				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: large;"><strong><span style="color: #800000;">London terror attack leaves 1 dead near barracks</span></strong></span></p>
<blockquote><p><strong><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-21003" alt="British Flag" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/British-Flag-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" />LONDON (AP)</strong> &#8211; In a brutal daylight attack which raised fears that terrorism had returned to London, two men with butcher knives hacked another man to death near a military barracks Wednesday before police wounded them in a shootout.</p>
<p>In a shocking video broadcast on British TV, one man gestured with bloodied hands, waving a butcher knife in the air and shouting political statements against the British government as pedestrians milled about a body lying motionless on the street. Bloodstains coated the street. <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://apnews.myway.com//article/20130522/DA6EJERO0.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">SOURCE</span></a></span></strong></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I have heard many lament the death of this British soldier, and I am saddened that it happened, that he was butchered by Islamic ANIMALS as he walked down a British street, very close to his barracks.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Of course the soldier was unarmed, as are most all British citizens, but according to some reports it took approximately 20 minutes for an ARMED Police unit to arrive at the scene.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Yes, I said an ARMED Police unit; you see, many British Police are apparently unarmed as well.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Can you imagine this happening on a street here in Texas? Before you answer that remember the Fort Hood shooter, Nidal Hasan? NOW can you imagine this happening on a street here in Texas?</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Maybe not, let me explain; Hasan was able to carry out his evil Jihad because American troops are not armed, no one is allowed to carry a firearm on a U.S. military base other than military police or civilian police on post for whatever reason.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">A civilian Police Officer, former Fort Hood police sergeant Kimberly Munley was the first officer on the scene and she engaged Hasan in gunfire. That was on Fort Hood, not on your average street in a Texas city.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Unlike the Brits, and a few areas of this United States, we here in Texas have NOT been disarmed and we’re not going to be disarmed. If Hasan had tried his Jihad on a Texas street as opposed to the confines of Fort Hood, Hasan would have most likely met a hail of return fire from Texas Patriots, hopefully causing this Muslim ANIMAL to die, right then and there, thus saving our nation gobs of money.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Some reading this may say, ‘this could never happen anywhere in America, even in gun free zones because we have armed police and they are going to protect us…’</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Wrong!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Yes, we DO have armed police, but as the saying goes, when seconds count the police are only minutes away. I know, that sounds crass but it is one of those TRUTHS that I am so well known for.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">In a disarmed society, one where LEGAL citizens are deprived of their gun right, say in a place like New York or New Jersey for instance, something similar has already happened. This is from back in February of 2013.</span> <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://www.wnd.com/2013/02/muslim-accused-of-beheading-2-christians-in-u-s/" target="&quot;_blockquote"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Muslim accused of beheading 2 Christians in U.S.</span></a></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span id="more-21002"></span>I don’t know why the story didn’t get reported far and wide, local media in New Jersey covered it, maybe because it was Egyptian on Egyptian, who knows, but it has happened and the only national *news* source I saw cover it, other than a few bloggers, was a site called WorldNetDaily.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Here is the video from New Jersey news source. At least they had the courage to cover it, but the Mainstream Media was nowhere to be found, and I am going to make a silly guess here and say that the MSM didn’t cover the story because it was not politically correct and they didn’t want to anger Islamic groups and be accused of Islamophobia and racism.</span></p>
<p><center><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/M8Kz78IaGE4" height="315" width="560" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></center><span style="color: #000080;">Political correctness is something I do NOT suffer from and I have no use for people that base their every thought and action on being politically correct. That is why I won’t enter the political arena here in Rowlett. I personally don’t give a damn WHO gets offended if I am speaking the truth, be they Republicans, Democrats, Christians, Jews or Muslims, if the TRUTH hurts, if the TRUTH doesn’t fit into some little PC pocket, I don’t care.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Islam has declared WAR on ALL that are not Muslims. OK, so be it! It’s a near certainty that the government of the United States won’t do anything to stop the Islamification of this nation. We have open borders and ALL are allowed in.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Great Britain is over-run with Muslim hordes and the British people are pretty much defenseless if they are attacked. At least in *most* parts of America we can fight back, and trust me on this; it is going to be up to American Patriots to stand, defend against and repel the Muslim hordes, including defending against the closet Muslim living in the White House.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">And remember this my friends; it&#8217;s NOT Islamophobia if they really are trying to kill you!</span></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: large;"><strong><span style="color: #800000;">IRS official Lerner: &#8216;I did nothing wrong&#8217;</span></strong></span></p>
