Does this mean we do have a heart?

Would not be alive if we lacked a heart. More then likely it means that Perry occasionally thinks with the wrong organ.

Where in my comment did I mention anything about Cain...perhaps you have been over exposed to liberal thinking processes, maybe even to much sensativity training.

What on earth is “over passionate”? Is that like misremembered?

My take on it, is that it means he said what he really meant to say. Over passionate is an attempt to cover his a**.

I agree. Getting over passionate over illegal aliens is a huge red flag.

I want two things from Perry on immigration. First apologize to the vast majority of the base that he called heartless. Second, a commitiment to rigorously enforce current immigration law

As I always say, don't listen to what politicians say, look at what they've done.

I don't care what comes out of Perry's mouth about illegal immigration. He's done nothing to curb it in Texas, where I live, and where my business has been murdered by it.

I’m tired of politicians that are bent on showing their “compassion” with my hard earned money.

As am I. Perry's dog and pony show may have played well in his home state of Texas but Americans don't want it.

A smart GOP candidate would note the monstrous lack of action by the Mexican Government with regards to the daily violence on the border and demand they get their house in order or threaten to invade like we did in the 1850’s.

Nothing else will gin up the base like a promise to invade Mexico and get them back in line.

It’s a national security thing.

He would if President. He can’t deport anyone. TX catches crimminals turns them over to Ice and they let them go on Obama’s orders. Perry has a number of teams made up of several groups. He has asked Obama for boots on the ground, aviation assets, and drones and have been refused. TX has spent millions trying to secure the border. I am from TX, and know about all of this stuff that Perry has been doing.

Hummmm, I am from TX and Perry has done quite a bit.. Immigration control is a federal duty. Obama does nothing. When TX catches illegals, Ice turns them loose. He currently has teams on the border trying to stop illegal activity. If I know this, why don’t you if you live in TX?

Oh? Like demand that a Republican majority legislature get a strong anti-illegal immigration bill to his desk in the last session?

No? Gee, that's too bad, when literally thousands of political activists across the state were virtually burning up his phone lines for months, pleading for him to do so.

Unfortunately, our Governor sat on his hands and let every single bill die without comment, which is why these Tea Party activists wrote this:

This is exactly the Governor’s views on illegal immigrants. He has opposed the feds’ ignoring the illegals who enroll their children in our schools and the “oligarchy” of the federal judges that force us to educate them for years on end. He’s always said it’s better to stop them at the border, to catch and deport them early.

The only reason we have the problem with college is that all of these young men and women have been allowed to stay since at least 15 years old and attend our high schools because of a 1982 Supreme Court ruling, Plyler v. Doe and the fed’s refusal to catch and deport their families for all that time.

That's one I don't think he can back out of, i. e., the damage has already been done.
