You mean Rick Perry, who largely agrees with Obama on this issue? The one who lauded Texas' "Dream Act?" The one who would not push the last legislature, which had overwhelming Republican majorities, to pass even a measly anti-santuary cities bill? THAT Perry?
Perry HATES OBAMA! and visa versa
No the one who is/has dealing with the immigration problem w/no help from barry. Perry, the one who the sheriff is supporting. You are thinking of mitt who is barry’s counterpart - big mouth, big gov’t mitt. Keep our enemy, mitt, separate from decent candidates. You want to trash anyone - trash mitt and barry. It’s the liberal media’s job and GOP elite to trash Perry and Newt.

Gov. Rick Perry added a ban on sanctuary cities to the special-session agenda, making real one of Democrats biggest worries about the overtime session....
Republicans werent able to pass the legislation in regular session because of a rule generally requiring a two-thirds vote in the Senate to consider legislation.
As passed by the House in the regular session, the legislation would ban local governments from prohibiting law enforcement officers from inquiring into the immigration status of people they detain.
Texas owes it to the brave law enforcement officials, who put their lives on the line every day to protect our families and communities, to give them the discretion they need to adequately do their jobs, Perry said in a statement.
Perry specifically added issuance of drivers licenses and personal identification certificates, along with use of the federal Secure Communities program by law enforcement agencies, to the special-session call.cates to the special session call.
Abolishing sanctuary cities in Texas, using the federal Secure Communities program and ensuring that only individuals who are here legally can obtain a valid Texas drivers license sends a clear message that Texas will not turn a blind eye to those breaking our laws, Perry said in a statement.
