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.”
They are illegal IMMIGRANTS as they are breaking the laws set in place for those immigrating LEGALLY. The law needs to be enforced, no matter WHO is crossing illegally, be it man, woman or child. There is no other nation that allows indiscriminate border crossings. Not one. Order has to be observed or chaos will ensue. Such as what is taking place now. Compassion has NOTHING to do with securing the borders and forcing those who wish to come here do so legally as thousands preceding them have done. We risk the future of America’s children in opening the borders regardless of sickness, past criminal history or simply the lack of enforcing laws already in place to remedy the situation occurring now. This administration sickens and distresses me as an American. An American who is watching this country swirl around the drain. Someone needs to step up to the plate or we go the way of Russia, Cuba and Venezuela with a dictator in place and two classes: the elite and the peasant. Wake the hell up, sheep.
Do it!
how just going for an impeachment and getting rid of Obama before he totally destroys the country.
Tracy, very well said. And we are also one of the only States that are self sufficient . We can survive and prosper without the Union.
Underestimate Greg Abbott–and Texas–at your extreme peril.
Our president is a racist a bigot and a traitor to this country and should not have ever been voted into a place of power in the United States but us stupid voters were afraid to be called racist and politically incorrect so we stupid voters voted him in twice and now are paying the ultimate price for our own stupidly. We have to put this sorry son of a bitch and married a bitch back in his place of no power. He will always be rich but he can’t buy what he wants because our freedom can’t be bought with money. It’s time we all stand up and kick his ass out of office.
We had to fight this issue with every tool available
So proud I am a Texan.
Oh he has teeth, the border states are who pays for this presidents ignorance.
Sue!!!!! Dumb ass that will take years. Get the ass out of the White House