<blockquote><p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-20994" alt="Lois Lerner" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Lois-Lerner-IRS-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /><strong>WASHINGTON (AP)</strong> &#8211; The Internal Revenue Service official at the center of the storm over the agency&#8217;s targeting of conservative groups told Congress on Wednesday that she had done nothing wrong in the episode, and then invoked her constitutional right to refuse to answer lawmakers&#8217; questions.</p>
<p>In one of the most electric moments since the IRS controversy erupted nearly two weeks ago, Lois Lerner defended herself during a brief appearance before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. The committee is investigating the agency&#8217;s improper targeting of tea party and other conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status, and Lerner oversees the IRS office that processes applications for that status.</p>
<p>&#8220;I have done nothing wrong,&#8221; said a stern-looking Lerner, sitting next to three other witnesses and reading from a written statement. &#8220;I have not broken any laws. I have not violated any IRS rules or regulations and I have not provided false information to this or any other committee.&#8221;</p>
<p>Lerner then said she would invoke her Fifth Amendment right to avoid incriminating herself. Nine minutes after she began speaking, committee Chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif., excused her and Lerner left the hearing room through a rear door, escorted by her lawyer and several other men. <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://apnews.myway.com//article/20130522/DA6EDTCO0.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">SOURCE</span></a></span></strong></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I say this in ALL confidence; Lois Lerner is either the most incredibly STUPID individual in America or she thinks that everyone else is.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I am not a lawyer, I don’t play one on TV and I didn’t stay at a Holiday Inn last night but I have been in Court a few times over the years and I know this, no one says, &#8220;I have not broken any laws. I have not violated any IRS rules or regulations and I have not provided false information to this or any other committee.&#8221; and then immediately invokes the Fifth Amendment unless they really ARE guilty of all the things they just denied and are planning on keeping their mouth shut to save themselves from what could be a jail sentence, a good, long jail sentence.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">There is one other thing that Lois Lerner may have on her mind; immunity.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">If that is the case, and if she were to be granted immunity from prosecution, the Fifth Amendment would go by the wayside and she could indeed sing like a guilty bird.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Maybe that’s why committee Chairman Darrell Issa excused her, perhaps there is a deal in the works, because if that’s not the case, if she can just get up there and declare her innocence, invoke the Fifth Amendment and then walk FREE, a precedent has just been set that will throw the American legal system into a state of utter chaos.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Can you imagine? The Police find a ton of meth in the back of some van that a local tweaker is driving and when said tweaker goes to Court for arraignment he stands there scratching his arms and proclaiming his innocence and then invokes the Fifth.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span id="more-20993"></span>Well … because of the precedence set by allowing Lerner to declare HER innocence and then invoke the Fifth and walk, our local tweaker does the same.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Again, I am NOT a lawyer, but somehow, that scenario just doesn’t seem right.</span></p>
<blockquote><p>The men quickly whisked Lerner into an elevator, where several of the men physically pushed back television camera operators who were trying to film them.</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">The camera guys need to make sure that their finances are in order, the IRS apparently likes to audit those that challenge them or those they consider to be a danger to the regime of their Obamessiah.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">And so the IRS knows, MY finances ARE in order, perfect order, and you guys don’t scare me one little bit.</span></p>
<blockquote><p>Lerner&#8217;s refusal to answer questions was not a surprise. Her attorney, William W. Taylor III, wrote a letter to the committee this week saying she would do so.</p>
<p>Lerner revealed the agency&#8217;s targeting two weeks ago and apologized for the actions.</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Lerner has every right to invoke the Fifth, I believe that by doing so she has painted a huge target on herself because I have NEVER seen or heard anyone invoke the Fifth that wasn’t as guilty as sin.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">By revealing the targeting by the IRS and then apologizing for it is reminiscent of Rep. Joe Wilson and his shouts of “YOU LIE” at Obama as he was giving his State of the Union address and then apologizing for it.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">If you tell the TRUTH, have the courage to stand BY that truth. You NEVER have to apologize for speaking the truth.</span></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: large;"><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Court strikes down Arizona 20-week abortion ban</span></strong></span></p>
