"The irony is that the Leftists in this country will use a situation like this to argue for greater taxes in order provide for the additional members of the "needy" class."
==========================================
Right. The 'Leftists' are the ones causing all this mess . .
Crazy and stray as a loon - and wanting to join the ever-growing OBL Governor's Club . .You can only imagine what these people discuss in their hidden round table meetings before they go public with this stuff.
Here is a yet another champion of the 'New and Improved' Compassionate Republican . .
==============================================
Immigrants, legal or otherwise, come to Texas to "put a roof over their heads" and Texas has a responsibility to provide them education and health care once they are here, Republican gubernatorial candidate Carole Keeton Strayhorn told a conservative GOP group today.
In a week when the governors of Arizona and New Mexico declared states of emergency for counties along their border with Mexico, citing the "ravages and terror" caused by illegal immigration, Strayhorn took a conciliatory tone on the same issue. But she also said the state needs help from the federal government.
They can wear a Republican lapel pin. They're still Leftist in ideology. Corporate socialists are still socialists.
