Here is what the Tenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution says:
"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
Instead of having the people and the State of New York have the power to decide that issue for New York, would you rather have an unconstitutional power-grab by the Federal Government so that the Federal Government can turn around and cram gay marriage down the throat of YOUR State?
Would you have Perry order the Texas National Guard to invade New York?
Perry is the Governor of Texas, not the Emperor of the United States.
Need to pull the anchor on anchor babies and throw them back over the border.
What about Ricardo’s affinity for Islam??
Perry came out publicly against AZ1070 which contains sensible provisions, like requiring all businesses to take 60 seconds to use e-verify before hiring, that actually work. He’s also BFF with Vicente Fox, and shares his vision for a borderless North America. He’s a militant open borders progressive to the core.
And immigration’s only one issue. Perry’s record as governor is disgusting on any number of fronts. What do you want to discuss next? How Perry tried to line his and Giuliani’s pockets by confiscating private land and building the NAU super highway right through the heart of Texas? How he ran Texas coffers dry on insane corporate welfare handouts in exchange for campaign donation kickbacks? Maybe how he used his position of executive privilege to run conservative justices out of the Texas courts?
Tell Perry to start using his real name if he wants to earn back the public trust he’s been cynically exploiting for personal gain the last 10 years. He’s not earned the right to lead a country whose borders he’d like to erase from the map.