<blockquote><p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-20980" alt="Judge Marsha Berzon" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Judge-Marsha-Berzon-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /><strong>SAN FRANCISCO (AP)</strong> &#8211; A federal court Tuesday struck down Arizona&#8217;s ban on abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy absent a medical emergency.</p>
<p>The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said the law violated a woman&#8217;s constitutionally protected right to terminate a pregnancy before a fetus is able to survive outside the womb. &#8220;Viability&#8221; of a fetus is generally considered to start at 24 weeks. Normal pregnancies run about 40 weeks.</p>
<p>Nine other states have enacted similar bans starting at 20 weeks or even earlier. Several of those bans had previously been placed on hold or struck down by other courts.</p>
<p>Judge Marsha Berzon, writing for the unanimous three-judge panel on the San Francisco-based court, said such bans before viability violate a long string of U.S. Supreme Court rulings starting with the seminal Roe v. Wade decision in 1973. <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://apnews.myway.com//article/20130521/DA6DS8PG2.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">SOURCE</span></a></span></strong></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Ladies and Gentlemen, the cretin pictured above is one of the most despicable persons it has been my displeasure to have ever seen. That is a thumbnail of Judge Marsha Berzon, and according to this</span> <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marsha_S._Berzon" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">SOURCE</span></a></span></strong> <span style="color: #000080;">she is widely considered one of Bill Clinton&#8217;s most liberal judicial appointees.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I have a very special and personal message for Judge Marsha S. Berzon;</span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20981" alt="Abortion 5" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Abortion-5.jpg" width="499" height="334" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I had made myself a promise to avoid politics today, and considering the normal avenue my political posting takes, I AM avoiding politics as usual, but when I saw this story and the headline, I knew I had no choice, I had to voice an opinion.</span></p>
<blockquote><p>The judge wrote that &#8220;a woman has a constitutional right to choose to terminate her pregnancy before the fetus is viable.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Fetus viability, there is a term that I had never used before today, and upon doing a bit of research I found out what it means in medical terms.</span></p>
<blockquote><p>According to Webster’s Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary of the English Language, viable of a fetus it means having reached such a stage of development as to be capable of living, under normal conditions, outside the uterus.<br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;">(SNIP)</span><br />
At 24 weeks the chance of a normal survivor is about 50%, and after this the odds are in favor of a normal survivor. Considering this data, intensive care should be an optional choice for fetuses at 23 and 24 weeks of gestation and should be offered to every fetus at 25 weeks or more. <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11753511" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">SOURCE</span></a></span></strong></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span id="more-20979"></span>OK, I really DO understand that at less than 20 to 24 weeks of gestation there is a slim chance of survival for that child. I refuse to call it a *fetus*, it is, at least in my opinion, simply an unborn human.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I also understand that there are many who believe that the abortion of an unborn baby at less than 24 weeks gestation is not murder, they believe it is simply *a choice*, and wouldn’t be able to survive outside of the womb.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Here is where TexasFred makes NEW enemies; <em>IT IS A CHILD</em>, it is <em>NOT</em> a <em>CHOICE</em> and if the *mother* had any sense she would realize that she has just murdered a BABY! Abortion stops a beating heart!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">My grandson Carson was born on Aug. 21, 2009. He was at 26.5 weeks of gestation and there were some that didn’t think he was going to make it.</span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20986" alt="Carson 2" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Carson-2.jpg" width="600" height="450" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">We were told that he would be blind, we were told that he would have a hole in his heart and that IF he did live he would have some very difficult times ahead in his life, such as it was going to be.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Well, Carson fooled them all.</span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20988" alt="Cooper and Carson" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Cooper-and-Carson.jpg" width="447" height="600" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Today Carson is almost 4 years old, he is a big, very intelligent, beautiful, happy and healthy boy that will talk your ear off, and he makes sense doing it too! He’s into any and everything he thinks he can be and that <strong>big black dog</strong> is his partner in crime.