Does Rick Perry Have an Immigration Problem?
Yes, says Henry D'Andrea in the Washington Times. "Gov. Perry will undoubtedly run on his strong economic record in Texas. After all, 38% of all jobs created in the United States have been in Texas since the 'recovery.' However, what Rick Perry cannot run on is his very questionable, liberal immigration record."
"Do you want a president who offers in-state tuition to illegal immigrants and then goes to Mexico and brags about it? Absolutely not."
However, Perry made a strong statement about illegal immigration in Waterloo, Iowa, this week. "So you can't even have a conversation about an immigration policy until you first secure the border. That is the first issue that has to be addressed. And I will assure you of one thing, when I become the President of the United States, we will have our military, our National Guard until we get the Border Patrol trained up to have enough boots on the ground to secure that border."
