From The Late Show With David Letterman 4/17/2009 on CBS
-----------------
DAVE: Anybody here from the great state of Texas? Do we have any Texans?

[Applause]

DAVE: This is what I heard on the news. The people of Texas are so upset with the way things are going, that they think that they're going to secede from the United States of America.

[Laughs and applause]

DAVE: They're gonna, they're gonna become their own country. Don't mess with Texas.

[Laughts]

DAVE: So there was an announcement about Texas leaving the United States. Wouldn't that be crazy? All of a sudden Texas is not part of this great land of ours? Take a look, watch...

NARRATOR: Texas is threatening to secede from the union. Let's imagine what America would be like without the contributions of Texans. An America without people such as George W. Bush.

[Laughs]

NARRATOR: Sounds good to us!! A message from the other 49 states.

DAVE: Yeah, you see?

[Loud applause]

DAVE: George W. Bush...entering his 9th year of not being president!

  • Fine by me. They're fucked up people.

  • Not offensive to me... especially when "our" oil reserves are "not" figured into the big picture.

  • @joestephenmcnair Hey pal, it's "seceding". Who's illiterate again?

  • I am an Austinite and I am all for succeeding..... as long as it is Austin, that little oasis of blue in a vast illiterate sea of red, succeeding from Texas.

  • im a texan and i do not find this offensive

  • I'm a texan, and I find this offensive

  • hahaha our governer is such an idiot, we would fail if we tried to leave

  • letterman is a idiot george bush isn't even from texas

  • @NUTCASE71733

    More examples of secular Republics:

    Roman Republic: genocided the Dacians and Gauls, practiced pre-emptive war

    French Republic: thousands guillotined including women and children

    Weimar Republic: 10 million genocided.

    Soviet Republics: 40 million genocided.

    People's Republic of China (Commies): 60 million genocided.

    Republic of China (Not commies): ~500,000 massacred

    Most republics, commie, nazi, or even normal secular ones, commit massacres and genocides.

  • @NUTCASE71733 “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” - John Adams

    Only Thomas Paine is truly not religious, but he is not a founding father. He's the guy who rabble roused us into revolution but he was not a part of the convention or congress. He also had no one visit his funeral and was well despised (went to France and started their Reign of Terror revolution as secular Republics tend to do).
