Texas National Guard on ALert
Sodahead ^ | State Sen Dan Patrick

Posted on 02/22/2009 9:31:47 AM PST by djf

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!

If 0 has no intention to do anything for Texas, then why remain a member of the 50 states? The Texas flag has always looked beautiful to me.

This is the first time that an adminstration has failed to do anything on the border since...
the last administration.

Zero is not going to do anything for Texas

Your probably more right then wrong on that, but it won't surprise me if Zero paid the drug cartels a billion or two undercover of course buried in another damn bill to just have the whole mess disappear overnight. < /sarcasm>

......Let’s pray it doesn’t come to this......

Why? it may very well be that the Texas NG needs to be there armed and ready to repel the invasion of Mexicans fleeing the chaos.

Death solves lots of problems

The media have reported this, sort of, but have really played it down. Compare it to the murder of one girl in the Caribbean last year

They ain't blond.

Where on the Texas border is this occurring? I have two sisters in El Paso.

Reality Check:

Yes, Mexico could implode, but this article looks suspect.

“the four Militia Groups that are here in Texas will be put on alert this evening. This has gotten REAL, REALLY FAST! “

There are probably more than 4 malitia groups in Texas, and there are a lot of well armed Non-malitia citizens. But the Governor has nothing to do with them. They are not going to invade Mexico.

But if the violence does spill over the Border, rest assured Texas will deal with it.

Mexico is - and has been for a long time - an enemy nation. It has been using this country as a dumping ground for its surplus population and its perverts, etc.

I wonder if KBH is for border control. If so, she’ll have my vote in this next election against Perry. I can never get straight answers from either.
Always standard canned e-mails that never say what they’ll actually do.

Obama has shown he can’t be trusted with our national safety by allowing Texas to be INVADED.

I cannot describe the hatred I have for this man. I need to pray.

We lost at the Alamo, true.

But we won in the end.

You've got that right!


I want to see Bush's & McAmnesty's face when the wet backs homestead their homes.

You are right. He is insane and his childish grudges showed with the Ice Storm of 2009.

Remember the Alamo? Texas lost that round...

The odds then was about 2400 to 200.

It would be significantly different this time in our favor, in both technology and Texans.
