Talk is cheap, Rick.

Quit jawing and do it.

(Not that you haven’t had the opportunity prior to this.)

A tad late, Governor.

The ole story about ‘closing the barn door AFTER the horse has escaped’ comes to mind.

Wait much longer and they will all be here anyway.

Perry has been saying this for how long?

Just secede already. Then you can do whatever you want with the borders and tell the U.S. we’ll just send everyone back who hasn’t been there for the past five years.

Perry, what in the heck are you waiting for. Most of us have been saying that for years. That is what the National Guard is for, your use to protect your citizens in the case of invasion.

The FIRST THING Perry might consider doing is REVERSING his position on supporting virtually EVERYTHING that illegals want, such as in-state tuition, for starters.

It’s tough here in Texas to take him seriously on this issue.

Governor, The feds are in charge of the border. YOU are responsible for securing all property located in Texas beginning at a point located one inch north of the Mexican border. Let the feds do what the feds will do at that line and you do what you need to in ALL the rest of Texas, up to the border.

In other words, don't whine about what the feds are NOT doing, show us what you ARE doing.....

“Soon” may be too late, and Abbott is as quiet as a mouse on this too.

Governor Perry could really mix things up if he asked the border country and adjacent Sheriffs to start organizing armed militia posses of “honest citizenry”. While the State police and even the National Guard are the first line of defense, the posses would be like light cavalry, on both vehicles and horseback, as a second echelon screen for any illegals who got through.

Good — but it should have been done already.

Trey Gowdy came out yesterday and urged the states to just start taking care of business and go around the Federal govt. I have been waiting for this to start happening. Go Rick.

Good deal! Secure the border! It’s obvious that Obama is doing just the opposite.

God bless Texas!

It should be done now. Period.

Lawful way - sure, I’m ok with that.

But it should be done about 3 years ago.

Honestly, it was supposed to have been done during Pres. Reagan’s term.
