More excuses. You can go around the lakes and rivers. He can continue his denial that a wall will work but you see how that is selling....not good. His support is decreasing by the minute. Bachmann learned that support is fickle and can be gone at a snap of a finger. Perry thankfully is going to learn that fact. He is one of the biggest people with excuses I have ever seen. He complains about Obama not helping with Immigration but he has only been President for two years. Perry was President for 10 years and he has not done anything with a Republican President.....he didn’t complain about President Bush not assisting him with stopping the aliens. Why? Where are the letters to Bush asking for assistance? Where are the lawsuits to the federal government when Bush was President. He did nothing and now that he is running for President suddenly is complaining that little Obama is not helping me.....come on. This guy clearly loves the illegal aliens. He feels sorry for them. Remember he said that you should not care about a last name or hearless if we don’t agree with giving aliens free bennies. He is passionate over the aliens.
He can love them all he wants but in the end they’ll vote for Democrats and that will be the end of this country.
As for the Bush years, Perry did ask for help and Bush put in the beginnings of the electronic fence and he sent in the National Guard. Obama cut the funding. We've got aprox 1.1-1.2 million illegals living in our state that we can't throw out, we can't deny them services, and thanks to the Supreme Court, we have to educate them, all at the cost of Texas Tax Payers. On top of that we have to secure the border for the rest of the country with our cops. On our border our DPS Helicopters and recently a Lifeflight helicopter in US air space took gun fire from the Mexican side of the border. We are invaded almost nightly by NARCO-Terrorist and corrupt Mexican Military Units that out gun and out man our police officers that are left to do the job the US Government wont do and you think demanding that the US Government wont do their Constitutional Duty is complaining?
Now I'll grant you that Perry's response "heartless" and "we don't care about your last name" was a stupid answer and if he can't explain that then he doesn't deserve our support, but don't accuse him of being weak on the border or "loving Illegals" when he is the only one running who is actually in the fight.
Personally I think he fell back on the lines that were being used on Texans when the in-state tuition issue was going on, which we supported, and for that he was just plain stupid. It didn't work then either. But what we did understand is that we had no other options, they are here, we aren't allowed to kick them out so there are two options for them, jail or working out of a Home Depot parking lot, we chose to give the children a third option, give them a $151 discount at our Jr. colleges and turn them into Tax Payers. We didn't like it, but the other two options leave them sucking up or tax dollars with nothing in return.
I'm not a Perrybot, I'm not sure that Gov. Goodhair would make a good President, I don't want the left to fall back on the "he's stupid" story with him not being able to disprove it and the swing voters believing it. But I know Mitt is the RINO we don't want, Palin isn't running, Bachmann is either an idiot or has surrounded herself with idiots and that keeps her from getting my support, I don't think Cain has the experience, and I'm not sure that Newt can carry the middle and the rest I just don't like. But maybe a Newt/Cain or a Cain/Newt I can send money to.
So, will you build the wall around the lakes and rivers on the Mexican side, thus seizing their territory and starting a war?
Or will you build the wall on OUR side, thus surrendering valuable water assets to a foreign country?
Neither sounds very conservative to me, but apparently you have a much better idea of what that means.
You might also explain how the many species of animals which depend on the water will get through your impenetrible fence. Or maybe they should just wither and die in the desert. Anything for “the wall”.
