“a largely symbolic bill”

That’s how business as usual Republicans do it.

Make conservative sounding speeches to play with our emotions and take symbolic actions like this one on EPA regs.

Jan Brewer in Arizona did a good one with the symbolic SB 1070 to win her re-election and it got tied up in the courts without being enforced meaning it was ultimately useless.

The games politicians play and Perry is the latest player.

There was nothing symbolic about SB1070 and that is precisely why Perry decided he was against it. Perry is all about symbolism vs. substance when it comes to the issue of Illegal Immigration.

Furthermore, the Supreme Court untyed this law just recently when it sided with AZ against Obozo and said the state on this law.

Get your facts straight!
