It helps to be able to speak Spanish - the Bush family has some roots south of the border - and are well versed in the language.

Doesn't President Obama only know English and some obscure Indonesian tongue?

Nice. Better get with the new Republican program! Have you been watching FOX lately?

Everyone's busy trying to figure out how the Republican party can catch the minority vote; be more INCLUSIVE; stop talking about rape; and how to best 'deal with' the tea party.

Nasty comments like that are soon going to be seen as not helpful to The Party.

I don't think the impoverished Mexican underclass is going to take on the heavily armed rural citizens of Texas.
If they try, they would be massacred by "Billy Bob" and "Bubba Ray".

I don't think the Billy Bobs are as tough as they talk. And people that are poor, desperate and inured to hardship can be quite formidable.

Don't forget the Comanches, Kiowas too. Are there still Kickapoos in northern Mexico? They used to raise Hell in Texas before the Federal government in the form of Ranald McKenzie suppressed them.

Dont mess with mexicans they are battlehardened and very cruel thanks to narcos. They will skin bubba and billy alive, slowly behead them with a rusty knife and dissolve their bodies in vats of acid.

Sorry, had to be said.


Bullsh^t!
Anyone that has a penchant for molding the country in their image like this guy would have many against him.

It's who Obama is, not what he is.


Yet you have incited race problems in posting in this manner.

America didn't help Texas win independence from Mexico, Texans did it all by themselves.

Here is your homework for tonight, research key words: Texas Revolution, General Sam Houston, Davy Crockett, Battle of The Alamo, Battle of San Jacinto.
