Texas and the illegal immigrants

Why doesn't Governor Rick Perry call out the state's National Guard to protect the state's border?

That would get the Commander in Chief's attention.

Seriously, if the guy wants to be President start acting like one and direct the National Guard

    My guess on why?? Because he wants to relate to the "moderates" and is scared to offend the Hispanic vote just like all the other milk toast republicans.

    BHO would direct Holder to place a lawsuit on the state of Texas for not complying with BHO's executive orders. I am talking about his executive orders for not enforcing federal immigration laws.

    Aside from registering the dead, BHO would never allow state governors of border states to stop the largest voter recruitment drive in socialist democrat party history.

    IMHO Perry has his sights set on running in 2016. He cannot gamble with ticking of the middle of the road voters and he needs the Hispanic vote in Texas. They are a fast growing segment of the voting base.

    Also he is looking short term for the GOV race in Texas. He is not running, but if he does something to tick off the Hispanic populace, you can bet that Wendy Davis will win.

    She thinks a lot like Clinton and the POTUS and I could see some infringement on 2A here. After all the seat of government in TX is in Austin and that place is chock full of Liberal idiots.

    I suspect that he is either a typical progressive or controlled by their kind, but who knows for sure.
    What's next?

    Perhaps he could "borrow the power" to enforce the boarder, since the Feds aren't going to use it.
    For the administration this is apparently acceptable.

    Good question...been asking that myself. He can call out the TX Guard as every Gov can do....must be a political reason for him not doing it. Cost perhaps? Him thinking he is going to run for POTUS in the near future and he doesn't want to make the Latino's angry? Easy to just blame it on BO but he does have it in his power to act...and not doing so is rather strange IMO.

    I would love to see TX call out the Guard.Then the DHS would be sent to arrest the Gov. There's the manufactured crisis the obidiot wants. Resulting in martial law and civil war he wants. It would not go as planned. Even Mao knew about 200 million rifles, although the number has increased some by now.

    For those of you who think that the illegals flooding this country are a threat to our security and the future of our country as we know it................now you know how the Palestinians have felt for the last 100 years as they have been forced to watch the flood of illegal Jewish immigrants forced on them.

    Interesting perspective.

    Let's see how many here are on board with your moral justification for shooting up a school bus full of Mexican children, or bombing a Mexican flee market.

    I am sure the Palestinians are JUST as fed up with providing FREE schooling, FREE health care, FREE food stamps, etc,etc,etc for those illegal JEW immigrants.

    When Israel was illegally created, Jews owned less than 3% of the land. After Battalion 502 and the Begin Irgun introduced terrorism to the unarmed Palestinian farmers and drove them from their property the Israeli government stole the land. As to bombings and murders.....entire Palestinian farming communities were put to death with the knife, hanged, buried alive or shot outright.

    I don't see what good it's going to do since they'll be required to turn them over to the Border Patrol. We all know where they're going after that.

    I thought the first stop of the border patrol after catching an illegal was to free health screening the second was voter registration

    Looks more and more like a PR stunt. Since the guard troops have to turn all those caught over to the border patrol one could view this as Perry aiding and abetting Obama.

    Most of them entered pre Israel Palestine illegally. The Jewish takeover and displacement of the non Jews was taking place from the end of the First World War on. Even Hitler remarked on the subject. When his generals balked at the invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1938 and warned of the Allied reaction to the invasion, he stated that no party would help the Czechs and he said " who is lifting a finger to help the poor bloody Palestinians ". After the illegal creation of the Israeli Soviet the immigrants with a liberal sprinkling of hard core Communists continued to pour in.
