After a couple of weeks with little mention of the immigration issue, some reports say that Romney will revive the discussion at tonight’s debate. With Obama and Holder intervening to block SC’s new immigration law, it will have some more immediacy than even in previous debates.
Gov Rick Perry should have A LOT to say about this.
He wants the border sealed, drug cartels killed off and NO amnesty.
Gov. Perry and Texas have had to realistically deal with the mess wrought on border states by Federal action and inaction. There is no more we can do to alleviate the problem with the Fed's foot on our neck.
Every request is met with silence, scorn or a bandaid. Every legal challenge is met with the US Attorney Gen. and Federal Courts tying the state up in court. Federal immigration laws on the books are ignored and/or become a financial burden on the state and businesses.
Currently our redistricting map here in Texas is tied up in the Supreme Court (this will bump Texas out of the Super Tuesday vote) and our Photo Voter ID Bill is sitting on Eric Holder's desk, awaiting his approval.
