Perry has not stepped up to the plate. The hand full of guard soldiers he sent to the border a couple of years ago was nothing more than smoke a mirrors.
They primarily were tasked with clerical type duties.
Yet Perry gave the impression he was tough on border security.
Rainy day fund for teachers??? How bout a couple billion for border security and immigration enforcement.
Fewer illegals, less crime, decreased social welfare handed out...smaller state budget.
Perry's not done his job.
How would you have him pay to defend sovereign U.S. territory? We’re already knee deep in spending money we don’t have providing free medical care and education to hundreds of thousands of illegals (which the feds require). The feds need to step up to the plate.
