Perry optimistic on fed immigration enforcement

May 3, 2010, 7:41PM

DALLAS — Gov. Rick Perry is praising the results of his immigration enforcement talks with Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano.

That's after a steady drumbeat of criticism from Perry about the federal approach toward those enforcement needs and fears that Mexico's drug-related violence might spill into the United States.

According to The Dallas Morning News, Perry told a Washington, D.C., round-table of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce on Monday that he has "a real good feeling" after his meeting with Napolitano, a former Arizona governor.

Perry says that Napolitano, as a former border governor, "gets it." He says, "The border can be secured. It takes boots on the ground. It requires technology."

Perry has appealed to the federal government for unmanned drone aircraft and National Guard troops to patrol the border.

shut the hell up Rick. you know damn well she doesnt get it and she doesnt want to get it because this administration doesnt want to get it.

AZ begged for more boots on the ground for months, only to be ignored and to see that harridan Napolitano lie on tv.."The border is more secure now..blah, blah, blah. Too little, too late.

LONG LIVE SB1070! Let's take it nationwide!

Rick Perry's stance on illegal alien trespassers, is the same as the guy he took over from.

He panders to the illegals and has for more than 9 years.

Where is Glen Beck when you need him?..........huh, Rick?

Sorry Texans..............I could not resist.

He comes up for election this year doesn't he?

We cannot have homeland security without border security. Under Gov. Perry, Texas has been a leader on border security while the federal government has faltered. Under his leadership, Texas has put more boots on the ground, more technology to use, and more targeted operations to dramatically reduce all crime along the border.

Surge Operations.
Transnational Gang Initiative.
Ranger Recon.

Napolitano gets it alright..she is just walking in lockstep with the OBL crowd. Plus, she's just an incompetent fool. Perry just pisses me off. He knows damn well what needs to be done and the fed calvary isn't coming to the rescue. States are on their own. Period. The sooner everyone figures this out the better. I will predict here and now that we will see growing violence all over the country from the illegal aliens and the OBL crowd. As one police chief in Maryland? proclaimed... "We can no longer protect our citizens so they should "arm themselves"...

If Napolitano agrees to any real enforcement, it will only be to try make amnesty palatable. This is why she has no credibility on this issue.

Just do enforcement alone.

Yup. It seems to me America is being set up, or pushed, coerced, prodded, poked, into demanding a total overhaul. The system is totally broken and now only the Washington gurus can save America.

Enforce the existing laws!

Perry, you are a big of a fraud as your pal Napolitano. Napolitano "gets it" yeah right. Napolitano did nothing when she was governor and is doing even less not that she is an Obama lackey. Your appeal to Napolitano is just an excuse to hide the fact that you are intentionally running a sanctuary state. You know as well as Nappy knows that no troops will be sent and the border will remain as wide open as it has since the day you took office. The only difference between you and Bill "sanctuary City" White is you talk out of both sides of you mouth while Bill White is at least honest about what he wants. I am starting to think at this point that honesty might be better than the dishonesty we have had out of your office the past decade.
