SARAH PALIN HONORING AMERICA AT A 911 MEMORIAL CEREMONY
OBAMA DISHONORS AMERICA ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL
'nuff said.
OBAMA IS A MARXIST IDEOLOGUE
Posted on 11/12/2009 9:35:15 AM PST by Danae
For those who have been waiting for some sort of Official confirmation that the Administration of Barack Obama is deliberately forcing America down the path towards Socialism, please watch this video.
The Administration is not playing above board with America or American citizens.

No kidding. Where have you been Governor?
If folks don’t out of their recliners and walk the streets in protest very soon, we will cease being a nation of liberty & personal freedom.
'nuff said.
Hey Rick, what is your plan for the State of Texas? Will you allow us to become submerged in in this socialistic waste or are you contemplating the creation of a Republic of Greater Texas?
He obviously wants to contrast himself with KBH so I'm unsure if this is political posturing or if he really might be serious about fighting Washington.
Perry is locked in a primary and needs to get the Texas GOP base on his side.
Not saying he doesn’t believe what he says, but his path to renomination against Hutchison is by securing the conservative base.
What Perry says about what the Administration is doing with Illegal Aliens in Presidio Texas.... as the Gov says, you do the math: Chihuahuan desert or recross the river and go back to Presidio? A town of 4500 people that can’t handle 92 Illegals a day flooding it. Do the math on that... thats gonna double the population of Presido. And the Administration didn’t even TELL Texas officials that it was going to happen.
Don’t fool yourself. He held up his finger and saw which way the wind was blowing this week. Next week he’ll abandon this and go in another direction. Though with KBH breathing down his neck, he’ll be more prone to lean conservative but when no one is watching he’ll fall back to his liberal agenda.
No one ever said Perry was stupid, but he ain’t that Conservative. He doesn’t have to be the most Conservative politician in the country, just a little more Conservative than KBH.
I always figured he was a consistent conservative.
Is there something I’m missing? And please don’t bring up that vaccine thing.
He grows a set now, where were you last year gov?
I can explain it in two words: Trans-Texas Corridor. The largest proposed use of eminent domain in the history of the USA. It’s a lot of things, but it ain’t conservative by any means, and it’s Perry’s baby.
Perry making his every fourth year election swing around Texas promoting conservatism. If like in the past it won’t last long and he’ll find something else to promote following his examples of the past: TransTexas Corridor, Foreign owned toll roads, forced Innoculation of female children, etc. etc.
You did notice that Gov. Good-hair didn’t TELL Texas how he was going to stop illegals from polluting Presidio. No mention of Texas National Guard. No mention of more Border Patrol. No mention of Texas Rangers. No mention of allowing local LE ask about legal status. Oh, yeah, and no mention that Austin, the capital of Texas, you know, where he signs bills and where he lives, is a sanctuary city.

He hasn’t grown any. They’re fake and will be removed at 7 pm on election day.
He’s pandering, as usual.
He speaks about the 10th Amendment rather seriously in that video.....
After reading the posts on this story of the folks who don’t care for Perry..I’m wondering why don’t you like him?
He’s the one calling out the administration. He doesn’t like what’s happening because it’s going to devestate our state - which is doing better economically than EVERY OTHER STATE in the country.
I’m not hearing other governors speaking out like Perry is.
I think he’s got guts. We need to keep KBH in DC because we need her up there. Her running against Perry is a mistake and could split the conservative vote and we may end up with a Democrat in the governors mansion if we are not careful.
In other news, water is wet.
lol
Trans-Texas Corridor. That’s all they got.
Mind you, it’s a big thing among Texas landowners (of which I am one on a small scale.)
But it’s all they got.
“Austin, the capital of Texas, you know, where he signs bills and where he lives, is a sanctuary city.”
I agree with everyone of your statements about Perry, however I would blame the city council and Mayor Will Wynn on Austin being a sanctuary city.
"You can go to hell. I'm going to Texas." Davy Crockett.
From the Austin Unamerican Statesman’s article on this:
“Grissom wrote, “The plan will bring two buses per day to Texas, each with 74 undocumented immigrants. The immigrants will be checked for health problems and will have signed voluntary deportation agreements. The program will not involve immigrants charged with criminal violations, Brooks said. Mexican officials are participating and will provide the immigrants with bus tickets to their hometowns, Brooks said.”
Advocates for the program say the point of transferring the immigrants from Arizona to Texas is to breaking the smuggling cycle that allowed them to enter in the first place, Robert Gilbert, the Tucson sector chief for the U.S. Border Patrol, wrote in a January op-ed. He wrote that in 2008 (during the Bush administration), more than 10,000 illegal immigrants were removed through the program (although it did not go through Texas then). Gilbert wrote, “The largest impact can only be made by breaking the smuggling cycle, by putting up barriers and checkpoints that make the business of smuggling humans and narcotics unprofitable and unattractive. Only as the smuggling cycle is disrupted do we see consistent decreases in arrests and increases in drug seizures.””
Perry definitely was leaving out a few details in that campaign speech.
Excuse me, does that mean they won’t be checked for infectious diseases until they’re inside Texas? If Perry wanted to stop this, then post the Texas National Guard at the Arizona border and not let them in.
As if a whispered word here and there wouldn’t have the city’s policy changed toot sweet.
You sir are correct but there are some single issue idiots that have nothing to do but post derogatory messages about Governor Perry. Trust me there are a majority of Texans who support him 100%. KBH needs to stay home and raise those kids she adopted a few years ago....
I’m willing to give him a 3rd chance (after the TTC and the forced HPV vaccine fiascos) simply because I believe he will be personally opportunitic in a direction that is favorable to Texas.

