Not so.
Perry has spent hundreds of million of state dollars on border security-Texas Rangers. He wants boots on the ground, drones in the air and fencing in urban areas.
And he's asked the federal government to do their sworn duty to protect and defend the international border. Crickets.
Perry wants the border SEALED.
Perry does not believe in amnesty.
But then you knew all that.
The feds spent billions on a virtual fence that did nothing. Spending money means nothing if the actions taken do not lead to comprehensive enforcement, and a fence is a vital part of any such enforcement. That is what Perry and his supporters are unwilling to admit.
