The
author blogs in attempt to negatively expose Republican’s Rick Perry and Greg
Abbott with hopes of shedding light and brining attention to the non-supporters
of the GOP. Her credibility lies within
her lack of support of the Republican Party and her continuous simplistic
transitions of “here’s the deal.” Her
claim is that Governor Rick Perry is making an enormous mistake by deploying
the Texas National Guard, and that Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott is ridiculous
for contemplating on suing the federal government in attempt to reimburse Perry’s
decision. She is able to effectively
bring evidence to both Perry and Abbott’s actions. She reminds her readers the limited functions
of the Texas National Guard and how they are “Darth Vaders” who will basically “be
trained to stand there looking tough and babysit.” Her proof against Abbott is calling out his “frivolous
lawsuits he’s filed against President Obama,” and how the loss of money could
have resulted in “lower taxes by about 70%.”
She brings awareness to her logic by stating Perry and Abbott’s
movements are mere underline meanings of “political posturing.”
I
agree with some of the valid points Texas blogger Juanita Jean’s has made on
this topic. Sending troops as a tactical
scare and suing the federal government are not the answers. It sadly does appear that several politicians
are using the border crisis for their own political gain.
