Perry the weakest candidate in 2012 now says “Mr Pres call out the guard!!” the guard is controlled by the governor doesn’t anyone remember the botched response to Katrina by their gov? Bush had to wait on her, so what is Perry waiting for? He can have guard exercises or guard emergency actions. Lets see if he still all hat and no cattle.
The problem with calling out the guard or any other government entity is that the illegals are running into their arms now. They know that once they’re on American soil, they go into the system and are here for years at the very least.
We need to stop them before they cross the border and turn them back.
If Perry is too dumb to know the law of his own state what makes you think there is hope if he is waiting for Obama to do something, when he has the power and authority to act but won’t. Even still, initially I was hopeful when I heard Perry talking tough about sending in the National Guard, but again that means they are unarmed and not able to really do anytrhing but watch and report to Fed officials. Too me that is like sending in troops to battle with both arms tied behind their back and taking away their guns.
The law on who could call out the guard was changed following Katrina.
What exactly would YOU have the guard to do?
Stop the Feds from taking the illegals into custody?
shoot the feds or illegals?
