Missouri’s governor on Monday ordered the National Guard to a St. Louis suburb convulsed by protests over the fatal shooting of an unarmed black teen, and he reportedly did so without first telling the White House.

Maybe Jay Nixon has learned, at least temporarily, that the Ferguson Police Department NEEDED to come down heavy on the thugs.

BuzzFeed reports that the Obama administration did not get a “heads up” from Nixon that he was calling in the National Guard.
“Folks didn’t know,” an administration official told BuzzFeed. “The White House did not know they were sending it in.”
He thought the rioters were a mob to be reckoned with. He won’t know what hit him.
The governor is the chief executive of his state. He doesn’t need to “report” to the president. King Putt can stuff it!

Whoa whoa whoa there. Don’t be pulling that “Constitution” nonsense on the Dear Reader.
Perhaps the governor was not in the mood for provocative & irresponsible second guessing from Martha’s Vineyard.
Because Obama would have sent Stinger missiles to the panthers in response!
And SloFlo is absolutely right about the "raciss" screams if he were of the GOP. d:^)
The role of the National Guard will be limited, Mr. Nixon said in a statement. Troops will protect the police command center here, which the authorities said came under a coordinated attack on Sunday night.
“With these additional resources in place,” Mr. Nixon said, “the Missouri State Highway Patrol and local law enforcement will continue to respond appropriately to incidents of lawlessness and violence, and protect the civil rights of all peaceful citizens to make their voices heard.”
Looks like the Guard will only be there to protect the Police.
He should tell Hussein and holder it was an “executive order” and no one else’s opinion matters.
It is “SoFlo”, not “SLO Flo”. ;-)
What is it with this administration and its incessant use of the term “folks”?
Really? Was it just like Benghazi?

If I remember correctly, before there was a “Police Force” formed in the early 1800s, laws were enforced by the local magistrates and the militia.
I’m not going to fight fair anymore! ;^)
Nixon kept quiet so Obama wouldn’t have time to send more Agent Provocateurs, er, community organizers.
Obama gets off on antagonizing people. He loves to agitate, provoke, and goad reactions out of people, whether it’s protesters in Ferguson, the Treyvon Martin crowd, or Vladimir Putin. He’s like a little brat poking a dog with a stick.
And again, let’s not lump all these people together under one race. That’s what the provocateurs are looking for. We have to be smart in our comments, and separate the protesters from the rioters, because the race-baiters are scanning the internet looking for evidence of right-wing “hate” to justify their race war.
