Appeals Court Halts Execution: A federal appeals court in New Orleans has halted the execution of a Texas man that was scheduled to take place later today. David Montgomery of the New York Times reports that the 5th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals postponed the execution of 56-year-old Scott Panetti in order to allow more time to consider issues surrounding the case, particularly whether Panetti's mental illness disqualifies him from execution. Panetti was sentenced to death for the 1992 murders of his wife's parents. Had the execution gone as planned, he would have become the 11th person executed by the state of Texas in 2014.

Another example of the lies Obama and Holder have foisted upon the public regarding the security of our borders. In effect, there is no such thing as a secure deportation of anyone back to Mexico or any other Central American country as there is little to stop a deportee from reentering if he so chooses. There was another recent report of 2 Turkish men with terrorist ties who crossed the border and were later released from Immigration Custody.
Under Obama's leadership, we have a border that is structurally insecure and a demoralized Border Patrol Service who are unable to perform the jobs they were sworn to do because of Obama's executive edicts.
