Many people in LA think that Texas is the greatest state in the union. Texas is the only state that can leagally suceed from the union. If you do, I'm moving there.

Actually there is a petition to have the land below I-10 from Lafayette to Penscola succeed from the Union and call it the Country of Daiquiri.

i think we could split the oil as well as the crawfish. increase limits on alligators, so we'd stop wasting precious natural resources. our death penalty + your gators + our cowboys + your cajuns = Nation of Badass. Pool our resources together & build a huge 40 ft. seawall/oil barrier and drill baby drill!

yep, we should definitely succeed.

I too am from New Orleans 7th ward to be exact but I was hear prior to Katrina (stationed at Ft Hood TX) and been in Austin since 85. The Saints present was never hear in these parts because after all we’re in Cowgirl country. It was always me an a few Louisianans always watching the Saints game (win/loose/draw) we we’re holding it down. It picked up in 2k’s and grew ever since and now since Katrina our presence is really huge. I was in one of the Fiesta food chain stores in Austin and someone overheard my conversation and with in it I said whodat and the next thing you know several people walked by saying WHODAT as well and right there let me know that the BIGEASY is in the building!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah Louisiana screwed up royally a long time ago and Texas was watching and dug in when the opportunity presented it's self, now Texas is pretty much farming Louisiana for it's resources and Louisiana can't do anything but stand by and watch it happen as it receives whatever crumbs Texas leave's behind, Louisiana has a lot of growing up to do, first the Corporations started leaving, then the factories/industries, then the Brain Drain, Katrina happened and everybody picked up and pulled out, Now Louisiana has an opportunity to start over and do it right it's starting to look up now, Louisiana is now attracting businesses and brains from other states, Bobby Jindal has done somewhat of a good job scouting for companies with leases about to expire or looking for relocation and selling his state's land to them, i just wish he would grind a little more.
