Texas governor sends Rangers to Mexico border

Perry accuses federal government of failing to ‘adequately secure’ zone

Special teams of Texas Rangers will be deployed to the Texas-Mexico border to deal with increasing violence because the federal government has failed to address growing problems there, Gov. Rick Perry said Thursday...

The governor early this year asked Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano for 1,000 National Guard troops and renewed his call last month in a letter to President Barack Obama. The request is bogged down over who will pay for the troops and how they will be deployed...

He said the state would pick up the tab of $110 million, allocated by the Legislature in the past two sessions...

I move from Texas 35+ years ago and y'all let it go like this?? I'm so disappointed.

Chuck Norris will fix this!

Personally, I would rather have JJ McQuade and his hot rod. If he could drive that car out of a hole buried, he can do almost anything.
