Hey DRey,
This the same Perry who says No to a border fence?
The same one who is for in state tuition for illegals kids?

Personally I get f-ing fed up with paying for all kinds of crappola for illegals. Medical, dental, housing, food stamps, and now I subsidize illegals freakin education, abortions, how about freaking funerals too?????

So, Joe, how is life in Florida? Did not know that you paid for any kids going to school in Texas. which by the way, pays for it’s government just like Florida with a state sales tax.

On a serious note, I suggest that everyone read the following report about Border Security:

http://www.texasagriculture.gov/vgn/tda/files/1848/46982_Final%20Report-Texas%20Border%20Security.pdf

It was written by two military experts who each have extensive experience. The report seems long, but one can get the meat of it by reading pages 9-15.

Note the recommendations.

Perry already put border fences where they will actually work in Texas. Some misinformed people seem to think it's worth taxpayer money to fence off Texas from the whole of the Rio Grande River (where illegals are NOT crossing), but Perry is correct that this is ludicrous. For Arizona, that does not have a large of a border or a river between them and Mexico, a border fence is a fabulous idea...as Rick Perry says.

As far as in-state tuition. That was past by a veto-proof majority in the legislature, and at least at that time, Texans supported it as the best way to ensure taxpayers did NOT have to pay to support illegals through welfare and in our prisons.

Perry has spent $200,000,000.00 of Texan's taxpayer money security the southern border where the feds have failed. He has been to Israel to find the best methods of securing it, and come back with ideas. He has asked for drones, he has asked for manpower, and he has been denied. You don't have to like Perry. You don't have to like Texas' answer to the children of illegals in Texas that are seeking citizenship being eligible to pay their own in-state tuition. But if you don't like Perry because he's not tough on border security, you have a screw loose. He's the best there is.

I agree with you but these are federal issues and they must be addressed at the federal level.
