Those of you unfamiliar with the myriad roles of the Texas Lootenant Gubbinor might not be aware that first and formost in his duties is to defend the state from the predations of the president of the United States. Todd Staples, one of the several equally silly and terrible choices for that office on the Republican ticket, has put out an ad clarifying that.

So Mr. President, if you still want to mess with Texas, we've got a saying for you. Come and take it.
Hmm.
