Protest Against Texas-Israel Day May 8th 2013 At 930AM, In Front Of The State Legislature In Austin Texas!

I recently put up a very interesting article that comes from the Liberty Fight website, at www.libertyfight.com, showing my absolute disgust in the idea that the Texas State Legislature in Austin Texas is going ahead and proclaiming tomorrow, May 8th, 2013, as Texas-Israel Day!  It is indeed a sad day for the proud people of Texas when these traitors in their own government show their true allegiance...
