Texas State Senator, Dan Patrick, was on FoxNews this morning at 8:45am. He said he had some “breaking news to share”. Boy was it!!! The Texas State Legislature had been trying very hard to get the Obama Administration to respond to a critical situation on the Texas Border. The Administration had not gotten back with Texas as of last night. So the State of Texas told Washington D.C. basically they could go jump, and “we’ll take care of Texas!”. As of last night… the Texas National Guard has been put on High Alert!!! This is the first time in history! Texas tried, desperately to get Washington’s approval… but when they could not get it… they acted on their own. Which I say…. it’s about damn time!!! I personally applaud the guts it took to defy the Fed’s and act in our best interest! In case you are unaware of what the problems are …. Sen. Dan Patrick spelled it out nicely!
1) 100’s of PRO-DRUG CARTEL Mexicans were blocking the entrance to the United States, yesterday and today, banging cars, shouting and holding signs. 10 people were killed Wed. and 12 more yesterday at the border (5 of which were children!!!) 2) They aren’t sure … but they think the Drug Cartel is paying the demonstrators to do what they’re doing. 3) This will spill over into the States! Mr. Patrick, and the other State officials,. are convinced that road-side bombs and car bombs will make it across the border and WILL NOT allow that to happen!! 4) Mexico is breaking out in Civil War in the western part of the border and they expect it to spread the entire border with no end in sight. 5) The National Guard will be activated as the scenario worsens and is on Alert now and will remain so until (and IF) Washington does something to end the danger on the border (Yeah… like that’s gonna happen!).
FoxNews has yet to put this on their website which absolutely ticks me off!!!! I will post it IF they get the stones to do what’s right!
Let’s pray it doesn’t come to this…. but in reality… Texas could be in a Civil War (actually it would be an international incident) with Mexico very soon if this isn’t quelled. Just so you folks know…. the four Militia Groups that are here in Texas will be put on alert this evening. This has gotten REAL, REALLY FAST!
“March 6, 1836. On that fateful day, Davy Crockett woke up and walked from his bunk on the floor of the Alamo up to the observation post on the west wall. Col. William B. Travis and Jim Bowie were up there already. As the three gazed at the hordes of Mexicans moving steadily towards them, Davy turned to Bowie with a puzzled look on his face and asked, “Jim, are we landscaping today?” “
LOL!! I live in an affluent area in North Texas and this is the funniest thing I have read on this site in awhile, because it is so true!! There are a ton of illegals doing yard work and construction around here. Not as much construction these days.... I must say since 11/04/2008 I have been on the verge of tears at the state of our country. Many people that I know, that are clients, professionals, folks whose taxes WILL go up, etc., are all under Zeros influence....I have to say I am prone to sever friendships over this as I cannot come to terms with someone stupid enough to vote pro-communist. It blows my mind!!!
Life is going to get downright unbearable for liberals when our side starts fighting back by our rules. They're going to wish we'd simply play dirty politics, like they do.

From my last search...
outstanding! 3/10
have a wonderful evening : )
The patriots are the ones gonna be doin’ the round ups. (Pass me another magazine bubba.)
Texas needs to close the borders now. If coward Obama can’t; American blood will be on his hands.
Well, now add a new worry - the drug cartels in Mexico. They've been getting worse for a while now. We've just been looking the other way.

Are you ever not a complete dickhead, HG?
God help us. Do we have another Jimmy Carter President in Obama?
fan fan, I agree. Long live a free Texas.
The fact that they went to Michigan presumably looking for work indicates that they aren't the brightest bulbs on the Christmas Tree!
Do not count on Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano for much help.
Once they went to NM, I think, and once to OK.
Lost the battle, won the war.
Texas needs to close the borders now.