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I have 3 grown children and 5 grand-kids, ALL of them are precious to our entire family and there is no way that any of us could ever support abortion on demand, abortion just because some irresponsible person doesn’t want to accept the incredible job of being a parent.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I am NOT stupid either, just so the Libtards that DO read here know; I am fully aware that there are instances where the life of the mother is a strong consideration, but I also know this, my daughter, the mother of 2 of my grand-kids, and my daughter-in-law would face whatever was thrown at them in order to bring a child into this world, even if it meant that they had to face death themselves to do so.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">That is what GOOD mothers do.</span></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: large;"><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Medical examiner: 24 dead in Oklahoma twister</span></strong></span></p>
<blockquote><p><strong>MOORE, Okla. (AP)</strong> &#8211; Emergency crews searched the broken remnants of an Oklahoma City suburb Tuesday for survivors of a massive tornado that flattened homes and demolished an elementary school. At least 24 people were killed, including at least seven children, and those numbers were expected to climb.</p>
<p>As the sun rose over the shattered community of Moore, the state medical examiner&#8217;s office cut the estimated death toll by more than half but warned that the number was likely to climb again.</p>
<p>Spokeswoman Amy Elliott said she believes some victims were counted twice in the early chaos of the storm that struck Monday afternoon. Downed communication lines and problems sharing information with officers exacerbated the problem, she said.</p>
<p>&#8220;It was a very eventful night,&#8221; Elliott said. &#8220;I truly expect that they&#8217;ll find more today.&#8221;</p>

<p><span style="color: #000080;">There will be NO POLITICS from The TexasFred Blog today. Even though I live in the great state of Texas, and have for many years, Oklahoma, and the Oklahoma City area were a large part of my youth.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">We lived on the Southwest side of OKC for a number of years and we had friends and business contacts in the Moore, OK area.</span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20973" alt="Pray for Oklahoma" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Pray-for-Oklahoma.jpg" width="454" height="386" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Our hearts were breaking yesterday as we watched the devastation that hit Moore, and the initial reports of the children that were lost tore my heart out.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">The news that the numbers were being revised DOWN was great news, but as the day progresses I am still afraid the numbers will climb. I pray not, but I am not optimistic.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">According to the National Weather Service we are in for a bumpy ride here in the DFW area for at least another day or 2. A tornado watch is in effect as I type this.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Devastation and miracles, grief and elation, the range of emotions that the folks in Moore and those in the Granbury and Cleburne Texas are feeling, is a roller-coaster ride that plays HELL on the mind, but these Okies and Texans are a tough people.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">We will survive, we will help one another and we will come back, we WILL rebuild, bigger, better, stronger and with a renewed belief in our faith and fellow man!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span id="more-20972"></span>That is what Americans do!</span></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: large;"><strong><span style="color: #800000;">GOP ponders how to capitalize on Obama&#8217;s woes</span></strong></span></p>
<blockquote><p><span style="color: #333333;"><strong>WASHINGTON (AP)</strong> </span>- The scandals dogging President Barack Obama are a political gift to Republicans, who could use some good luck after recent election losses. It&#8217;s not clear, however, how Republicans can best capitalize on Democrats&#8217; woes, legislatively or politically.</p>
<p>Last November&#8217;s election dynamics complicate the picture on both fronts. Republican leaders are urging a bit of restraint in exploiting the White House&#8217;s new weaknesses.</p>
<p>Legislatively one of Obama&#8217;s biggest second-term goals is to overhaul the nation&#8217;s immigration laws, including a new pathway to citizenship for millions of people living here illegally. Many Republicans would like to deny him such a legacy-enhancing prize.</p>
<p>But GOP strategists say their party may need &#8220;immigration reform&#8221; more than Democrats do. <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://apnews.myway.com//article/20130520/DA6CT1K80.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">SOURCE</span></a></span></strong></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Here is ALL the GOP needs to defeat Barack Hussein Obama and to remove him and his anti-American regime from office:</span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20964" alt="No Role for Obama" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/No-Role-for-Obama.jpg" width="526" height="350" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">The GOP is pondering how to capitalize on Obama&#8217;s woes? Seriously?</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Let’s see, how about this, blast Obama and his regime with a healthy dose of the truth and reality; that should be first and foremost. TRUTH burns Obama much like the old tale of Holy Water and a Vampire.