Found this is in my in box today and thought it was worth sharing here! :wink: :D

Subject: FW: THE COUNTRY of TEXOARKLA


THE COUNTRY of TEXOARKLA

In case things get a little tougher during the next few months, we In LOUISIANA, TEXAS, OKLAHOMA & ARKANSAS have a plan.

Maybe you don't know it, but LOUISIANA, TEXAS, OKLAHOMA & ARKANSAS have a legal right to secede from the Union . (Reference the Texas/Louisiana-American Annexation Treaty of 1848.)

Us TEXOARKLANS love y'all Americans, but we'll probably have to take action since Barack Obama won the election and is now the President of the U.S.A. We'll miss y'all, though.

Here is what can happen:

1. Barack Hussein Obama, after becoming the President of the United States , begins to try and create a socialist country, then TEXAS , LOUISIANA , ARKANSAS and OKLAHOMA announces that they are going to secede from the Union .

2. George W. Bush becomes the President of the Republic of TEXOARKLA . You might think that he doesn't talk too pretty, but we haven't had another terrorist attack and the economy was fine until the effects of Barney Frank and the Democrats lowering the qualifications for home loans came home to roost.

So what does TEXOARKLA have to do to survive as a Republic?

1. NASA is just south of Houston , Texas . We will control the space industry.

2. We refine over 90% of the gasoline in the United States .

3. Defense Industry--we have over 65% of it. The term "Don't mess with TEXAS ," will take on a whole new meaning.

4. Oil - we can supply all the oil that the Republic of TEXOARKLA will need for the next 300 years. What will the other states do? Gee, we don't know. Why not ask Obama?

5. Natural Gas - again, we have all we need and it's too bad about those Northern States. John Kerry and AlGore will just have to figure out a way to keep them warm...

6. Computer Industry - we lead the nation in producing computer chips and communications equipment - small companies like Texas Instruments, Dell Computer, EDS, Raytheon, National Semiconductor, Motorola, Intel, AMD, Nortel, Alcatel, etc. The list goes on and on.

7. Medical Care - We have the research centers for cancer research, the best burn centers and the top trauma units in the world, as well as other large health centers.

8. We have enough colleges to keep educating and making smarter citizens: University of Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University, UL-Lafayette, UL-Monroe, University of Arkansas, LSU, Arkansas State University , Baylor, Rice, TCU, SMU and MANY more.

9. We have an intelligent and energetic work force and it isn't restricted by a bunch of unions. Here in TEXOARKLA, we are a Right-to-Work State and, therefore, it's every man and woman for themselves. We just go out and get the job done.. And if we don't like the way one company operates, we get a job somewhere else.

10. We have essential control of the paper, plastics, and insurance industries, etc.

11. In case of a foreign invasion, we have the TEXOARKLA National Guard, the TEXOARKLA Air National Guard, and several military bases. We don't have an Army, but since everybody down here has at least six guns and a pile of ammo, we can raise an Army in 24 hours if we need one. If the situation really gets bad, we can always call the Department of Public Safety and ask them to send over the Texas Rangers.

12. We are totally self-sufficient in beef, poultry, hogs, and several types of grain, fruit and vegetables and let's not forget seafood from the Gulf. Also, everybody down here knows how to cook them so that they taste good. We don't need any food from somewhere else.

13. FIVE of the ten largest cities in the United States and THIRTY TWO of the 100 largest cities in the United States are located in TEXOARKLA. And TEXOARKLA also has more land than California, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Maryland, Rhode Island and Vermont combined.

14. Trade: FIVE of the ten largest ports in the United States are located in TEXOARKLA.

15. We also manufacture cars down here, but we don't need to. You see, nothing rusts in TEXOARKLA so our vehicles stay beautiful and run well for decades.

This just names a few of the items that will keep the Republic of TEXOARKLA in good shape. There isn't a thing out there that we need and don't have.

Now to the rest of you folks in the United States under President Obama:

Since you won't have the refineries to get gas for your cars, only President Obama will be able to drive around in his big 9 mpg SUV. The rest of the United States will have to walk or ride bikes.

You won't have any TV as the Space Center in Houston will cut off satellite communications.

You won't have any natural gas to heat your homes, but since AlGore has predicted global warming, you will not need the gas as long as you survive the 2000 years it will take to get enough heat from Global Warming.

In other words, the rest of y'all in the USA are screwed!

Signed, The People of TEXOARKLA

P.S. This is not a threatening letter - just a note to give you something to think about! Sleep well tonight 'cause the eyes of TEXOARKLA are on YOU!!

I read something about how our school systems may change some. Kids may have more hours in school, but they are not sure how to do this yet. I think it would be good if teenagers got out of school by age 15 or 16 or around that. I have often thought that, honestly. When I was a teen, you could go half days if you had almost all of your courses finished. But, i'm not sure about the longer hours. Anyways, this is a new thing in the making.

Little Johnny Joke


Little
Johnny is not an Obama
fan

A teacher asked her 6th
grade class how many of
them were obama fans.

Not really
knowing what an obama fan is,
but wanting to be
liked by the teacher, all the
kids raised their
hands except for Little
Johnny.

