Nope, but it’s a biggie.

He knows the issue is more nuanced - like his support for in-state tuition for children of illegal immigrants.

First of all, that sentence doesn't really make sense, or it doesn't say what the writer probably thought it did. And "nuanced" here means what?

This looks a lot like misdirection. They aren't interested in stopping illegal immigration, so they point to ways to make illegals happier as a way of stopping the flow, as if that would do the job.

I don't know what to think of Rick Perry, but some of his supporters -- like this paper -- are downright repellent.

Sorry, I was late in seeing your post.

I do not believe or support Affirmative Action at all for anyone.

I feel the same today as I did in 2011.

You’ve got to stop the bleeding and that means securing the border.

Give it a rest and quit wasting FR bandwidth pimping Perry. It isn’t gonna fly. Perry is a La Raza stooge and a liberal republican statist.

Rick Perry is far from the worst governor that Texas every had and was probably even one of the better ones. He would certainly have made a far better president than what we have now.

But he shares a fatal flaw with his fellow Texan George E. Bush: love of open borders and more affection for illegal aliens than American citizens.

Israel likes their wall, thank you very much.

Perry isn’t a mushy lib. He’s just, well, mushy.

Amen to that.

I understand that some places cannot be fenced - that is where remote monitoring and rapid response (Heliborne?) teams are required. Common sense tells you that there has to be a multi-faceted response to border security.

What I can’t abide is someone who says it’s too hard, so we simply can’t do it. My response to that is ‘Hogwash’.

While amnesty does need to be stopped, I don’t see it as our primary and immediate problem.

The simple fact is that for as long as the border is unsecured, illegals are giving themselves amnesty by simply walking back in if deported.

We’re trying to cure the disease as the patient bleeds to death.

Exactly that’s how to do it.
We already have a pattern. A sample of how to do the fence. Just copy what the Israelis have done. Its 95-99% effective.
Let those in jai learn how to dig with shovels, pour concrete and install fencing.