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span id="more-20963"></span>The best way to exploit the weakness of Obama and his regime is to use everything they do and/or say against them, everything. Leave no stone unturned and don&#8217;t overlook any words or actions that come from Obama or his stooges. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Many Conservative pundits and bloggers have pointed out repeatedly; the GOP has a long-standing propensity for snatching DEFEAT from the jaws of VICTORY, and yes, I do know it’s supposed to be the other way around, but does the GOP know that?</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">If this headline is accurate, if this story is credible,</span> <a href="http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Peace/2012/10/27/U-S-Had-Two-Drones-AC-130-Gunship-and-Targets-Painted-In-Benghazi-But-Obama-Didn-t-Pull-The-Trigger" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">&#8216;Stand Down&#8217;: U.S. Had Two Drones, AC-130 Gunship, and Targets Painted in Benghazi</span></strong></span></a><span style="color: #000080;">, that one story should be ALL the GOP needs to remove the most incompetent and irresponsible President the USA has ever been forced to endure.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Many say that they believe Obama is very competent and that he knows exactly what he is doing, and that it&#8217;s all designed to destroy the American people. I disagree with that.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I believe that Barack Hussein Obama is a willing *tool* of the Communists, Socialists, the followers of Alinsky, Ayers, Chomsky and Soros.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I believe that Barack Hussein Obama wakes up in a NEW WORLD every morning and I also believe that he hits his knees, in secret, and bows his head to the floor on his prayer rug, his Islamic prayer rug.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I also believe that if the GOP doesn&#8217;t use everything that Obama and Company have given them that this nation will not be America when Barack Obama&#8217;s reign of crime and treason is over.</span></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: large;"><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Tornadoes level homes in Okla., 1 dead</span></strong></span></p>
<blockquote><p><strong>SHAWNEE, Okla. (AP)</strong> &#8211; Tornadoes ravaged portions of central Oklahoma on Sunday, reducing portions of a mobile home park to rubble and killing a 79-year-old man whose body was found out in the open.</p>
<p>&#8220;You can see where there&#8217;s absolutely nothing, then there are places where you have mobile home frames on top of each other, debris piled up,&#8221; Pottawatomie County Sheriff Mike Booth said after surviving damage in the Steelman Estates Mobile Home Park. &#8220;It looks like there&#8217;s been heavy equipment in there on a demolition tour.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s pretty bad. It&#8217;s pretty much wiped out,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>The Shawnee tornado was one of several that touched down in the nation&#8217;s midsection Sunday. Twisters, hail and high winds also struck Iowa and Kansas as part of a massive, northeastward-moving storm system that stretched from Texas to Minnesota.</p>
<p>Full Story Here:<br />
<strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://apnews.myway.com//article/20130520/DA6CQR401.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Tornadoes level homes in Okla., 1 dead</span></a></span></strong></p></blockquote>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20955" alt="Edmund Tornado 5-19-13" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Edmund-Tornado-5-19-13.jpg" width="612" height="612" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">There is an old joke about <em><strong>what does a divorce in Oklahoma and a tornado</strong></em> have in common, the *punch line* was, <em><strong>someone is gonna lose a house trailer</strong></em>. Well my friends, this time it is NO joke. A mobile home, of ANY kind, is THE most dangerous place a person can be during a high wind event. In a tornado they can be a death sentence.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Tornadic winds can destroy most ANY structure, be it brick and mortar on a concrete slab, a wooden frame house, steel buildings on a slab, no matter what, tornadoes tear things into tiny pieces, literally ripping them apart with fierce winds and explosive decompression.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">When I was a youngster we lived in Oklahoma City for a while, from about 1961 until my folks retired and went back to Louisiana in 1968. Tornadoes scared my poor Mother more than anything I had ever seen, before or since, and she gave my Father an ultimatum: <em>you either have a tornado shelter built for me and the kids or we’ll be going back to Louisiana as soon as possible</em>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span id="more-20954"></span>She was quite serious too! Of course Louisiana had a few tornadoes but nothing compared to what was seen in Oklahoma.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">This was back in the days of the oil boom in what was called The Anadarko Basin and I have to tell you, my folks were able to afford some really decent housing and we were lucky to have lived in OKC where housing was abundant. Much as today, some folks lived in mobile homes and for some reason it always seemed that Oklahoma tornadoes took dead aim on trailer parks, now called mobile home parks.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I would venture to say that mathematically there is no more of a chance that a mobile home park will be hit and wiped out as there is a subdivision of constructed homes, but it sure seemed like the tornadoes didn&#8217;t know that.