thinks is a hypocritical one by the Obama administration as Texas has requested the same sort of federal aid but has been denied it

Ya' but, Texas is a red state . . . the White House has a resident who is a racist and very anti-American. Certainly should be expected from Obambi. Pathetic.

“386 square miles pales with the 2.5 million acres “

Ten to one, I think.

Thanks Obama!

More potential future US voters in Mexico than Texas?

This is simply because more Mexicans than Texans voted for the rectum-in-chief.

The aid would have been nice, but hell, why beg...

Don’t need it, don’t want it as far as I am concerned...We’ll take care of our own...

Sure, would have been nice to get a Shuttle (but we were politically snubbed), sure, we’d like some political leeway, as do the other border states need as well, to COMBAT the illegal trafficking and drugs into this state and into this country...

But what might have been really neat...If we didn’t get anything else from D.C., we should have gotten that carcass of OBL/UBL and give it a proper sendoff...But, alas, no joy on that either...

So Texas will still go as red as it can in the next election, we’ll do our part...I wonder if anyone else will???

He is more concerned about the well being of another country than one of our own states.

I love Mexico and I think it’s great to help other countries. But kicking one of our own states in the teeth is inexcusable.

The Annointed One hates Texas because Texas has opposed him on a few things. Unfortunately, Texas does seem to have a lefty population that supports Bambi (actually, it has a surprisingly large Muslim population), so its opposition isn’t as united as it could be.

It’s political. Obama’s all about humiliation.

There is no excuse for our door-mat legislature not to respond in kind to BO in some meaningful way. Shutting down the natural gas and oil pipelines to the east coast would be one option. Texas could sell those resources on the open market more profitably. We should not stand for this treatment.

The Obama gravy would not pass local health department standards. With the government carrot and stick, the government risks loosing the carrot but more important it still can use the stick for discipline.
