Rick Perry Wants the Feds to Reimburse Texas for Securing the Border
Notable quote: "Those who come must be sent back to demonstrate," that the journey isn't worth it, Perry said. America, he added, needs to send a message that "you cannot come to the United States just because someone is handing out a flyer."
Does this not strike anybody else as incredibly antithetical to what America has seemingly always stood for, the 'land of opportunity'?
Rick Perry is a complete moron.

It is the historic position of the American electorate. In the 19th century they didn't want Italian or Irish Catholics to immigrate and now they don't want Mexican Catholics to do the same.
150 years ago a tea party styled party tore the Whig party apart based largely on immigration, the same way the tea party is dog ng the same to the GOP now.
Foreigners are scary.