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">We had a BIG hit here in Texas 2 nights ago and some big, fancy and supposedly well built homes were totally flattened, that&#8217;s the destructive force of a tornado, and if the National Weather Service is correct, Texas and Oklahoma are NOT done with this current round of tornadoes and storms yet.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">My most sincere sympathies to our neighbors in Oklahoma for their losses on Sunday, but I fear we&#8217;re going to see even more destruction over the next few days.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">And to be honest with you, we&#8217;re well aware of the probabilities, Texas and Oklahoma have long been a part of what is called *Tornado Alley*, but that *alley* seems to be getting a lot bigger lately.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Hang on to your hats friends and neighbors, have a *safe spot* to go to in the event of a tornado, below ground is best but an interior room, especially a bathroom gives you a lot more safety than any other room in the home. Know what to do and how to survive.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Good luck and Godspeed.</span></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: large;"><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Barack Hussein Obama HATES the U.S. Marines</span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">The picture below was taken 2 days ago and I have been too damned angry to make a post about it. Every time I tried I had to stop and just shake my head at the language I was using and the word I was using to describe Barack Hussein Obama.</span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20923" alt="Obama Marines Rain" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Obama-Marines-Rain.jpg" width="640" height="480" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">The United States Marines are a lot of things; brave, loyal, true American Warriors that will give their lives to protect this nation and the American people. U.S. Marines know what HONOR and INTEGRITY are, they know the words, they know the tune, they walk the walk and they live the life.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">They are NOT Barack Hussein Obama&#8217;s waiters, servants, butlers or valets.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Barack Hussein Obama can&#8217;t even SAY <em>United States Marine Corps</em>. The goofy, American hating SON OF A BITCH called it Marine *CORPSE* a while back. Now I have to tell you, for a man that is supposedly as learned as Barack Hussein Obama, that gaff is an INSULT to ALL who have ever worn the title of United States Marine!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">When I 1st saw the picture below I was angered, greatly, until I saw who had posted it and then read the text on the picture.</span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20940" alt="Marines Iwo Umbrella" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Marines-Iwo-Umbrella.jpg" width="646" height="525" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">That is indeed what Barack Hussein Obama, his lard-assed wife and most, if not ALL of his administration feel about the USMC and the American military in general.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span id="more-20939"></span>I am one American that takes Obama to task on nearly everything he does but there is no  way I can top this from GySgt. R. Lee Ermey.</span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-20941" alt="Gunny Blasts Obama" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Gunny-Blasts-Obama-300x225.jpg" width="300" height="225" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Barack Hussein Obama can KISS MY AMERICAN ASS!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">The United States Marines will do their duty and protect this nation, but the USMC is NOT Barack Obama&#8217;s handmaidens.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Barack Hussein Obama: the BIGGEST disgrace in American history.</span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20950" alt="Leader vs Ruler" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Leader-vs-Ruler.jpg" width="600" height="437" /></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: large;"><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Obama scandals lay bare very real dangers of big government</span></strong></span></p>
<blockquote><p>When scandal rocks any administration, its partisan opponents smell blood in the water and move in to inflict as much political damage on the president as possible. <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2013/05/17/obama-scandals-reveal-dangers-big-government/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">SOURCE</span></a></span></strong></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Well my friends, there is a good reason that we, Conservatives, seek to inflict as much political damage on the president as possible; he deserves it!<br />
</span><br />
