PJ Media ^ | July 10, 2014 | Bryan Preston

Reuters published these two photos from President Obama’s meeting with Texas Gov. Rick Perry Wednesday. The president and the governor met in Dallas to discuss the humanitarian crisis on the Texas-Mexico border. The federal government estimates that 57,000 unaccompanied children have been taken in after illegally crossing into the United States.

In the two photos, Gov. Perry and his team appear to be taking the moment seriously. President Obama is grinning and laughing.

I don’t understand what could have been so funny in that meeting that everyone in the room, except Gov. Perry and his staff, had to laugh hysterically.

Had Saul Alinsky attended that meeting *he* would have been laughing.Ditto Bill Ayers.That's why our Community Organizer-In-Chief & Pals were laughing.

Huh? You have to be kidding?
Perry is an absolute joke, a total fraud.
All Perry can do is talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk
We need leaders who will ACT, not blather or do photo-ops.
Our Republic is being destroyed by these illegal invaders and all Perry does is whine like a little baby....

You are right on all counts. La Raza Rick's been talking big for weeks now and has done little. Even his most strident supporters cannot defend him, which is why your comments have gone unchallenged.

Perry defends still his program to give taxpayer subsidized financial aid and instate tuition to ILLEGAL aliens. To complain about them when he is part of the problem is the height of hypocrisy.

Perry is a fraud.

Fitting in what you say. Sen. Alan Simpson warned over 20 years ago:

“Americans are fed up with efforts to make them feel that [they] do not
have that fundamental right of any people—to decide who will join them
and help form the future country in which they and their posterity will live.
But if the elites and the advocates idea of giving voting rights to non-citizen
majorities catches on—and don’t be surprised if it does - Americans could
be faced with the ultimate absurdity of people outside the social compact
making rules for those inside it.

There’s a lot of yelling that Perry/Texas should “do something” about the border.

I’m SURE that everyone doing the hollering understands the border.

I’m SURE that they understand that the Texas/Mexico border is 1241 miles long...2.5 - 3 times as long as California, Arizona and New Mexico COMBINED.

I’m SURE that they understand that the Texas/Mexico border is longer that it is from New York City to Topeka, Kansas...or from Jacksonville, Florida to Midland, TX.

I’m SURE that they understand the Santa Elena canyon...where 75 yards separates Texas and Mexico and where 1500’ cliffs are on the opposite sides of the Rio Grande. The Rio Grande that you could wade without getting your knees wet most of the year.

I’m SURE they’ve been there and seen the Chihuahuan Desert and understand the futility of fencing it.

I’m SURE their states have offered Texas some of their own funds and manpower to help seal the border.

I’m SURE they’ve read up and studied on the increased DPS/Texas Ranger presence ordered to the border by Perry/Texas.

I’m SURE they’ve viewed the videos about the air and water equipment on the Texas border....paid for by Texans.

Know what? I’m getting a little tired of people who haven’t been here, haven’t lived here and don’t know anything but what they read/believe casting aspersions on Texans about what we SHOULD be doing, NEED to do, etc.

Before they do that, why don’t they quit their jobs and drive their cute little asses down here and do their part?

Or demonstrate how THEIR state has contributed to the protection of our NATIONAL border?

Or maybe, just maybe, act a little thankful for what Texas taxpayers ARE doing to try to stem the tide...sans Washington, DC.

Maybe that.

Perry’s not perfect. Texas isn’t perfect. But there’s no other state in the Union dealing with this issue at the magnitude we are.

How about instead of bitching, you show how you/your state is doing more than Texans are to try to stem the tide?

No? Then how about a little help?

No? Then how about a little appreciation.

No? Then, I’d appreciate it if you’d shut the hell up.
