Just tossing out a few names...

...know what I mean, Vern?


Meanwhile, down in the Republic of Texas...

Besides the National Guardsmen being deployed to border duty on orders of Governor Perry, there are now at least 10 Texas militia units also deployed, from Brownsville to El Paso...

,,,DHS has ordered all of its subs to not cooperate in any way with any of the Texas militas, but BPers seem to be especially not interested in obeying.

Viva la libertad!
 
I don't know if this would be called a mutiny. Members of the armed forces are sworn to defend and uphold the Constitution and obey lawful orders but I am not at all sure aiding and abetting illegal activity would be covered. :confused:
 
I always laugh when leftists point to the awesome might that is the over-funded military as the absolute backstop to any power grab they could come up with.

When and if it ever came down to it, which side to they think the southern rednecks that are over represented in the military (that leftists loathe) would come down on?

First, you're not that over represented, second I think they'll side with the people who are paying the bills which ain't the southern rednecks. Third when has the left ever expected the military to be the backstop for a power grab? Not that they've come up with a powergrab in any of our life times but we've been trying to cut the military down to size for decades. Not because we're afraid of it but because it's a horrendous drain on resources.
 
I can tell you which way their vote will turn once they get back home and start looking for jobs and can't find any, and watch Republican representatives do everything in their power to deny them unemployment extensions, food stamps, or paid medical care.

This will be true once the military's complexion changes from straight white males to knocked up rainbow freaks and the basic military unit goes from platoon to cluster fuck, the company changes to a soiree, and the battalion becomes a hood.

Or it's already the case that they're coming home and finding that the Democrats are the only ones who give two shits about their well-being when they aren't on the battlefield anymore, based purely on an objective reading of the Congressional vote record.

Wait, are we supposed to be worried that the Texas National Guard is going to mutiny?

Oh hell, let 'em. They'll all go home as soon as they run out of beer and potato salad.
 
The national guard can't arrest anyone.
Militias can't arrest anyone.
 

You're right, whenever unemployment benefits need extending, Republicans are always there.

You're right, whenever the average citizen or veteran needs medical care, Republicans rush to provide funding.

You're right, whenever funding for subsidies for housing for the poor comes up, Republicans are the first to support the bill.

You're right, whenever funding for mental health or drug rehab programs come up, Republicans are always there.

Food stamps, etc.

None of those issues matter to veterans returning from war and needing assistance. Nope, all veterans returning home care about are whether gays can get married or whether women should be able to get abortions.

Yup, Republicans always worried about issues that impact our veterans. Yessir.
 
To everything spend, spend spend,
There is a victim spend spend spend
And to every purpose under heaven...


What class does not solicit the favors of the state? It would seem as if the principle of life resided in it. Aside from the innumerable horde of its own agents, agriculture, manufacturing, commerce, the arts, the theatre, the colonies, and the shipping industry expect everything from it. They want it to clear and irrigate land, to colonize, to teach, and even to amuse. Each begs a bounty, a subsidy, an incentive, and especially the gratuitous gift of certain services, such as education and credit. And why not ask the state for the gratuitous gift of all services? Why not require the state to provide all the citizens with food, drink, clothing, and shelter free of charge?
...
... under the name of the state the citizens taken collectively are considered as a real being, having its own life, its own wealth, independently of the lives and the wealth of the citizens themselves; and then each addresses this fictitious being, some to obtain from it education, others employment, others credit, others food, etc., etc. Now the state can give nothing to the citizens that it has not first taken from them.

No one seriously believes Democrats give a damn about the troops. Too funny.

STFU with the BS
 
How many troops do those retired generals command?

Generals Amos and Kelly have the active troop command under control...

...the retireds are working the civilian crowd now.

Guess the proper two officers from the list in the OP...

...and then match them to "civilian councils" for more enlightenment.
 
The national guard can't arrest anyone.
Militias can't arrest anyone.

And that would make them different from the Border Patrol and ICE under President Obama's current dictates how?

But I digress...

...the National Guard called to duty by the federal government via the President, indeed does not have arrest powers concerning federal law.

But the Texas National Guard has been called to duty by the Governor of Texas, and he has the full authority of not only the Constitution for the United States of America but Texas' own Constitution to empower them to make arrests per state law. The TNG are not deployed to work with the federal government this time...

...their mission is to assist the Texas Department of Public Safety, whose top dogs are the Texas Rangers and Troopers of the State Police. It is totally up to Governor Rick Perry whether or not he authorizes the Texas National Guard arrest powers.

The milita mission, on the other hand, isn't to arrest anyone...

...they're more like an armed, moving wall whose simple intent is to practically stop inflow.

Nice to see you finally get a break from bed pan duty, putz.
 
I'm not concerned about this in any way -- I have more respect for the professionalism of the armed forces than some of the "patriots" here -- but if it did, I assume it would go as well as Texas's last stab at treason.

There is really no cause for concern at all...

...it's just the Commander-in-Chief of Texas taking care of his state's business because the dereliction of duty by the Commander-in-Chief of the USSA has created such a "humanitarian" issue in the Lone Star State.

After all, I do not believe any Americans wish to see the great Republic of Texas turn into anything akin to Obama's similar examples of his dereliction like what's happening today in Libya, Syria, Iraq, etc...

...except, of course, "patriots" like you.

No, everything will be just fine down here in Tejas....

...unless Obama's ego makes the mistake of picking a federal vs. state fight with Perry. Then the President's Party will be in a whole h3ll of a lot of hurt heading into this November and especially into November two years ahead.

Bring it, hombre.
