What is it with Texas politicians - why do they all kowtow to the Mexican government ?

It's known as socialism and the new world order.

During the last legislative session, Gov Perry asked for and got over $120 million for border security, over what has already been spent. Texans will have to pay for this because the feds won't.

Only about 20% of Texans think that a fence will be effective.

If you think a fence is effective, build one around your state. You don't need to worry about how this might affect your onion exports, you still have an abundant supply of crackers to export.
