"Unique and Independent"
Michael Tomasky and Andy Duckworth examine how Texas could truly achieve Governor Perry's claimed uniqueness and independence, for example, by turning away federal funds for highway maintainence. Or guaranteed and subsidized loans for rail freight line maintainence. Or, they could actually secede. Money quote: "They'd be a failed state in about four years." Video here.

That's a good point. The hypocrisy is stunning. I'm sure you've seen those maps of tax dollar distribution where all these "independent" red states are sucking in more federal tax dollars than they're paying out.
So tired of their whining...
