The Spoof : Texas Secedes from Union – Joins Mexico! funny satire story.
The state of Texas today seceded from the United States and joined with Mexico, a nation it had once fought for independence from at the Alamo. Governor Rick Perry, disgruntled with the economic politics of President Obama and dreaming of the wonderful economic policies employed by his predecessor Bush, a former Texas Governor, carried out his threat to rent the nation by severing its second largest state away.
Pretty scary thought huh? How bout this:
Seeing a great opportunity, Mexican drug cartels immediately raced across Texas taking over farms and converting them to drug growing fields. Texas Rangers were rounded up and shipped south to help fight the entrenched war going on in the ex-border towns. The Mexican government swiftly took control of all oil fields and nationalized them into the monopolistic governmental oil company Pemex. Many Texans tried to flee the ensuing violence and disorder by crossing the border to New Mexico and Arkansas, only to be captured by INS agents and returned.
It’s a spoof of course – no, chicken little. The sky is not falling.
Deep down it’s one of my biggest fears. I really hope the rest of the country will have our back soon. We’re already being invaded. Just look around, walk down the aisle at the grocery store and listen to the foreign sounds. Read the package on your bathroom tissue – only both languages huh.
