Texas, Arizona Governors Not Happy With Obama’s Border Plan
Written By : William Teach

Once again, Los Federales are nickle and diming the security of our nation. Bush was disappointing, and Obama has continued this alarming trend

The Texas and Arizona governors criticized the Obama administration’s border security plans Monday, saying not enough National Guard troops are being deployed to their states.

“What we heard wasn’t anything what we hoped to hear,” Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer told reporters after a 90-minute briefing by federal officials sent by President Obama.

Texas Gov. Rick Perry, a Republican like Brewer, said the deployment to his state was “insufficient to meet the needs of securing the Texas-Mexico border.”

A White House statement said plans to deploy 1,200 additional National Guard soldiers along the U.S.-Mexico border would “complement the unprecedented resources and additional efforts already devoted by this administration to securing the Southwest border.”

They can talk about “unprecedented” all they want, the fact is, our southern border is not being secured properly, which is why Arizona had to pass that law, and many other states are considering doing the same. Including non-border states.

Of course, the #1 idea is still to go after those who employ illegals mucho hard. No jobs, most will leave or not come. Then we can deal with the really bad ones, and look towards real lawful and legal immigration reform.

The federal team was led by John Brennan, a national security adviser whom Goddard said has the job of evaluating “the whole picture.”

“He never said this is all,” Goddard said. “He said this is what we’re going to do right now.”

So, they are doing it piecemeal. Funny how they want to wrap up a comprehensive immigration reform law, but, when it actually comes to securing the border, they’ll get around to it.

Anyhow, read the whole article.

    The Federal Government is now putting up signs declaring areas 30 miles outside of Tucson too dangerous for Americans to enter – something it did not feel necessary to do even during the height of the Indian Wars during the Wild West Days!

    Forget the Wild West – Obama is busily converting whole regions of America into Forbidden Zones, a new Dark Continent off-limits to our citizenry.

    Great Job, Liberals! Your vision of the destruction of the country you have instinctively loathed all your miserable existence appears to be materializing faster than you would have dreamed a mere decade ago.

      At least in the Wild West Days, the Americans were armed and had a chance to defend themselves.

      Maybe that's the answer. Tell the Justice Department that the illegal aliens are carrying handguns in defiance of stated Liberal gun control policy.

        Doesn't everyone in Texass have the right to pack heat?

        • StanW

          If you have a CHL.

            Actually, one of the reasons I support Perry is over the Castle Law and how broad it reaches in Texas. Texas CCL is redundant, and not necessary.
            You're vehicle has the same protection as Castle Law and as such you can carry in your vehicle as long as the gun is concealed.
            Consequently by law this means transporting to and from your vehicle is legal.
            According to 2 CHL instructors and 3 SAPD officers I have talked with, this means as long as you are coming and going to and from your home or your vehicle you can carry. The only places you can not carry are businesses that make their money from alcohol sells and where the 30.06 signs are clearly posted at.
            My Virginia license is valid in Texas, my wife does not have a CCL yet, so I was pretty tickled to find out the Texas CCL has become redundant and she can carry with out a CCL.

          As does everyone in the other 56 states, according to the latest supreme court ruling (and the constitution).

    “…a Republican like Brewer…”
    “Goddard and Giffords are Democrats.”

    What did this have to do with the story? And why did they leave out the important part? The feds are sending $134 million to Arizona for border security but $310 MILLION TO MEXICO!

  • StanW

    Rick Perry might have some credibility on this issue if he had been this forceful about securing the border when Bush was President.

    Jan Brewer is 100% correct.

    • UFKA_Smithwick

      Yeah, I really hope this becomes a big issue next election and we get someone serious about securing the border. Not merely pandering to the popular sentiment of the moment.

        umm I think you are expecting too much. They will remain POLITICians after all.

    • Mr. EMT

      I'll cut Perry a little slack since I heard Texas does not have enough money in the budget to fend off the lawsuits it is afraid of getting over doing something as controversial as Arizona did by passing a law to enforce Federal Law.

      Seriously though, if a state is sued over a federal law, cant they pass that buck up the line to the fed?

      • Rose

        It's time to stand up and be counted. It ain't Texan to be a shrinking wallflower.

        Sir Winston Churchill: Still, if you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed, if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not so costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no chance of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.

  • UFKA_Smithwick

    Are Texas and Arizona on the border? I thought they were a ways removed from it.

    Take note moderates: the people most harmed by illegal immigration are very much opposed to the way Obama is handling it. Perhaps he doesn't have such a great plan afterall.

  • baoxian

    Yeah. The government could come up with $3 billion for Cash for Clunkers after it took over GM and handed Chrysler to the unions, but Border Security? Oh, no! Wait! Hold on! This is expensive and complicated! We can't possbily… Do you realize the magnitude of what you're asking for? We need a Federal Czar, committee, and nine months of study!

    A total shameless lie. These people have no credibility and absolutely no interest in protecting US citizens.

    • Rose

      Odrama Queen coughed up more than that to study the lifestyles of male prostitutes in CHINA!
      And a pretty sum for squirrel bridges in Arizona, which Arizona turned down.

  • Rose

    Rick Perry would have more credibility with an Arizona bill under his belt, signifying SOME measure of unity with the Texas GOP!

    He is shaming us before our Alamo defenders, and Tennessee.
