Rick Perry: 'We Don'T Have The Resources' To Secure Texas Border
BREITBART TEXAS ^ | 17 Jun 2014 | by BOB PRICE

Posted on 06/17/2014 6:55:58 PM PDT by kingattax

HOUSTON, Texas—Governor Rick Perry (R-TX) appeared on Fox News’ Fox and Friends show and said Texas lacks the resources and manpower to secure the 1,200 mile Texas border with Mexico.

The comment sent shock waves through a Texas grassroots discussion thread on Facebook this morning of activists who are seeking a special session call from the Governor to deal with the issue of border security.

What a candy-ass response for a TEXAS Governor! Embarrassing!

Perry would rather Obamaminate the sacred Texas Border that runs against the hostile Nation of Mexico than call up his own National Guard, send his State Attorney General to the Republican-controlled US House to sue the damn US Federal Government for Border expenses reimbursement due to illegal non-enforcement of existing Federal Border Law by lawless Obama and lawless Holder.

Governor Perry could have sewed up Conservative support for his Presidential Campaign, or Speaker of the US House of Representatives, by standing for TEXAS and standing proud against Obama and Holder.

Ponder this Governor Candy-Ass:

“The Governor of a State shall call up the States’ National Guard if He/She declares a State of Emergency.” [TEXAS Manual of Common Sense Law].

Currently, there is no Federal “Dream” Law allowing for the physical invasion of Illegal Alien “Children” Invaders from Mexico - - - only the “Executive Order” edicts of a demented Obama that no State Governor has yet had the courage to challenge.

The failure of the Feds to repel the Illegal Alien Invaders should in no way deter the States bordering Mexico from physically repelling these Illegal Alien Invaders by any means necessary, including Concertina Wire Barriers, Flash-bang and tear gas canisters launched by mortars as far into Mexico as possible by heavily armed, State National Guard Troops.

Federal Border Laws are not being enforced, at the order of a Demented Obama, and thus The States along the Southern Border must enforce the Federal and State Border Laws that Obama chooses to not obey.

Since Obama has no Constitutional basis for his actions, let him try to enforce his lawless “Executive Orders.”

As with the First Civil War:

STATES’ RIGHTS ARE WORTH FIGHTING FOR!

In a thousand years they’ll make shows about how the US border must have been secured by ancient aliens because we sure as hell couldn’t have done it.

Governor Perry has the necessary authority to order the state military forces and/or the reserve militia to the border to help control illegal entry to Texas.

‘Who’s paying these people? Soros?’

Someone is and I think he is as good a candidate as any. I hate to say this but calling for any government intervention in this or pretty much any other problem we have is a waste of time. It is high time that the people take matters into their own hands. If our forefathers had went this route we would still be sending nasty petitions to King George’s descendants. The government causes these problems and then we ask them to solve them. Kind of insane when you think about it.

Perry had no trouble imposing vaccines on children
by state Order for his own profit.

But he cannot figure out how to protect the border.

LOSER.

Your post is the first time I’ve heard of Perry referred to as a former democrat.

Is this true?

Ask for volunteers. I'm sure there will be plenty.

That's a good idea.

These “children” are just the tip of the Obama Trojan Horse flood of Illegal Alien Invaders from Mexico that are hungry for our Welfare Dollars.

Candy-Ass Perry: if you can’t find the money to close and seal our TEXAS Border with the Texas State National Guard, then how in the “Obama” are you going to pay for all the Welfare Dollars that these Illegal Alien Invaders from Mexico will demand!??????
