I can only hope that governor Perry disagrees with her. With democRAT govs in Arizona and New Mexico coming out for increased border defense, this is all the Republicans need. Sheesh!

I hope that's the end of her. There's got to be somebody better.

My first thought when reading this was..."well she just lost the election"...

until I remembered that Texas is NOW over 50% minorities..

I don't know how other minorities feel about the "illegal" ones from Mexico and other places...but, if I were a minority from say, India, Vietnam, or elsewhere, and I did it the "correct" way, I wouldn't take to kindly to catering to illegals...

Also, if I were a black American...I wouldn't want, just like white Americans, to have MY TAXES go to funding social programs for ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS...

If I'm not mistaken, Perry's position is not greatly different.

This was simply a case of a politician saying "I really don't want to be elected, don't vote for me as I am Illegal alien friendly.

"This is a Republican?"


And some on this Forum have been angered at those of us that have the AUDACITY to call repubs on the border.


THIS IS WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT!

Hillary voted against more border agents and more detainee beds.

Hillary voted for amnesty for illegals in the ag bill.


Hillary is not a centrist she has a 0 rating by the acu.

Ben Nelson is a centrist he has a rating in the 50's.


Hillary wants to use taxpayer money to pay for illegals going to college.


Hillary is a radical liberal that votes like a radical liberal but has the media spreading a myth that she is a centrist. But she will never be able to hide from her radical liberal voting record.

Hillary's voting record is more liberal than Ted Kennedy and yet she is a centrist. When it comes to Hillary it is what she says in her triangulation scheme not how she votes.

What about the state's responsibility to its CITIZENS?

Absolute nonsense. None of the public agencies or taxpayers have a responsibility towards illegal aliens or towards immigrants. Sure we can turn them away from hospital doors. Many Americans are not getting all the medical care they need because they cannot afford it.

I had no idea we voted to take the responsibility to provide illegals with health care. My son, a young independent businessman, doesn't have health insurance. Too bad he isn't an illegal alien instead of having to pay so much in taxes that he can't afford health insurance.

Well, it depends on how you define "Republican". If you mean a conservative Republican, the answer is a loud no. If, on the other hand, you mean the GOP Big Tent with its RINOs, liberals and moderates, then, yes, Strayhorn is a Republican.

The kind of Republican that loyal American conservatives despise.
