I wonder how long til the DOJ sues.

It will be interesting if that actually happens.

Color me skeptical, but 2016 is just around the corner.

Every border state should be doing the same, enough is enough.

Still not close enough.

Still not close enough.

2014 is where the real meat is, IMO. The country's bacon has been saved because of House control for the past 3.5 years.

We all know this is a political gesture. 1K troops along 1K miles, is ineffective, to say the least. HOWEVER If and when the DOJ, and or Obama speak, up saying it is not the states responsibility to patrol the border. It gives R's more fodder coming closer to November.
We all know both sides of the aisle could care less about illegals, Dems for the votes, R's for the workers.

Perry has been governor for what, 14 years? About damn time. What took you so long?

Not excited until he gives them the go ahead to start shooting the invaders. Our country is being invaded, if we are paying for lazy asses to not work, then we have enough people.

The part I liked was where he was talking about having the federal government foot the bill for it since they should be doing the job anyways.

Yeah...but Perry's not interested in running for the US house. He's interested in running for president.

Unless the pics of Hillary going down on Monica surface, fat chance.

And that would change things how?

No SH*T, can you imagine where we'd be today if we didn't have control in the House? Think about it. It certainly would have been a 'fundamentally changed' U.S.

Well ... it would give Hillary a spike up in a certain politically-powerful demographic ...

And even then it's still a thin thread thanks to half of them being RINOs (Boehner, Ryan, Turtle, [ex]Cantor)

I would laugh if this wasn't true. And every time someone says "well they [illegals] do the work no American wants to do," I want to just slap them and say "you assume they work in the first place..."

Glad I live in Texas. No income tax, to mag bans no wait times to purchase and a governor who may not be brilliant but carries and not afraid to protect citizens in his state.
