It's called the Texas National Guard and the US Army.

"It's called the Texas National Guard and the US Army."

I think the governor should expand the role of the Texas State Guard. That way we can avoid dealing with the federal government. Keep it local!!! (Texas State Guard cannot be federalized by law.)

This is a comment that appears here often. Has no one noticed that the Army and the National Guard are pretty busy at the moment in Iraq and Afghanistan and that we have a few fires smoldering in the wings which may need them also, like N. Korea, Iran, Lebanon, and Syria? The members of the Guard also have fulltime civilian jobs to return to once their tours are over.

The Clinton administration gutted our military, cutting the manpower in half, and all I hear here is Bush is not doing anything, down with Bush.

Some of you need to think about solutions, solutions that will work and not things that just sound good like send in the Guard.
