The federal government is not about to pay tax payer monies on a border who’s governor wants it an open border. He’s already go tmore than any other state from the government and it’s not working. When Perry gets serious about closed borders and cleaning out the sewer there...then our Gov. can talk. But it is beyond astounding any would throw any more money on Texas border to ‘Protect Texans robust industries” there....and on the Mexico border. Mexico and Texas can and should handle their own security if they require the border remains oppen for all the commerce they do there.
I want to know where you get the idea Gov. Perry wants open borders. Show me a link to a statement.
Here’s something for you to think about: On August 9, 2010, Gov. Perry had to meet Pres. Bozo on the tarmac at Austin to give him a letter asking him to secure the border. He had repeatedly asked for a meeting with Pres. Bozo on this issue, and Pres. Bozo had repeatedly refused, so Gov. Perry had to intercept him on the tarmac as he was leaving the plane. Bozo would not even take the letter - Gov. Perry had to give it to Valerie Jarrett!
If you would take the time to read his book, “Fed Up!” you would understand that Gov. Perry IS NOT FOR OPEN BORDERS!!! He wants the FedGov to do its job to secure the borders (as required by the Constitution), because our national security depends on it.
