Houston (CBS HOUSTON) – Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, has joined Texas Gov. Rick Perry in calling on President Barack Obama to visit the Mexican border personally, with Cruz sending Obama actual directions to the border from the president’s planned fundraiser stops in Austin and Dallas.
Cruz took to Twitter to invite Obama to take a look at the border itself amid a growing immigration crisis along the southern border with Mexico.
“If President Obama wants to have a real border meeting with @GovernorPerry, here are a couple suggested detours,” Cruz tweeted on Tuesday.
The maps show driving routes from Austin to the border town of Laredo (235 miles, 3 hours) and Dallas to border town McAllen (506 miles, 7 hours and 29 minutes).
Perry also took to Twitter last week to invite President Obama to the border.

EXCELLENT
Cruz is my favorite right now. Would LOVE to see him debate any leading Democrat toe to toe for an hour or two.
Cruz FTW!
The Cruz critics are out?
would not last that long...
the rat would walk out.
Everything's a lie. You don't board them on planes and send them all over the country to make them disappear. You corral them at the border.
Please Ted, stop picking on our first... POTUS.
Obama is too tied up with critical fundraising trips and playing golf to go down there. These are numo one priority.
If something important happens he will see it on his satellite TV channel on his AF1 luxury jet, and be as surprised and as outraged as we are about it..
He is just like us, except he has that big jet, and Navy officer medical care, and SS armed protection, but otherwise...
I like Cruz more and more. He gets his point across and has a sense of humor. Go Texas!
That’s RACIST!
How dare anyone bait the Current Occupant this way? Are they trying to make him look INSENSITIVE?
Damned right, but nobody even has to try very hard.
Cruz is so clever....love it!
Pure wit and sarcasm, will go right over obama’s head, and there is no one in the admin who can explain it to him.
Actually, the man is not stupid, just so full of—himself—that ridicule and sarcasm are the best means to really get under his skin, and let him show his ass!
No, actually, not knowing who you are and your limitations, is quite stupid!
