I hate to say it, but Romney has a legitimate political point.
It's possible to do EVERYTHING good for the economy (by removing the Feds from the equation) and still LOSE THE NATION to the Hispanic Hordes from the south.
Sure, Romney is more lucky than principled to be to the right of Perry on this.
But he is.

Sibling rivalry made especially funny by the fact that they each have one part of a husband and wife team on their staffs.

Romney is unacceptable. Perry has issues. Sarah is my choice, but until she declares I am simply waiting.
I am patient. Sarah will do what she must. I will be here.

“Perry answered that question about the Arizona law:
purpose. I do have some concerns with the law, and I dont believe it is necessarily the right approach for Texas, in part because of the new cause of action it provides against law enforcement. Having battled trial lawyers for decades, I am concerned about opening up the courthouse doors to additional lawsuits. But I strongly support the right of the citizens of Arizona, Texas, or any other state to pass laws to protect themselves. In fact, we joined in federal court with eight other states to help defend Arizona against the Obama administrations lawsuit.

Answered??? He did nothing but talk, then flew off to Mexico,What about PerryCare that would have covered The Mexicans in Mexico as well!

I’m thrilled with any candidate bringing up illegal immigration—and rightly bashing Perry on it.

We allocated an additional $4 billion to the Medicaid program, and more than $900 million to the Childrens Health Insurance Program. I urged legislators to pass a telemedicine pilot program that will enable, through technology, a sick border resident of limited financial means to receive care from a specialist hundreds of miles away. But the effort to combat disease and illness requires greater cooperative efforts between our two nations. It is a simple truth that disease knows no boundaries. An outbreak of drug-resistant tuberculosis, for example, endangers citizens of both our nations.
Legislation authored by border legislators Pat Haggerty and Eddie Lucio establishes an important study that will look at the feasibility of bi-national health insurance. This study recognizes that the Mexican and U.S. sides of the border compose one region, and we must address health care problems throughout that region. Thats why I am also excited that Texas Secretary of State Henry Cuellar is working on an initiative that could extend the benefits of telemedicine to individuals living on the Mexican side of the border.

Bachmann knows she can only be Romney’s VP, no one elses, and certainly not the nominee. That’s why you won’t see her attacking Romney. And of course, Romney has no reason to attack her, since she’s going nowhere fast. Romney was the “presumed nominee”. Now, with Perry, that title is gone. Romney, who is congenitally capable of saying anything on any issue at any time, is just trying to get his title back.

But, for the rest of us, Perry needs to explain his support for in-state tuition for ILLEGAL ALIENS in Texas.
To: cripplecreek
Nothing of the sort was passed and I don’t see where it is stated that this pilot program was going to make residents of Texas pay for residents of Mexico.
All that was being suggested is that we could share medical records across the border via technology.

Right. Romney is a nonstarter and completely unacceptable. As you know, I’m also waiting for Sarah Palin. She’ll own the news tomorrow and likely the next day too.

Yeah whatever. It wasn’t for a lack of trying.
The followers of Rickstianity have yet to find one liberal thing they can’t swallow.

You’re right. And that’s what the debates are for. In the meantime, I support what he’s done in Texas and what he promises to repeat nationwide.

It’s quite possible Romney cannot get all the necessary work done in that remodeling job WITHOUT using about 3/4 illegals ~ particularly journeyman stonemasons who slip over from TJ city to do exactly that work.

All Perry did was allow children of illegals, who were legal residents of Texas to take advantage of the same instate tuition rates that Texas residents get.
They still pay out of their own pockets.
