Perry has never espoused an open border. There’s a big difference between being against building a fence down the Rio Grande and advocating an open border? Why don’t you take your beef to the Feds who are in charge of protecting the border. It’s not Perry’s job. It’s not the duty of Texas taxpayers to fund it either. Do you only blame Perry or do you include the other border governors?

It’s not the duty of Texas taxpayers to subsidize the college education of illegal aliens, either.

California has been AWOL on border issues as well. So has New Mexico until the recent change in administration. Arizona, OTOH, has taken some leadership in the area without making the excuses which you just made for Perry.

BTW, it is not the duty of the taxpayers in the 46 states which do not share a border with Mexico to shed congressional seats to border states which have inflated their population with illegal aliens, nor is it our duty to subsidize all the social services which illegal aliens demand, but nobody asks us. They just take our money and our congressional representation without asking.

“I support the open borders policy of the Mexican President”

-—Rick Perry.

Now, will you still stay in denial?

They know Perry is not for open borders but they think it enhances their candidate to say he is. It’s pointless and a waste of time to even respond to them anymore.

I don't think any of the other candidates have any experience with border security. And, I really doubt any have taken time to see what El Paso, Del Rio, or Brownsville are like, and places in between. A brief wine and dine with Sheriff Joe is optics, not a record. Rick Perry's record on border security and immigration. <-- The record is actually quite good.
