[Mr_Retired]

Gov. Rick Perry says he's deploying as many as 1,000 National Guard troops to the Texas-Mexico border after growing tied of "lip service" from the federal government.

Is it really that hard to enforce the laws we already have

For those who understand, no explanation is needed. For those who do not understand, no explanation is possible.

Not sure what he has planned at this point... right now it looks like surveillance. Did not indicate if he would work with the feds.

He asked for 1,000 National Guard troops - obviously was denied by the Administration.

It won't make any difference. We need a LOT more than that, and a federal government willing to enforce the law.

This is like trying to stop a dam from leaking by putting a wad of chewed bubble gum on a crack you could put your entire body through.

Long over do and it should started at the White House. I hope AZ follows as well as NM and CA.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the governor of a state have the authority and right to form a militia? I am pretty sure you could find several thousand volunteers in the state of Texas.

If the Guards do anything Obama doesn't approve of, Obama will nationalize them and take them out from under the Governor's control. This could be what Perry is wanting Obama to do though. That would further turn the people against Obama.

Obama and Holder just love to trample on states' rights and sadly, they have far too many left-wing activist judges who agree with them

Perry's been governor for 14 years and now all of a sudden he's concerned about illegal immigration? This coming from the same guy who supported and signed into law legislation that guarantees in-state tuition for illegal immigrants. Perry's talking out of both sides of his mouth again. Must be preparing for his next presidential fail.

He most probably is but if that's what it take, power to him. Obama certainly isn't going to do anything.
