With Obamas call for an illegal alien parasite invasion, Texas being ground zero. The thought of turning Texas Blue, Rick Perry is shipping the illegals to Blue states! New York, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, California. They were released in Arizona for a food break, on their way to California and word got out.

Spot on Rick! Good call.

The City of Austin, has called for the Travis County Sheriff, to stop collecting the illegals from the city jail.
The End Sanctuary Cities Bill, is coming to the State Legislature, in the next session.

States may not be able to send them back to the nation of origin, but they can disperse them to the Blue states that are begging them to come here.

To keep Texas red, they gerrymandered the state.

Ya, it should be, or you would think the lines would be county lines.
If they did that, it would be better representation of the constituents.
Makes the case for a red House and a blue Senate and Presidency.

Huh? So you are in favor of gerrymandering to get a political advantage? Texas is an urban state now, but has been gerrymandered to favor rural conservatives in order to keep it red for a little bit longer.

No it's not.

Texas is #1 for livestock and also #2 for agricultural products.

Those cows ain't living in lofts on 6th street in Austin

The liberal folks stick to the cities along I-35.

Rick Perry is not shipping the illegals to Blue states.
The federal government is releasing illegals because they don't have the funding or facilities to detain them, and because of of Bush legislation that says we don't return children to non-adjacent countries.

Well the Dems must like the laws because in 5.5 years they haven't been changed.
Besides Pelosi just said that they are Americans too.

He needs to ship them all to Nancy Pelosi's district also known as Obama's favorite go-to location for speeches and campaign donations.

I understand it is the feds that choose where the illegals are transferred, not the state of Texas.

They city of Austin did pass a resolution, asking the Travis County sheriff to ignore the ICE Secure Communities program. The sheriff has no plans to change what Travis County does.

Sorry to burst you bubble but 3 out 4 Texans live in San Antonio, Austin, Houston, and DFW. That's the definition of being an urban state.
