Benghazi, Texas

"We've asked."

"We've done all we could."

"We're relying on the Administration to save us."

With absolutely no disrespect to the victims of the Benghazi attacks in 2012, we are hearing the same thing from Texas Governor Rick Perry. They have been given a bucket with which to catch a torrent. Is anybody listening?

One thousand illegal aliens are streaming into the US from Central America -- daily. Texas has no place to put these people. Where are all the folks who cried about the treatment of prisoners in Guantanamo Bay? Where is Al Sharpton? Where is PETA, for Pete's sake?

And where -- oh, where -- is our Administration? Thousands of people streaming in across the border -- a United States border -- I mean, I assume they're not coming from Louisiana. And the state of Texas is on its own?

Governor Perry has gone so far as to suggest he is so at his wit's end, he sees no other explanation for this debacle but to think the Obama Administration is in on it. Have you ever been there? Ever been so stressed, spread thin, without answers, you start thinking people are against you? That all of this just might be intentional on the part of the folks who are supposed to be protecting you? Crazy talk!

Though I'm not so sure those caught in a tiny, dilapidated outpost in Libya would have agreed.
