Perry's position on border control varies little or none from the positions of George W. Bush and Juan McCain, both of whom insisted that they didn't support open borders or amnesty either.

I'm sure it is all nuanced and the rest of us are just dumb rednecks who can't understand.

Why should you sit in your ivory towers and expect the four border states to protect your sorry arses?

I'm sure it is all nuanced and the rest of us are just dumb rednecks who can't understand.

You won't get an argument on that from me, Bubba!

From the 1982 Supreme Court Ruling that illegals attend Texas public schools free.

Access from Mexico into this country, across our 2,000-mile border, is readily available and virtually uncontrollable. Illegal aliens are attracted by our employment opportunities, and perhaps by other benefits as well. This is a problem of serious national proportions, as the Attorney General recently has recognized. See ante, at 218-219, n. 17. Perhaps because of the intractability of the problem, Congress — vested by the Constitution with the responsibility of protecting our borders and legislating with respect to aliens — has not provided effective leadership in dealing with this problem.[1] It therefore is certain that illegal aliens will continue to enter the United States and, as the record makes clear, an unknown percentage of them will remain here. I agree with the Court that their children should not be left on the streets uneducated.

That was written in 1982--30 years ago!-- and you want to hold Bush and Perry accountable? LOL! Yes, that is pure ignorance! And it shouldn't be the job of the Alabama governor or Gov. Jan Brewer either!

McCain might have done something...if he was a senator then. He's had plenty of time sense!

The people who blame Perry for the open border and illegal immigrant problem would do better to put pressure on their own congressmen to secure the border. It is NOT the job of the four border states to control the Mexican border. Congressmen from the 50 states are neglecting their duty...not the guvs of the 4 border states.

The bottom line is people in the other 46 states haven't cared until it started to affect them and now they want to bitch and blame the border states!

Why don't y'all do your part instead of bitching and blaming?

Oh! I forgot. You said it, the rest of us are just dumb rednecks who can't understand.

And you prove it again and again!

No comprehende!
