In State tuition was passed by the Texas Legislature with a clearly veto proof majority. It was never a Perry program.
A fence would not work any better along the Ri Grande than it does across the barren deserts of kalifornia, Arizona or Neuvo Mexico. Never heard of many pro-fence Texans. Tell us how to put a break-proof fence in the middle of the Rio Grande and Texas will be for it too.
Border protection is the Fed’s job, under Perry Texas has spent $400M doing what we can with Texas feet on the ground while fighting the Feds day in day out.
Sanctuary Cities was not going to pass the Legislature, we have too many legal Mexican voters. Perry had no power to “make em” do it.
Perry can make people see that he will not permit his state to transform into Mexico City. Many Hispanics are waiting on him to do just this. it’s about the Institution of Cheap Labor. He screwed up because he cannot conceive of how pissed off people are about illegal immigration. IT CAN NO LONGER BE IGNORED!
Tell the Israeli’s that a fence doesnt work and maybe they will listen and tear their fence down. Of course the palistinians would never go back to killing Israeli citizens willy nilly again.

It was supported by Perry as Governor and he is leader of his party the - GOP -. Therefore it becomes “his” program like it or not vis a vis the GOP controlled Leg.

Border fences have proven to be fantastic force multipliers. Cases in point: The border fence separating East and West Germany. Israel built a border wall to partially separate it from the west bank. NOBODY does border security like the Israelis. Ask the Germans how mqany escaped from East to West Germany across the border. Damn few. There are millions of “pro-fence” Texans and many many more “pro-fence Americans”. Perry is anti-fence, as are a lot of RINO GOP Texas House members, because they are bought and paid for by their big bidness $$$$$ donors who want the steady flow of cheap labor. Illegals are big bidness in Texas. It means the difference between less profit and BIG profit for some like large home builders and restaurant chains. I get to subsidize their illegal alien employees health care and educating thier spawn a la my tax dollars.

Yes.. Immigration is the FED governments job. But, Perry could have backed Jan Brewer UNEQUIVOCALLY. Instead, he said: “An Arizona style immigration law wouldn’t
be right for Texas”. It sure was right for Alabama, and they are not even a border state!! Debbie Riddle - (R)-Tomball,TX proposed, as did Leo Berman (R) - Tyler, TX
some very tough immigration legislation in the last, lame azz sesion of the Texas legislature. Where did their bills go? Nowhere... thanks to Ricardo Perry and and his amigo house speaker Jose Straus. All squashed by bought and paid for, cheap labor lovin members of the Texas House. Oh and that 400 Mil you mentioned. Texas loses more that that in a week in paper clips. That’s a beard that Perry wears so that he can beat his chest about ALL that he’s done for border security. Perry deserves an oscar in kabuki theater
for that.

Perry had absolute power to get the Sanctuary City bill passed and the political stroke to do so, but let it die because of heavy pressure brought by a certain “large home-builder CEO” from Houston, who happens to be the biggest $$$$$ GOP donor in the State of Texas. Another large food store chain CEO added his big mouth to the party, and as if by magic, the bill died “before it could get voted on”. Damn!!! it hate when that happens. Texas House Speaker Jose Straus, undoubtedly, played a critical role here too, rolling some delaying tactics in the wee hours when it was all playing out.
Oh... and if the legal Hispanic citizens of Texas don’t mind illegal immigration, then I suppose then that they wouldn’t mind if 250K Chinese starting coming in this year.... because they will if you tell them to just get here and get a job and then they can stay. If we did that the hypocritical basterds at La Raza would be having fits about how “unfair” it is for Chinese to be taking jobs away from illegal Mexicans.
