All 50 States Move To Secede From The Union

LouisianaLess than a week after a New Orleans suburbanite petitioned the White House to allow Louisiana to secede from the United States, petitions from seven states have collected enough signatures to trigger a promised review from the Obama administration.

By 6:00 a.m. EST Wednesday, more than 675,000 digital eSignatures appeared on 69 separate secession petitions covering all 50 states, according to a Daily Caller analysis of requests lodged with the White House’s “We the People” online petition system.

A petition from Vermont, where talk of secession is a regular feature of political life, was the final entry.

Petitions from AlabamaFloridaGeorgiaLouisianaNorth CarolinaTennessee and Texas residents have accrued at least 25,000 signatures, the number the Obama administration says it will reward with a staff review of online proposals.

The Texas petition leads all others by a wide margin. Shortly before 9:00 a.m. EST Wednesday, it had attracted 94,700 signatures. But a spokesperson for Gov. Rick Perry said Tuesday afternoon that he does not support the idea of his state striking out on its own.

“Gov. Perry believes in the greatness of our Union and nothing should be done to change it. But he also shares the frustrations many Americans have with our federal government,” according to a statement from the governor’s office.

A backlash Monday night saw requests filed with the White House to strip citizenship rights from Americans who signed petitions to help states secede.

And in a similar nose-thumbing aimed at Texas’ conservative majority, progressives from the liberal state capital of Austin responded Monday with a petition to secede from their state if Texas as a whole should decide to leave the Union.

Protestors lodged their own White House petition. Secession-minded Texans, they wrote, “are mentally deficient and [we] do not want them representing us. We would like more education in our state to eradicate their disease.”

Houstonian “Kimberly F” — The White House does not provide last names — submitted the petition. She told TheDC in an email that ”[w]e need both sides presented, or we all look like a bunch of fools.”

A group from El Paso, too, wants no part of an independent Texas. “Allow the city of El Paso to secede from the state of Texas,” their petition reads. “El Paso is tired of being a second class city within Texas.”

But smaller petitions like theirs are a political side show of a political side show. One effort, aimed at Missourians, called for a nationwide catered pizza party to celebrate when the Show Me State left the U.S.

States whose active petitions have not yet reached the 25,000 signature threshold include  AlaskaArkansasArizonaCaliforniaColoradoConnecticut,DelawareHawaiiIdahoIllinoisIndianaIowaKansasKentuckyMaineMarylandMassachusettsMichiganMinnesotaMississippiMissouriMontanaNebraskaNevadaNew HampshireNew JerseyNew MexicoNew YorkNorth DakotaOhioOklahomaOregonPennsylvaniaRhode IslandSouth CarolinaSouth DakotaUtahVermontVirginiaWashingtonWest VirginiaWisconsin and Wyoming.

  1. We need secession . We can demand public referendum vote on all issues to derail congress from lobbyists and corruption. we are on track for revolution but congress is filled with doddering old men who are guilty of either not reading history or worse not caring, This country has become unrecognizable to me in the last 40 years as the place I was born. I would prefer to expatriate to a sovereign state created within my own country .

    1. Hi Ruth, yes. It has become unrecognizable at various points along the creep of the agenda into the monstrous evil it always promulgated due a complete and utter lack of love for life and humanity. It has decided to unveil itself in all its NDAA, TSA, “homeland” security, VIPR teams, drones, trampling on all amendments – outright arrogance. Fortunately this misbehavior by all 3 branches is so egregious it wakes even sleeping sheep who realize something’s seriously wrong. Thanks for commenting. Blessings, G

  2. The White House has tried this trick before, with its “Questions to ask the president” gimmick. Overwhelmingly the issues people want to talk about are legalization of marijuana and health care. Just like in the past, the White House will issue its response to these petitions by scoffing at us and ridiculing people as “fringers.” The media will back them up with their usual snotty attitude, the sheeple will baaaa on cue, and that will be the end of it.

  3. Two concerns I have:
    1. This movement is more about protest than actual change. It will go nowhere and will be ridiculed in the lamestream media.
    2. By signing the petition, you may be putting your name on DHS’s radar screen as a potential terrorist. Do so at your own discretion.
