#1 Texas will never be the new California because it is filled with Texans that have a certain decency that is missing in California.

#3 The scenic views of the Pacific coast are somewhat lacking in Texas to draw the destructive parasite that environment promotes. While I'm sure Texans will try to defend the 'raw' beauty of some of its landscape, that rawness by its very nature is inhospitable to large infestations of the California family of limousine socialist which you don't find in places much beyond the coast.

And our weather sucks too! This is a no good terrible place for Liberals. You LibTards won't like it here...stay in California.

#5 All I can say is that if the stuff ever really hits the fan I'm heading for the Sabine River (from points east) at light speed.

#6 Most of the Libtards go to Austin, it's like the biological appendix of the state. Mostly useless but seems to draw in infections.

#7 Many Californians have moved to the Austin area. They have driven up housing prices to the point where they are becoming unaffordable to the middle-class.

#8 I prefer driven down housing affordability.

Whereas Houston is the colon.

#10 Did the good guys win the election for mayor of Houston, or did another city continue its liberal decline?

#11 Don't forget the illegal aliens from Mexico. Face it, Texas, you too could go blue. I hope you don't. One thing I've noticed about Californians who move to Texas is that it doesn't take them very long at all to acquire that Texas accent. But I'm not sure that means they're turning conservative.

#12 For many years your deeds to property in Texas had these three words "Protect and Defend" that property against all hardships. YOU (and God). Not 911, not the government. Texas is a different state of mind.
