MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry says he opposes a fence along the U.S. border with Mexico.
Speaking to hundreds of New Hampshire voters at a private reception Saturday afternoon, the Texas governor says a fence would be ineffective and take too long to build.
The comments, which produced one angry shout, expose a rift with some conservative voters over Perry's immigration record. Tea party activists in Texas have been particularly upset by his steady opposition to the fence. He also signed a law giving illegal immigrants in-state tuition for Texas universities.

We need land mines on the border. Not a fence. Land mines. Word will get out quickly and we will see an end to the problem.

For voters who want Shamnesty, open borders, more free schooling, medical care and other handouts for illegals - Perry is the man to vote for.

I oppose a fence too. Too expensive and will not work. Hell, illegals would end up working on it.

and take too long to build.If the fence had been started when liberals started using that excuse for inaction the fence would already be finished.
Bring V Corp home! Give them the mission of securing the border. Shouldn't take more than a month.

Why does NH, RINO ville, get the first shot? Until that changes, nothing changes.

The Fix is in, its either open borders with Perry or open borders with Hussein.

What the anti-Perry people don’t tell you is the rest of the story, that Perry wants “boots on the ground”, National Guard troops on the border, because that is more effective than a fence.