This made Politico as well. Thats where I first saw an article on it.
Actually, IIRC, he did want to deploy the Texas National Guard but the Feds nixed that idea. Texas does not employ Border Patrol, that’s Fed jurisdiction. The Rangers do not have enough men to form a serious border patrol. Local LE can and does ask about immigration status already, depending on the local government.
He also has no control over the Austin city government. What most people don’t realize is that in Texas, the governor’s position is deliberately weak. The most he could do is call special sessions of the Legislature on one specific issue or another.
That’s my thought as well - he wants to be President, but since there’s not a chance in hell he will get to be President of the US, he’ll probably settle for President of the Republic of Texas.
Fine with me. I’ll take “doing the right thing for the wrong reasons” for $500, Alex.
It won’t. Ann Richards, the queen Dem herself at the time, couldn’t get Austin city gov to change it.
OK, Rick…You’ve just thrown down the gauntlet…By the way, welcome to the party…
Now…Just a bit of advice…You better be serious about this, you’d better be prepared to lead us down a path which is going to please a lot of people, then again it is going to make a few folks mad…Deal with it, or get out of the way…
Also…Nice haircut!!!
And about that Federal illegal alien re-distribution program??? Guess what…Deploy our National Guard on the border, orders and ROE clearly defined and implemented…And I bet you a dollar to a donut hole when you stop the first bus coming from Arizona to drop off the illegals down in El Paso or Laredo…Either have the Texas Rangers turn them around out of professional courtesy to the officers on that bus with them, or arrest the whole lot…I bet that will send the right kind of message to those that want to re-distribute wealth, healthcare and now illegal aliens…
Transportation of illegal aliens in, and into or through, the state of Texas is a felony last time I looked…
You get one crack at this…
Don’t force me to make a phone call…
***post the Texas National Guard at the Arizona border and not let them in.***
Texas shares a border with New Mexico, not Arizona.
I think people not familiar with Texas politics think Perry is very conservative.
There are many conservatives in Texas that don’t like or trust Perry.
pssssssst, New Mexico...
[on the down low brother...]
You may not understand the situation, but KBH is leaving D.C. regardless of whether she become governor. She may be helping a Democrat, Mayor White of Houston, succeed her. Supposedly only White knows exactly when KBH is stepping down. TX may be ready for a return to Democrat Senate representation. I hope NOT.
So....
What’s he going to do about it?
Has he signed his State Sovereignty Declaraction yet?
He is not much of a conservative, but he’s all we have. Still, I may vote for Debra Medina in the primary, not that it would matter in the least.
I have heard several say that Austin now has a majority of non-Texans.
If you want liberals and freeloaders (also liberals, but the sheep type) out of your state,
you have to do two things -
1) stop any and all handouts
2) make it impossible for anyone in gov’t to run someone else’s life.
1 is obvious, but 2 is where the real purge happens. Liberal elitists won’t stick around when they can’t be busybodies and impose their “superior” “for your own good” ideas on everyone else.
Fine with me. I’ll take “doing the right thing for the wrong reasons” for $500, Alex.
Right on, right on, right on...
It’s not like the politics of Austin were any different then they were nearly-all-Texans after WW2.
IIRC, he doesn’t have the power to do so under the Texas Constitution. That power is reserved to the Legislature.
He did, however, already endorse the Texas House’s resolution, HCR50: http://governor.state.tx.us/news/press-release/12227/
Unfortunately, the Texas Senate chose not to take up the matter. http://www.legis.state.tx.us/BillLookup/history.aspx?LegSess=81R&Bill=HCR50
And the Legislature is currently recessed until 2011 unless Perry calls a special session.
That’s actually what I meant, that he’s urged the legislature to send something to him to sign.
From my understanding of what happened in the Senate,
some affirmative action hire used a procedural move
to keep it from coming to the floor this session,
and of course brought up the specter of racism wrt states’ rights.
Yup. He wanted something to sign, and some idiot in the Senate stalled it instead. With luck that particular idiot will be out of office after this.
“As if a whispered word here and there wouldn’t have the city’s policy changed toot sweet.”
In Liberal Austin, ANYTHING uttered by a politician with an R next to his name is met by cries of fascist or nazi.
Sarah Palin could go door to door in Austin proclaiming an asteroid is about to the city and the lefties would rather die in their homes than admit that Palin is correct.
