The point, best I can tell, is to fool the masses into believing Rick Perry actually opposes the ILLEGAL invasion and is attempting to do something about it. From some of the comments I have read in this forum, it has, at least to some degree, been effective.
When I parsed the verbiage being used when this was announced a few days ago, I labeled it 100 Proof Texas Longhorn Male Bovine Feces. I didn’t think he’d actually SEND the Guard to the Border.
But now I see it’s even WORSE than that. He’s sending the Guard, but it will result in merely the pi$$ing away of a ton of taxpayer money by saddling the Troops with assinine rules of non-engagement.
