Does the State Department think Texas IS a foreign country?



Along with this little note:
Secretary Clinton is already the most traveled Secretary of State in a new Administration. The Secretary’s trips have included her inaugural trip to Asia, the Middle East and Europe, Mexico and across the border to Texas, the Hague in the Netherlands, Europe with President Obama, Haiti and the Dominican Republic, the Summit of the Americas in Trinidad and Tobago with President Obama, and to Iraq and Kuwait.
Are the people who put this together this friggin' stupid, or are they telling Texas that they already consider it foreign?

Yes.

Well, our tourism bureau does have the motto, "Texas, it's like a whole other country!"

If this continues I WILL have to emigrate.

Maybe, just to play devil's advocate here, it might have been in reference to returning "across the border from Mexico into Texas" after her useful and productive trip to Mexico to assure them the goodies will continue to flow and we will continue to accept all their unemployed who have the gumption to cross the desert to get here.
Inartful words (yet again) from an administration that prides itself on the eloquent turn of phrase and the clear delineation of nuance and layers of meaning.

On second thought, if things continue as they are, the only principled action will be for Texas to secede.
