This is the second time Perry has channeled democrats. The first time was during his first debate when he said Republicans were being heartless not supporting free tuition for illegals.

That’s crap and you should know it. He described the situation (which was that they would pay IN-STATE tuition, not FREE tuition) and claimed that anyone who would treat them more severely had no heart. These were the CHILDREN of parents who came here illegally, after all, children who had no control over their parents’ action, and who had graduated from Texas high schools. Since nearly ALL of the Texas Republican legislators, where the bill originated, voted FOR it, maybe you should re-examine the issue before spouting off about it again.
The border control issue is clear; we have lost control of it. Perry is strongly in favor of re-establishing that control (unlike Bush), but he at least has the sense to consider how real people’s lives will be affected as we go about the process.
