Texas to withdraw from the United States of America
Is this BS or what?
https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/pet...nment/BmdWCP8B Peacefully grant the State of Texas to withdraw from the United States of America and create its own NEW government. The US continues to suffer economic difficulties stemming from the federal government's neglect to reform domestic and foreign spending. The citizens of the US suffer from blatant abuses of their rights such as the NDAA, the TSA, etc. Given that the state of Texas maintains a balanced budget and is the 15th largest economy in the world, it is practically feasible for Texas to withdraw from the union, and to do so would protect it's citizens' standard of living and re-secure their rights and liberties in accordance with the original ideas and beliefs of our founding fathers which are no longer being reflected by the federal government. |

I voted on one of those WH petition drives on something else once. It was a non-partisan, not really a political issue too. They are usually not taken up even with the needed signatures. I don't know why the Obama administration even bothers with it. Besides, if they wanted to secede, it's not like a petition is even needed. Do they think their request would actually be granted? Central govts never like to give up power or control.

Is there some law that says the administration must formally respond to any petition some nutjob can dream up?
