Perry said the Arizona law wasn’t something he thought Texas would adopt. He said Arizona could do what they wanted, because he believed in State’s Rights.
Thank you! I think some FReepers are MSM the way they distort their “facts.” :)
Let me get this straight. Perry says he wants to stem the flow of illegal immigrants. Yet he offers in state tuition to their kids.
He criticizes Obama for not securing the border, for not enforcing federal law. Arizona passes a law that mirrors federal law, so that courageous state law enforcement officials like Joe Arpaio can secure the border.
Perry dismisses the law as “not right for Texas.” Why was it not right for Texas? He doesn’t say. Slick platitudes like “it’s not right for Texas” won’t cut it. He just didn’t want to stand with Jan Brewer.
If he is complaining about Obama not securing the border, why doesn’t he get off his duff and pass a law that IS right for Texas. The reason is plain: The laws he has pushed are the corridor and the tuition breaks for illegals, measures designed to promote, rather than stop, illegal immigration.
His actions speak louder than his phony platitudes. He is an open borders guy.
