That statement is from Perry himself in the speech where he talked about bi-national insurance.
I’ve been on FR for over 12 years (posted under my husband’s name for about a year and signing my name after my comment before posting). FR didn’t have all the features is has today.
I’ve never used some of them although I do bookmark some things and have used some for “capturing” areas of interest (Castro, Chavez, global warming, education, China, etc).
I make comments about myself in posts: I do not lie or have any agenda other than keeping this country from going the way of Venezuela.
I’ve lived in many states over the years (Texas now) so by listing a state on an “about” page really isn’t informative.
Occasionally I look at someone’s homepage when they’re an especially aggressive poster. And I have found that for the most part, they don’t really shine much light on who is posting.
And regarding your quote from what I believe is a 2001 quote taken from a long speech given by a Texas governor to the president of a country that shares 1250 miles and is our country’s largest trading partner — the open borders remark is not unusual and it is not “no” borders. People have been walking and diving across that border for a long, long time. If you choose to change the meaning of what open border means please let the forum know so we understand what you understand it to mean.
I hope that helps.
