TEXAS ISSUES: SOVEREIGNTY
OR SECESSION
TNM to Perry: 'Take
up this banner now!'
By Dave Mundy Editor
AUSTIN�Texas Nationalist Movement President Daniel Miller
on Saturday challenged Gov. Rick Perry to prove that his rhetoric is �more
than just pillow talk� by picking up the banner of state sovereignty during
the Sovereignty or Secession rally at the State Capitol.
A crowd of Texas Nationalist Movement and other groups
estimated by organizers to be in the vicinity of 1,500-2,000 people gathered
on the south side of the Capitol Saturday to demand that Perry and state
legislators either stand up for state sovereignty by nullifying federal
legislation and regulation which intrudes on states� rights, or start the
process of secession.
Miller called on his group�s members to embark on a �national
day of action� on Sept. 2, flooding Perry�s office with phone calls demanding
he call a Special Session of the Legislature to take up the sovereignty
issue, as has been done in Tennessee, Montana and other states.
Perry generated a mass of media attention with a public
statement that Texas has a right to secede following a Tea Party at the
Capitol back on April 15. Many of his political opponents claim the Governor�s
statement was merely political posturing
�I challenge (Perry) to show us that that was not just
pillow talk,� Miller told Saturday�s rally. �I want you to show us that
you�re listening now.�
Welcome to
the national newspaper of Texas, the voice of the Texas Nationalist Movement.
The federal
government of the United States has run amok, and is going bankrupt both
fiscally and morally. We are Texans who believe that Texas would be better
off on its own. We've tried Washington's solutions, and they don't work.
Texas won
its independence from Mexico in 1836 on its own, and ruled itself for nearly
a decade. The United States has broken its contract with Texas, and Texas
wants a divorce.
Politics: Medina
Says She's the True 'Conservative' Debra
Medina says she offers Republican voters
a "true conservative" choice in the governor's race, and an end to the
state property tax.
Poltiics: Garza
Wants to Help Set the Agenda Richard
Garza-Ray says he wants to reach Texas
voters with the message that independence is feasible, and to help set
the agenda for that goal.
The Race is 'ON' U.S.
Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison has officially
thrown her hat into the race for Governor, becoming the fourth Republican
and sixth candidate overall in the campaign for the seat of incumbent Rick
Perry.
Texas Issues:
Unsafe Vehicles The
federal General Accounting Office says
that many of the companies operating unsafe buses and trucks evade regulations
and continue to operate their death-traps even after they've been ordered
to shut down simply by changing their names.
Texas Issues:
Martial Law? The
military's Northern Command has asked Congress
to set aside the Posse Comitatus Act of 1873 to enable the deployment of
troops -- possibly even foreign troops -- in American communities during
ill-defined "emergencies."
Texas Economy:
Wind Energy Texas
continues to lead the nation in both
the production of energy from wind-pwoered sources and in the installation
of new wind-powered generating facilities.
Op/Ed: We're
Here to Tell the Truth The
Texas National Press resumes publication
this month with one goal in mind: to tell the truth, and to dispel all
the misconceptions about our movement.
Sports: Cowboys
Preview The
worst distractions from 2008 are gone,
and Cowboys coach Wade Phillips is planning to have his team launch the
2009 season without a sense of "entitelement."
Sports: Texans
Preview The
Houston Texans enter the 2009 campaign
in a position they're not used to: favored to win the division. They're
not celebrating just yet, however.
