution that guarantees them the right to be a Sodomite.And yeah, Mayor Parker I SAID that, and you can feel free to copy and past this on your rotund butt!  Swat them bees, swat them bees. 

So, the Texas Nationalist Movement began to solidify. A small group here, a small group there, and the philosophy began to standardize. Certain precepts began to form.  First and foremost we realized the Yanks were crazy. Next, it is accepted that the north is fine with anything so long as all the money goes to New York. Stop laughing! It’s true. Let me ask you, what caused the Confederacy? “Oh, Bill, that was ‘cause of all them slaves down there. Lincoln wanted all men to be free.” If you believe that have I got a bridge for YOU! Half price, too. Lincoln didn’t give a FLIP about the slaves so long as the cotton money funneled to Wall Street. The Confederacy formed because the South got plumb sick and tired of funding northern factories. Check this out. Those poor ol’ slaves picking all that cotton brought a tear to your eye, but those CHILDREN in the garment factories, working twelve hours a day, well, that didn’t worry you at all, now DID it? Slavery drove down wages in the south and southern working class whites were just as much the victims of it as were the blacks in the fields. Only five percent of whites in the south had slaves and they were at the behest of the northern bankers waiting on that next shipment of cheap, affordable cotton to fill the coffers of New York banks. Industrial revolution? Give me a freaking break! That didn’t come about until the north had to PAY a decent wage to get that cotton up there. Then and only then did they come up with all these ingenious ideas on how to do that with less labor and more machineary.   As long as Uncle Tom was in his cabin Fieldstien, Goldman, and Woodward were JUST FINE with it. 

Sam Houston said, “Texas will one day raise its head again among the nations,” and he was right. We are doing that right now.  That’s what the Texas Nationalist Movement is all about. We are beginning to act like a nation, trade like a nation, and defend our borders like a nation, and that ticks off the northern power brokers because it exposes their hypocrisy! Texas will win its independence simply because the United States cannot sustain without Texas money. It’s as simple as that. Stop laughing. Look at Austin. . . look at Detroit. Texas can and will separate itself from the lunacy that has ruled Washington for too long. You will look up and one day just realize Texas IS different, it IS independent, and the rest of the world WILL accept it into the world economy. 

Imagine a country where you can go to work and earn a living wage. A place where your daughter can ride her bike downtown, have a milkshake and return home safely. A place where churches are respected, and people who dress in weird get ups, and preach hate are forced out of the community, and a place where that dime in your pocket is made out of silver is is actually WORTH a dime! Well, that’s the Republic of Texas! Used to be the United States, but not any more. Wall Street took care of that. And we will take care of Wall Street!
