Not a fan of Perry, but he could truly reply. OK, here we are on the border of a country we are trying to prop up, but which is descending into a new Afghanistan. We are being inundated by millions of Mexicans et al. who are fleeing from the turmoil, and by the way there are millions of others just passing through. The federal government is doing almost nothing to discourage this, and in fact is telling us, feed, clothe , house schools and medically treat these guys, And Oh, yes we will pick up 10% of the cost. Meanwhile we have managed to keep our economy afloat and in fact have picked up a lot of new businesses in a seesaw economy for the past fifteen years. So, if you think you can do better, have at it!
Perry has to be extraordinarily dumb NOT to know the so-called "drug wars" are being orchestrated by salivating Mexicans---to get their greedy hands on more and more US tax dollars.
So-called "drug wars" did not heat up until Congress passed The Merida Initative---which rains down millions on Mexico "to fight the drug wars. "
The "drug wars" facilitate millions of illegals to pour over the border claiming "asylum---which gets them a special SS benefit. Mexico trains their citizens how to collect----b/c illegals are Mexico's "voting bloc"----here to pressure vote-crazed Congressman for more and more US tax dollars.
==================================================
Perry says the feds won't help him----but this con artist fails to say HE is in control of the state's Ntl Guard---Perry himself can send as many NG as he wishes to control the border........but he won't. And we should ask why.
Texas Freepers report several drug cartels operate openly in Texas unimpeded by Texas L/E. La Familia is in Austin not far from the state house, and the savage Los Zetas operate their distribution center in Dallas.....beheadings are the Zetas signature savagery.
Perry has done nothing to stop this.
