No. We should do what Perry is doing. Dealing with the ones that are in our country due to federal failure, and advocate sealing the border.
I know how more people can access affordable health care.
End all federal regulations.
GARDASIL!!
Have no idea what your talking about
Bachmann answered the Danbury question correctly - she just did not spell out what you referred to - that Jefferson’s quote was used and hijacked **against** religion instead of protection for it.
Perry looks great.
So you have no respect for the rule of law. Illegal is illegal and if you respect the rule of law you do not aid in an illegal activity.
Yes D...reward the Criminal...
Oh ....MY ....GAWD! leave it to Wallace..HPV again!
Well that is the problem isn't it...if our immigration laws were followed they wouldn't be here. ..if the border Patrols were allowed to do there job..they wouldn't be here...if a fence was built ...they wouldn't be here.
Amnesty for those here is not the answer...send them home and let them build their own nation....rise up against their governance and get the people in there who want the country to succeed
Impressive fence, which side of the Rio Grande should it be built on?
The fence should be 50 miles inside Mexico.
There are other subsidies of course of varying impact.
The cold, hard facts are in-state simply doesn't pay the whole bill for the program received by the students.
In effect, out of state tuition paying American students from other states end up subsidizing the tuition for illegal aliens in Texas schools.
Closer to announcing for a Presidential run you mean. Riiiigggghhhhttt.
Considerably higher than Obama's. Aside from that, IQ, once you reach a certain level, is not as important as smarts and common sense. Sarah has plenty of both.
R. Perry has not enough smarts to be president if he made these unbelievable stupid statements. Or is he bought off?
Gaaaawd, not the vaccine crap again.
