of challenges in figuring out what caused the explosion at the fertilizer
plant that killed 14 people and destroyed part of the small Texas
town. (AP Photo/Pool/ LM Otero)The Associated PressWEST, Texas Burglars
occasionally sneaked into and around a Texas fertilizer plant in the years
before a massive, deadly explosion sometimes looking for a chemical
fertilizer stored at the plant that can be used to make methamphetamine,
according to local sheriff's records.Sheriff's deputies were called more
than 10 times to West Fertilizer in the 11 years before an
April 17 blast that killed 14 people, injured 200 and leveled part
of the tiny town of West, according to McLennan County sheriff's office
files released through an open-records request. Multiple calls involved
suspicion that anhydrous ammonia was being stolen.The records portray a
plant with no outer fence that was a sporadic target of intruders.
Law enforcement was occasionally called because someone had noticed the
smell of gas outside or signs of an intruder.Anhydrous ammonia is a
fertilizer that is a frequent target of burglars trying to manufacture methamphetamine.
In the right conditions it can be flammable or explosive, though that
is nearly impossible outdoors. However, a leak of the gas could create
a potentially fatal toxic chemical
"Since our founding, the United States has been a nation that respects
all faiths.We reject all efforts to denigrate the religious beliefs of others.
But there is absolutely no justification to this type of senseless violence.
None."-- President Obama on Sept. 12, 2012 discussing the attack on the
U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, then said by the administration to have
been spurred by an Internet video deemed offensive to Islam.Elections are
clarifying things, though not necessarily for voters.Americans are still
puzzling over the significance and consequences of 2012's electoral embrace
of an unpopular status quo. Is dysfunction the new normal? Is sclerotic
malaise the best we can muster for a federal government?But for the
candidates and campaign teams in the midst of elections, they are marvelously
simplifying affairs. If you don't win, nothing else matters. Other considerations
must take a back seat, even if you are the incumbent president
of the most important nation on the planet.If one believes he or
she is in politics to do good, as almost all politicians do,
ignoble attainment of a victory is easily excused by the thought of
good deeds achieved once installed or retained in office.Today's birthday
boy, Nicolo Machiavelli, wrote that if a politician is successful, "the
means will always be considered honest." Or, as his modern intellectual
heir, Al Davis of the Oakland Raiders, put it: "Just win, baby."But
it is not always so.
