In tonight's installment of Countdown's "WTF Moment," Olbermann takes a realistic look at what would happen if Texas actually followed through on Governor Rick Perry's threat to secede if the federal government doesn't leave Texas alone. Well, between skyrocketing taxes, loss of military protection, sports teams crumbling, massive debt burdens, and the coming political crisis in 2020 (when the projected population of Texas will be 45 percent Hispanic and 38 percent Anglo, and the Hispanics win a ballot initiative to have the new republic join Mexico), the picture doesn't look good.

Can we keep Austin, or at least the musicians from Austin, they are a national treasure, the rest is a barren wasteland, good riddance.

btw They already have their own military, the Texas State Troopers are as close the the SS as your gonna get.

This is becoming that scene in the Jerk:
'Oh and I need this..."
I can see Navin Johnson with San Antonio, some musicians and ciao under his arm shuffling out of Texas with his pants around his ankles dragging a growling dog by the leash.
