Excellent. Aggies and Longhorns can certainly stand side-by-side on THIS one! FYI ... here's the website promoting Pelosi's Houston speaking engagement tonight: http://www.progressiveforumhouston.org/index.htm

Glenn Beck - The 912 Project : Stand Up & Lead

Fri, 12 Jun 2009 14:13:25 +0000

Pelosi Protest in HOUSTON (reminder for TX Gulf Coast patriots) .... ---------------------- http://houstontps.org/ Our Pelosi Protest will be starting at 6:30, Friday June 12th, in front of the Wortham center by Jones Plaza where we had our Tax Day event. She will be starting her event at 7:30. The Theme of the Protest is “Pelocchio“. A Document showing where to find parking downtown can be downloaded here. Be prepared to pay for parking. This is an entirely peaceful protest. The best way to show displeasure is simply showing up in sheer numbers and having a resulting headline in the news. Please help keep a good reputation for Houston Activism. Now for the important serious stuff. Signs cannot be on sticks and poles. This is a city rule, as they are something that could be used as a weapon. Please keep signs tasteful, no threats, racism… etc… be smart and clever! Please no sound amplification. We cannot block traffic or pedestrians. Absolutely do not directly engage anyone. No harrassment, accosting, threats, or throwing anything at anyone. Don’t make anyone into a martyr. We must be fluid and may need to move around. Organizers and Volunteers from ours and other local Tea Party organizations will be trying to help direct and keep order in the crowd. Please help publicize! Forward this e-mail to your friends, invite people to our facebook event, call radio stations!

More than anything, I'm taken aback by the fact that so many people were audacious enough to ask you for whom you were voting. Are you kidding me? My answer would've been: I prefer not to discuss my personal voting decisions with you. That being said: Certainly ethnicity was an issue for some people (read this salient diary from RedState.com: http://www.redstate.com/blackandright/2009/03/10/... ); but I refuse to believe the race card was an issue for all. Obama was an extremely liberal candidate with the voting record to back his extremist ideology. There was zero doubt that, black, white, purple, or green, he wasn't going to find favor with a large segment of our populace. In a nutshell: Anyone who accused you of racism, based on your lack of support for Obama, was a misguided, agenda-driven hater to begin with.

Glenn Beck - The 912 Project : Obama considers troop deployment on Mexican border

Attaboy, Wrencher. You, sir, are a patriot. And I thank you for your service to our country. People seem a tad confused, making this a discussion about immigration. And while illegal immigration is admittedly out of control, it's important that folks understand the issue at hand is troops along the US-Mexico border to combat drug-related violence. Gov. Perry has made an "urgent" call for 1,000 boots on the ground, but Obama says he'll "opt for a different approach," not wanting any kind of "militarization" on the border. Newsflash: This violence isn't going to stop. And if you wait months to take definitive action (as you've indicated), things are going to become much uglier and bloodier than they already are. So, Wrencher, despite Obama's shiny-happy dream world, I think you can bank on the NG being called up. It's all but inevitable.

While I don't at all disagree with your stance on illegal immigration, that's a different horse in a different race. The current situation deals with putting boots on the ground to deal with potential violence spilling out of Mexico, from drug lords. Former Texas Governor, George W. Bush, is a non sequitur.

In November the The United States Joint Forces Command (USJFC) issued a report stating, among other things" "Any descent by Mexico into chaos would demand an American response based on the serious implications for homeland security alone." We're not yet to the point where the drug lords have flagrantly crossed the border; but it's coming. Imminently. And if it's not the job of the federal government to protect its citizens against guerrilla acts of warfare, for the life of me, I cannot itemize one additional purpose for them. If Obama wants Texas to "handle things" on its own, that's fine. We can, and we will. But at that point, not one additional penny needs to leave Texas for Washington, D.C.

The Mexican military? Get out of where?

But here's the thing, Sunny: We are part of a nation. We provide an immense amount of profit, prosperity, and betterment to our nation. When the federal government ceases to protect ... that's a damn slippery slope. The Texas Declaration of Independence (1836) said it best: “When a government has ceased to protect the lives, liberty, and property of the people…and…becomes an instrument in the hands of evil rulers for their oppression….it is a…sacred obligation to their posterity to abolish such government, and create another in its stead.”

Just tonight ... 7 more bodies found along the El Paso/Juarez border region. http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM... I'm not privy to our President's decision-making process, but Gov. Perry is pissed off; and as a citizen of The Great State of Texas, I understand his ire. I wonder: If bodies were piling up along the US/Canadian border as they are along the US/Mexican border, would the northern states be dismissed in this manner? I'm not saying we need his help; but the borderline cavalier attitude disturbs me. I don't think people understand the extent of the situation; but there's a storm brewing down here (see: Chuck Norris: "I may run for President of Texas" http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.vi... )--and it's not a few fringe radicals stirring the pot. The buzz is, undoubtedly, getting louder. IRONICALLY ... the Texas Declaration of Independence (March 2, 1836) contains some eerily relevant sentiments to our current situation: http://texashistory.unt.edu/widgets/pager.php?obj...

A quick suggestion to the 9-12project designers: It is very difficult to track and follow comments/threads, based o the current logistical format. I realize the website launched less than 24 hours ago (and I hope my suggestion is taken in the positive manner in which it is intended!); but the initiation of a "message board format," whereby comments are grouped by topics, would be much more user-friendly. Keep up the great job. You're all to be commended for your patriotism.

There is most definitely a grass-roots feeling here in Texas regarding specific issues we face that many of our "leaders" in DC will never begin to understand. To many proud Texans, the idea of returning to a sovereign nation/Texas sounds pretty appealing. Texas' economy ranks number 13 in the world; and if Obama doesn't want to help, we'll take care of ourselves. Between the Texas Rangers, TX Nat'l Guard, and countless citizens/soldiers committed to looking after our families and our neighbors, the "we're better off" ideology is gaining serious momentum ....

LeonardoR: I'm finishing a PhD in education and struggle with the same "ideological persecution" from the academics with whom I work that you referenced in your profession. They'll know who we are by our actions.
