David Barajas, 31, was charged with murder on Monday, more than two months after his sons David Jr., 12, and Caleb, 11, were killed steps from their home on a rural road outside Houston on Dec. 7.Bond was set at $450,000, police said.Barajas and his sons were pushing the family’s disabled pickup truck toward their home late that night, as the boys’ mother and two younger siblings sat inside, according to a police report released by the Brazoria County Sheriff’s Department.They were struck by Jose Banda, 20, the driver of a Chevy Malibu, instantly killing David Jr. and critically injuring Caleb, who later died at a hospital.“Banda was determined to be intoxicated at the time of the crash,” police said in their report.When cops arrived on the scene, they noticed something else about Banda. He had been shot in the head. But they could not immediately find the murder weapon.“Investigators recovered a projectile from inside of the vehicle that Jose Banda’s was shot in. Investigators were unable to match that projectile to a weapon because no weapons were recovered at the scene,” according the sheriff’s department.Witnesses at the scene watched Barajas walk to his home and allegedly retrieve the gun with which he shot Banda, according to a police report. When police searched the home, they found a pistol holster and ammunition, but no firearm.“Investigators are currently awaiting results of gunshot residue tests which were collected at the scene,” police said. On Friday, a grand jury found there was enough evidence that Barajas could be charged.According to authorities, he does not yet have an attorney.“It really hurt a lot of us,” Jose Roman, a family friend of Barajas, told ABC affiliate KTRK-TV about the death of the boys and the indictment of their father.The boys, both fans of the Houston Texans, were buried last month. Many of the mourners at their funeral wore Texans jerseys.But the family of the slain driver believes justice must be done.“It was an accident. He didn’t purposely do that,’ Janie Tellez told KTRK. “Whoever did it is getting away with murdering my nephew. He deserves justice."

Why President Obama will win. A different perspective.
Reason 2. Rush Limbaugh. What will Rush talk about if President Obama loses? Have you checked his ratings? Even after the Sandra Fluke debacle and losing sponsors hand over fist Rush weathered the storm. Hat in America is at an all time high. Makes for good radio.
Reason 3. Fox News. Have you checked their ratings? President Obama was a Godsend for Fox News. Under Bush they spent 8 years trying to defend two failed wars. The news was getting stale. President Obama was injected. The hatred spiked over 400%! Fox News parades so much hate you would think Lucifer is pulling the strings over there. They can't sell their hate for four more years if Mitt Romney wins.
Reason 4. GMC. Have you checked their sales? The car companies are back! A few short years ago you had to have AAA credit to purchase any car off the lot. Enter President Obama. Cash For Clunkers worked no matter what Fox News tells you. Mitt Romney said "Let Detroit Fail". People don't forget asinine comments like that.
Reason 5. Big Banks. They were tanking too. Under President Obama he bailed them out. Most if not all have paid their bail out loans off already.
Reason 6. Single White Women.
Single white women saw a Congress decide to take away their right to Pro Choice. Single white women are a major key vote that the Republicans seem to being absolutely nothing to keep. As a matter of fact a few of the Fox News pundits decided to call single women stupid and the Tea Party went as far to say that women shouldn't be able to vote.
Reason 7. The Hispanic Vote.
Now this voting block is also crucial. For years the Republicans have used the Hispanic vote to counter the black vote. That was until Y2K. All of a sudden the GOP decided that there were too many "illegals" in the United States. In Tea Party terminology "illegal " stands for anyone in the U.S. that looks like they are from Mexico. The decision to throw away this vote will have far reaching implications for years to come. This community is growing in numbers and the GOP will pay dearly for throwing the Hispanics under the bus.
Reason 8. The Gay Vote.
Love it or hate it there are gay people in America. The Christian Conservative Right played their hand. They don't care for the gay lifestyle and think that the gays should hide in the shadows like they have always done. Another decision that will come back to haunt the GOP.
I will leave this blog open because I am sure that there are more reasons that someone will remind me of. Thoughts?

GOP what have you done?? My tweet rants.
The Latino vote is ever increasing. The white vote is ever decreasing. Are you trying to lose?
Now the Dems have the black vote, gay, Latino, single moms, teachers, nuns, & 99ers all locked up for years.
Dear GOP, In your efforts to increase the hate following the Tea Party you destroyed your party for years to come.
How will you come back from this madness? This will impact the whole party for at least 5-10 years.
That means that the next President might be a Democrat too! You really screwed this one up royally.
How could you fumble away the black and ever increasing vote GOP? You used to have both of them. Now look at you.
All the GOP has left is the angry white vote. You can't win elections like that anymore. That wore out in the 80's with the welfare queens.
GOP you need to go and look at the man in the mirror. I no longer recognize you after hooking up with the racist tea Party.
Please GOP wake up! I actually like a few of you. The racism has to go though. The crazy part is that you can't see the hate.
Alas. You won't listen to me. You will lose in big in 2012. Then you will turn more racist. You will use the filibuster repeatedly.
You will listen to Rush Limbaugh. You will cease to exist. Unless you change............
If you don't change in a few years we will be talking about the late great GOP who followed the Tea Party over a cliff.
There will be camp fire stories told about the late great GOP of the 20th century. Destroyed by the racist tea Party. What a joke.
So in conclusion: GOP how is that hopey changey Mitt Romney tea Party thingy working out for ya?
