What are they going to do and how?

What are their orders?

Kind of hard to keep something like this action secret. Requires too much coordination, too many people and resources involved and Perry can’t commit to spending this much tax payer money without involvement of others.

Amen, Amy, amen. You and me both - wish I could be there, too.

Our Vets, our children, always first, you're absolutely right!

Agree with you in hoping he stands his ground. As far as I'm concerned,
after this, he moves to the White House for 8 years beginning in 2016.

I do and I think it is because we gave them to much power for 30 years.

Hate to say this but Nancy Reagans BS war on drugs gave rise to the DEA and The DEA gave rise to the cartels.

These guys are viscous now.

LOOK WHAT IS GOING ON

This current invasion is the drug cartels pulling in 2 year old mules

Want the best dope in town?

Ask a DEA ahole or a cop

It’s human nature folks, power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Obama can Federalize the troops...and the Fed government pays.

This will cost Texas 12 million a month...and I'm sure that Obama is just gleeful at that. Obama's trying to break Perry and Texas. The Dems don't want Perry as a candidate for 2016.

In other words, at this point, Texas got set up. They sure as hell can't stop Homeland Security for escorting this illegals.

They will not be armed.

Washington is giving these people the green light.

God Bless Rick Perry and the state of TX for stemming the flow.

Learn the Constitution, when the Oath of POTUS fails, Obama has no power.
Perry and every state in the union now has the power to Shut that border down
and take matters in their own hands.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woot, finally something is going to be done! Maybe it's a modest start, but it is a start.

Pres. Obama has been criticized for declining to send Nat’l Guard troops to patrol/guard the increasing mythical land border between U.S.A. Mexico. I thought Nat’l Guard was under control of state governors, who, at their discretion, could accede to a presidential request to place the troops under presidential control.
Pres. GW Bush could not take control of LA Nat’l Guard during the Katrina debacle until the feckless Governor signed the required release. Bush, of course, was faulted.

“This will cost Texas 12 million a month”

I’d say at least 3/4 of the state population would gladly help out and send one dollar to the fund each month. That would cover the costs.

The State of Texas needs to set up a donation box. Funding problem solved.

The States have the power and authority to arrest any DHS agent for treason.
Aiding and abetting the invaders Armed or Not, is very real.

Do not forget that the Governor is a Federal elected agent.

I hope all the Republicans in the House and Senate rise up and go after Obama to Federalize the troops. Texas shouldn't have to pick up the tab for a Federal Border.

That 3.7 billion that Obama wants has almost "0" for border security.

Call it what you want....3.7 billion is buying a lot of votes...for the Dems.
