PERRY PREPARES TO DEPLOY NATIONAL GUARD TO PORTION OF BORDER

MCALLEN, Texas—Texas media outlets are reporting Texas Governor Rick Perry is preparing to deploy the Texas National Guard to portions of the Texas/Mexico border.

State Senator Juan “Chuy” Hinojosa (D-McAllen) confirmed the pending announcement of Perry’s decision to deploy 1,000 soldiers from the Texas National Guard to the border. The goal of the guard deployment is to bolster the work of the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) State Troopers, according to Jennifer Saenz, a spokesperson for Sen. Hinojosa.

"The senator understands that Perry wants this troop build-up, but is not sure what kind of federal approval he needs for it. He just knows he wants to deploy 1,000 troops there," Saenz said in an article posted on the Houston Chronicle.

This is still a cheaper solution that what Obamay is proposing.

We should have Apache and Blackhawk helicopters there in place to shoot anything that crosses the border. This is a war against the drug cartels.

He needs to authorize the use of deadly force, kill a few of the illegals and watch them stop climbing the fence!