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20926" alt="Responsible for everything" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Responsible-for-everything.jpg" width="488" height="376" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">America is reaping what it has sown by electing a Chicago community organizer, a thug, a wannabe thug actually, one that has no love of America in his heart, to the highest office in the land!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">The saddest part of that is? The FACT that Obama gave us a fantastic view of the failure that he is during his first term in office, and some in America were so stupid, so in love with Obama that they gave him another 4 years to destroy America and to attack those that stand in direct opposition to him and his VILE regime.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">&#8216;I don’t know&#8217;, &#8216;I can’t remember&#8217;, &#8216;I wasn’t responsible&#8217;, &#8216;I didn’t do that&#8217;, &#8216;I didn’t have any idea that this was going on&#8217;, &#8216;I have no recollection of that&#8217;; THOSE are the answers that Congress is getting from Obama’s administration, the people that run this nation!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">That is totally unacceptable.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span id="more-20925"></span>The ballooning Obama scandals – IRS, HHS, DOJ, EPA – are not really about character or competence, but the danger of big government itself.</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I have to disagree with that line; this IS about character, and Obama has NO character and NO dignity, NONE! The man is a miserable Socialist, a narcissist, in all probability a Muslim and he is totally incompetent at everything he does other than his efforts to bring America down!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">The author of the original piece, Sen. Mike Lee, mentions the Obama scandals – IRS, HHS, DOJ, but he left out the Fast and Furious gun running scandal and apparently didn’t see his way to mention Benghazi specifically by name.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I am not denigrating Sen. Lee but he needs to be thorough in his writings, and yes, I know, there ARE more *scandals* involved, but those listed are the most serious and in my opinion, the most heinous.</span></p>
<blockquote><p>After we win this election, it’s our turn. Payback time. Everyone not with us is against us and they better be ready because we don’t forget. The ones who helped us will be rewarded, the ones who opposed us will get what they deserve. There is going to be hell to pay.</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Those are supposedly the words of Valarie Jarrett, a Senior Advisor to Barack Obama.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">First and foremost, the Democrats claim that Jarrett never said those words. Maybe she did, maybe she didn’t, but given the actions of the Obama regime since the election I have to wonder if those words are not only true but being used as the current mantra and guide for the governance exhibited by Obama and Company.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Valerie Jarrett is a Chicago lawyer, and that explains a lot. Obama was a Chicago lawyer, as was his wife and several others in the Obama regime.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">The *leadership* of the Obama regime is pathetic at best, and if some of the current scandals are true and can be proven, the so-called leadership of the Obama regime is criminal as well.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">The story above, from Sen. Lee almost seems defensive of Obama as he points out Obama’s political guru David Axelrod saying, “Part of being president is there’s so much beneath you that you can’t know because the government is so vast.”</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Sen. Lee, let me be blunt; being Commander in Chief means that ALL responsibility for this nation, its actions and that of YOUR administration fall into YOUR lap. Leadership has vast responsibility and if Obama can’t, or won’t accept responsibility for his actions and those of his underlings, then Barack Hussein Obama needs to be removed from his position of President of the United States.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">The buck stops here. ~Harry Truman~</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Sadly, Obama would use that buck to go play another round of golf. Nero fiddled as Rome burned, Obama hits the links.</span></p>

<blockquote><p>A massive cleanup and recovery effort got under way this morning in Granbury, where at least six people were killed and dozens injured by three tornadoes, at least one of which was likely an EF-4 with sustained winds up to 200 mph.</p>
<p>&#8220;Doesn&#8217;t get much worse than that,&#8221; said Hood County Sheriff Roger Deeds, who helped escort a tour of the hard-hit Rancho Brazos subdivision.</p>
<p>Deeds said Thursday morning that all of the dead were adults. Another 37 people were injured, with about 100 homes flattened, damaged or destroyed. Separate tornadoes and strong winds near Ennis and Cleburne destroyed homes, but no one died.</p>
<p>Officials in Granbury fear the number of dead could rise as seven people remain missing as search-and-rescue efforts turned to search and recovery about 10 a.m. <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://www.dallasnews.com/news/20130515-where-do-you-hide-cleanup-begins-after-tornadoes-leveled-homes-killed-6.ece" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">SOURCE</span></a></span></strong></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Today politics is the furthest thing on my mind. Texans are hurting, 6 are dead and right now I don’t give a damn about Obama or any of it. You guys can fight Obama for a day or 2 without me.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Priorities; I have mine in order, well, in an order that matters most to me.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Once in a while even I have to take a break from politics and take care of more immediate and important business. The destruction that we suffered in the DFW area last night is at the top of my list for now.</span></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: large;"><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Justice to investigate IRS targeting of tea party</span></strong></span></p>
