Texas Gov. Rick Perry is a radical who encourages illegal immigration.”
No. Perry is an immigration RINO, like GW Bush and others in the GOP, he doesnt ‘encourage’ it, but will not make hard choices to shut it down.
“Since 2001, Texas has allowed students to qualify for in-state college tuition if they’ve lived in the state for three years” ...
It’s a mistaken law and it would be popular to overturn it, but you have the alliance of business and left-wing and ethnic special interestes ....
“... has come from the influential Texas Association of Business and chambers of commerce, as well as educators, the Texas Catholic Conference and civil libertarians”
- TAB/Chamber of Commerce = cheap-labor lobby
- ‘educators’ = Educrat unions seeking to keep illegal immigrant captive student audience
- Catholic Bishops = representing the illegal aliens in their pews
- civil libertarians = open borders ACLU types
So basically an alliance of open borders folks like the unpopular and bad policy.
Big deal. It is still wrong.
It is sad to see you political bias cloud your understanding of Governor Rick Perry. In fact, you should be pointing the finger of blame at the true cause of our immigration problem: The Obama Regime. Each illegal in this country is a vote for Obama's reelection. Do you get the connection?
If Governor Perry were elected President, he would immediately bring federal troops and all the technological resources of our military on to that border and shut it down. He has said over and over that the only way to seal that border is to bring "boots on the ground." He has said it loud and clear and you pretend you did not hear it. You act like he is clanging a bell and calling them over the border, with maidens with baskets of goodies to hand them as they cross over. You do not hear the desperation in his voice as the Obama Regime continues to ignore his requests for more help on the border. You do not seem to give a damn that Texas has had to foot the bill for whatever border security they get. And all you do is criticize because the people of Texas don't cough up the billions of dollars to do immigration control like click-o prest-o magic.
Well, to do immigration control right, it's going to take some real work and it's going to take some real money that the people of Texas don't have. They are busy spending that money on the illegals that they do have in the state. Besides, it is the Federal Government's responsibility to secure the border as outlined in the Constitution.
So, let's get off Governor Rick Perry's back and start pointing the finger at the Obama Regime.
