HOUSTON, Texas--On Monday Texas Governor Rick Perry announced during a press conference that up to 1,000 National Guard troops will be activated along a section of the Texas-Mexico border in an attempt to stop the tidal wave of illegal immigrants entering the U.S. each day. The governor was joined by Lieutenant Governor David Dewhurst, who claimed that unaccompanied minors only make up a "tiny fraction" of the illegals currently entering the nation. A memo, obtained by the Monitor on Sunday, indicated that the National Guard will only be activated in the Rio Grande Sector. Dewhurst said during the press conference, "It's not in our Texas DNA just to sit idly when we can be involved in solving a problem. It's not only our right as Texans -- it's our responsibility to act independently of the federal government if the federal government fails to do the job they're required to do. ... Washington has refused to control, to secure our borders. I'm mad, and most Texans are mad."

Just like when Castro opened the prisons during the Mariel boat lift and exported all his criminals to the US.

Lost sight of what ILLEGAL Alien means..

Course, whatever Holder says is illegal is actaully illegal..
AND whatever he ignores is NOT illegal..

Whats illegal depends on what day of the week it is..
