Does this governor-elect have any teeth in his words or is it all political tongue wagging?
In an interview, Gov.-elect Greg Abbott, the current attorney general, said Texas Obama’s frequent vows to invoke questionable executive power to change immigration law have forced Texans to prepare for yet another “surge” of illegals crossing from the south.
Texas has shouldered considerable expense dealing with the problem of illegal immigration that’s being worsened by the White House, Abbott said, and one horn of any lawsuit would be getting the federal government to pay for problems it’s causing.
But he said the larger point is that immigration laws are made by the country from Capitol Hill, not the White House.
“We’re expecting the White House will not cross the line,” he said. “If the president crosses the line, he’s going to see an overwhelming rejection of what he’s trying to do.”
Since congress won’t do anything themselves, Obama has too. What a stupid suggestion, to shut down the Government again. Didn’t work last time. Why would it work now. The Republicans are just wasting our money n getting nothing done just because they don’t like a black President. Grow up.
Yes its all Cuz he’s black Cheri Cox lmao where have you been, under a rock ? He’s destroyed America almost.. Color ain’t got anything to do with this at all.
That thing is scary!
No, Abbott will fire with both barrels.
It’s your border Governor, what are you going to do except blame the feds
Cheri Cox go learn something about the constitution…and get a clue. Republicans would love to have a black president and will probably run one. At least try to make an argument with an ounce of credibility. Good grief.
As Trey gowdy said have you met Joe Biden? So we are stuck with 2 bad apples in office and impeachment is not an option! But my guy in Greg Abbott means what he says and does what he says!
Abbott’s just another totally corrupt Texas politician, just like Rick Perry who’s on his way to prison and George W. Bush before him. http://www.politicususa.com/2014/09/30/greg-abbotts-shady-relationship-texas-enterprise-fund-cost-taxpayers-222-million.html
Marcus. Color has everything to do with it. When Republicans or Democrats are elected to Congress, its because we expect them to do their job for us. Not sit on their backsides n do nothing except rake in huge salaries n benefits.
He is such an f’n liar! No Texas governor has ever had any impact on illegal immigration. All they’ve done is benefit from collecting illegal state taxes on booze brought back from Mexico by Texans.
