"Didn't he do the same in TX?"

The very same pattern. Now true, while governor, we didn't invade anyone. You'd think with an army, navy and an air force, backed with the National Guard, he could have pulled it off, but...


During his second term as governor, wasn't there some talk of invading Colorado and renaming the ski resorts after famous Texans? I thought he was pushing on this invasion for a while but with the legislature meeting only every two years, it was tough to get everyone in sync. Just what I heard.

Ok, the navy consists of historical ships for the most part. And the Confederate Air Force(oops, apparently they changed their name to 'Commemorative') is mainly for show, but when have facts been a deterrent?

Yeah, and what does it matter when you're invading a state like New Mexico that has no army, air force or navy? Even an air force just for show can do a lot of damage! ;~)
