Herman Cain: “America can be a nation with high fences and wide open doors. That's what built this nation. So we can have high fences and wide open doors, all at the same time.”

Ron Paul: “I think this fence business is designed and may well be used against us and keep us in.”

“The idea that you are going to build a long line of dikes to hold back the sea, does not make sense.”

You underestimate the abilities of lesbian softball teams.

Rick Perry after the Fla debate.

"The idea that heartless Americans are gonna
vote for a great guy like me makes no sense."

Have you ever been to the Texas Border? Do you know that there is a really big river there and several lakes that Texans make a living off of? Do you understand that if we fence it we will be giving US Territorial waters to Mexico? You can not fence the Texas-Mexico Border, anyone who thinks you can is an idiot!

I’ve got a fenced yard. It keeps my dogs in for their safety but I come and go as I please.

Yeah, who’s Perry to doubt American ingenuity? Obambi just said we built the Intercontinental Railroad!

I have viewed the part of the debate where Perry made the "doesn't make sense" statement.
Now let me add some context. He said, almost in the same breath, that we should instead put "boots on the ground".

Perry did not say it couldn't be done, just that there is a more practible way of regulating the border. He also mentioned using unmanned reconnaisance aircraft and other high-tech means of detecting illegal border traffic.

I am getting tired of these out of context, one-sentence criticisms of candidates, no just those aimed at Gov. Perry.

I’ll help him escape if he promises not to come back.

Your analogies are ridiculous.

Anyone can build a fence. The idea that it will solve the illegal problem "IS THE PROBLEM".

Hell, my dog tunneled into my neighbors yard....about 100 times.