<blockquote><p><strong><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-18792" alt="Sad Obama 150" src="http://www.texasfred.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Sad-Obama-150.jpg" width="150" height="150" />WASHINGTON (AP)</strong> &#8211; The Justice Department is investigating the Internal Revenue Service for targeting tea party groups for extra scrutiny when they applied for tax exempt status, Attorney General Eric Holder said Tuesday.</p>
<p>Holder said the FBI will investigate to see if any laws were broken. He said he ordered the criminal investigation Friday &#8211; the day the IRS publicly acknowledged that it had singled out conservative groups. <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://apnews.myway.com//article/20130514/DA69A8BG1.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">SOURCE</span></a></span></strong></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">I don’t usually start a post off by saying this and I don’t mean to offend my readers, but; this is the biggest crock of BULLSHIT to come out of the Obama regime yet &#8230; kinda like asking the FOX to look into who&#8217;s been raiding the hen house.</span></p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Those (actions) were, I think, as everyone can agree, if not criminal, they were certainly outrageous and unacceptable,&#8221; Holder said. &#8220;But we are examining the facts to see if there were criminal violations.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">And just like in the Fast and Furious debacle, Eric Holder is *totally innocent*, his DOJ acted without his full knowledge and he is a pure as the driven snow.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Didn’t the DOJ lead the investigation into Fast and Furious? Again; the fox looks into the incident in the hen house. I can’t think of a better analogy.</span></p>
<blockquote><p>Numerous congressional committees already are investigating the IRS for singling out tea party and other conservative groups during the 2010 congressional elections and the 2012 presidential election. But Holder&#8217;s announcement takes the matter to another level, if investigators are able to prove that laws were broken.</p>
<p>Holder said he wasn&#8217;t sure which laws may have been broken.</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">So far, I am way less than impressed by ANY Congressional investigation of late. The Congress has a long ways to go to mend the fences that they themselves have knocked down by their own digressions, inaction and scandals.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">If investigators are able to prove that laws were broken? Seriously?</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">If investigators can’t prove that laws were broken in all of these scandals it will be because the investigators are far less than competent and are in the tank for Obama, as well as being blind as bats.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">For crying out loud, Ray Charles could SEE the violations of Obama and Company.</span></p>
<blockquote><p>Meanwhile, documents obtained by The Associated Press suggest the targeting of conservative groups could be more widespread than the IRS has acknowledged. The agency has said it was limited to low-level workers in a Cincinnati office.</p></blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Somehow I just can’t help but think there are even MORE hits to came and that those hits are going to be even more powerful than what we’ve seen to date.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">This may be a story worth watching:</span> <a href="http://twitchy.com/2013/05/14/drudge-editor-joseph-curl-cia-source-says-still-one-more-shoe-to-drop-for-obama-admin/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Joseph Curl: ‘CIA source says still one more shoe to drop’ for Obama admin</span></a><span style="color: #000080;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Obama and his minions have hung the CIA out to dry. They allowed CIA Officers to DIE in Benghazi, Obama and Company watched it happen, and the CIA is not very happy with Obama and his bunch of ne’er do wells right about now, and for what it’s worth, and to those that may not be aware; the CIA is NOT the organization that you want to piss off, I don’t care WHO you are.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span id="more-20900"></span>Here is the fact of the matter; Barack Hussein Obama and his regime are in trouble, they are between that proverbial *rock and a hard place* and that is NOT the position you want a RAT like Obama to be.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Obama KNOWS that he is in trouble and that makes him even more dangerous!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">Look for an *event* that will deflect all, or nearly all attention away from the current maladies Obama is suffering. Look for an *event* to take place on American soil that is so severe, so heinous that it would give Obama a legitimate reason to enact Martial Law and put America under direct rule from the Oval Office.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">What might that event be? I can only guess, but I will say this, the Obama regime is so evil, so corrupt and so twisted that they make the administration of Richard Nixon look like a bunch of choir boys!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">It’s about to get REAL America, dangerously REAL, and when it does I am of the opinion that the 1st move the Obama regime and Holder’s DOJ/ATF will make will be to make ALL firearms in the hands of civilians a FEDERAL crime and will use an Executive Order to justify the confiscation of those firearms.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;">THAT my friends is where it will begin. Barack Obama IS that dangerous, and that pompous. His arrogance is writing checks his ass can’t cash and now is the time to hit this narcissistic bastard with the NSF charges!</span></p>