The teacher asked Little Johnny why he has decided to
be different... again.

Little Johnny
said, "Because I'm
not an obama
fan."

The teacher asked, "Why aren't
you a fan of obama?"
Johnny said, "Because I'm a
Republican."

The teacher asked him
why he's a
Republican. Little Johnny
answered, "Well, my
Mom's a Republican and my
Dad's a Republican, so
I'm a
Republican."

Annoyed by this answer,
the teacher asked, "If
your mom were a moron and
your dad were an idiot, what
would that make
you?"

With a big smile, Little
Johnny replied, "That
would make me an obama fan."

No Nativity Scene in Washington This Year


The
Supreme Court has ruled that there cannot be a Nativity Scene in the United States' capital this Christmas season.
This isn't for any religious reason, they simply have not been able to find Three Wise Men in the Nation's capital. A
search for a virgin continues.

There is, however, no problem finding enough asses to fill the stable.

If George W. Bush had been the first President to need a
teleprompter installed to be able to get through a press conference,
would you have laughed and said this is more
proof of how he inept he is on his own and is really controlled by smarter
men behind the scenes?

If George W. Bush had spent hundreds of
thousands of dollars to take Laura Bush to a play in NYC,
would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had reduced your retirement plan's
holdings of GM stock by 90% and given the unions
a majority stake in GM, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had made a joke at the expense
of the Special Olympics, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had given Gordon Brown a set
of inexpensive and incorrectly formatted DVDs, when
Gordon Brown had given him a thoughtful and historically significant
gift, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had given the Queen of England an
iPod containing videos of his speeches, would you have thought
this embarrassingly narcissistic and tacky?

If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia ,
would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference
to the non-existent "Austrian language," would you have brushed
it off as a minor slip?

If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of
advisers with people who cannot seem to keep current
in their income taxes, would you have approved?

If George W. Bush had been so Spanish
illiterate as to refer to "Cinco de Cuatro"
in front of the Mexican ambassador when it was the 5th of May (Cinco de Mayo), and continued to
flub it when he tried again, would you have winced in embarrassment?

If George W. Bush had mis-spelled the word "advice" would
you have hammered him for it for years like Dan Quayle and potatoe as proof
of what a dunce he is?

If George W. Bush had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to
go plant a single tree on Earth Day, would you have concluded he's
a hypocrite?

If George W. Bush's administration had okayed Air Force One
flying low over millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown
Manhattan causing widespread panic, would you have wondered whether they
actually get what happened on 9-11?

If George W. Bush had failed to send relief aid to flood
victims throughout the Midwest with more people killed or made
homeless than in New Orleans , would you want it made into a major
ongoing political issue with claims of racism and incompetence?

If George W. Bush had created the position of 32 Czars who report
directly to him, bypassing the House and Senate on much of what is happening
in America , would you have approved.

If George W. Bush had ordered the firing of the CEO of a major corporation, even though he had no
constitutional authority to do so, would you have approved?

If George W Bush had proposed to double the national debt,
which had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year,
would you have approved?

If George W Bush had then proposed to double the
debt again within 10 years, would you have approved?

So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that
makes him so brilliant and impressive?
Can't think of anything? Don't worry. He's done
all this in 5 months -- so you'll have three years and seven months to
come up with an answer.
The old days were the old days. And they were great days. But now is now.

(5). Q: What's the difference between Obama's cabinet and a

So some people complain about Fox News and their slogan "Fair and Balanced"

I just received this email:

The Fix


There recently was an article in the St. Petersburg Fl. Times. The Business Section asked readers for ideas on:

"How Would You Fix the Economy?"
I think this guy nailed it!
_____

Dear Mr. President,

Please find below my suggestion for fixing America 's economy. Instead of giving billions of dollars to companies that will squander the money on lavish parties and unearned bonuses, use the following plan. You can call it the "Patriotic Retirement Plan":

There are about 40 million people over 50 in the work force.

Pay them $1 million apiece severance for early retirement with the following stipulations:

1) They MUST retire.

Forty million job openings - Unemployment fixed.

2) They MUST buy a new American CAR.

Forty million cars ordered Auto Industry fixed.

3) They MUST either buy a house or pay off their mortgage

Housing Crisis fixed.

It can't get any easier than that!!

P.S. If more money is needed, have ALL MEMBERS in Congress pay their taxes...

Mr. President, while you're at it, make Congress retire on Social Security and Medicare.

I'll bet both programs would be fixed pronto!

If you think this would work, please forward to everyone you know.

If not, please disregard.
The old days were the old days. And they were great days. But now is now.

Yep ... lots of people DO feel that way. I think young voters need to remind themselves that if it sounds too good to be true it probably is.

It's been over a year in this topic where I said ....well see how this (meaning me) small business owner is doing a year from now. So here it goes. I have cut my work force by 18%, I have cut employee benefits, and last year 2009 was the worst year in business that we have had in 16 years. Having said that 2008 was the most profitable year of business we have ever had (to be fair I will also add that is partially due to the tornado). As for 2010 so far ... well the numbers are down.
