Rick Perry .. grandstand or dragged into it?
Personally, amid the Democrats (yes Bob we know the stats) claiming everything from Obama has doubled the number of border patrol agents, and exported more illegals than any other pres, and that Perry is simply (as was his OP-ED) laying the ground work and bona fides for 2016 it’s IMPOSSIBLE to guess what is in his heart on this one.
WHy did he say he is doing this?
Texas under siege? Well if you live anywhere near the border that COULD be true every day.
Illegal immigrant children living in squalor? CHECK. The USA has failed UTTERLY on this one. ‘WE’ in the person of the guy elected to be RESPONSIBLE for our INTERNATIONAL BORDERS, knew about this a year ago, and were warned. Excuses are simply ridiculous. Take the kids. Put them someplace nice. Find out who they are. Find out if any are TRULY in danger at home. Find out if they have ANY RESPONSIBLE CITIZEN HERE, WILLING AND ABLE to assume 100% financial responsibility for them for 5 years, and or otherwise SEND THEM HOME.
The troops could detain people if asked, Texas Adjutant General John Nichols said at the press conference with Perry, but they are planning to play a “referring and deterring” role by deterring cartels with their visible presence and referring any immigrants suspected of being in the country illegally to DPS.
THAT sounds good. Yesterday, a waterborne patrol of the Border Patrol was attacked with automatic weapons, and a Univision host recently crossed illegally in EIGHT FRICKIN SECONDS. I’m glad he did that as it illustrates the issue (but we shoul dhave been able to nail him and trade him for a certain US SERVICE PERSON who also IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY. Of course, the lesson is that we could not nail this guy, and did not.
A state memo obtained by the McAllen Monitor, which first reported Perry’s plan to deploy the National Guard, indicated the new efforts will cost the state of Texas $12 million per month.Perry said he expects the federal government to eventually reimburse the state of Texas for the costs it has incurred protecting the southern border.White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said prior to Perry’s announcement that the administration has not yet received the formal request from Perry to activate the troops, but he downplayed it as a merely a symbolic measure.
That will be interesting when they send that invoice over, won’t it?
Well we know there are more Border Patrol people, but the effort is ineffective. I believe Obama HAS deported more than any other prez, but WAY MORE have arrived, and WAY MORE have stayed.
So I think Perry executed this (TEMPORARY) solution for real. 1,000 National Guardsmen are not sealing the border, but they MAY be a deterrent to organized invasion if the people tactically in charge are smart.
It may help him in 2016, IF he runs IF this is effective.
Those are BIG IF’s and if this IS a grandstand Perry is REALLY rolling some big dice.
But that’s NOT true if in his heart he is really worried about Texas.
