What Tx Gov Perry's major donors say about immigration

[johncoby2]

Texas is a pay to play state and Perry's major donors depend upon illegal immigrants for their cheap labor.

Take a minute to read an op-ed by Perry's major donors on immigration printed in the Dallas Morning News here: http://www.box.net/shared/djxcnpy7kq0ukvmbdcua

Here are some tidbits:

But few young Americans want to do hard physical labor, particularly in our climate.

Not only that, but immigrant workers renew and reinvigorate America. They remind us what it's like to give a job your all. We talk about old-fashioned family values; they live them.

These are good people with good values doing work that we need done, reaching for the American Dream and helping make it a reality for all.

1. Think about this. Good people with good values are those who...

... will do any shit work for slave wages.

2. This is one way he really is Rick W. Perry

I guess it comes with the territory when you're talking Texas money and politics. Reason #4080 we'll see strange bedfellows once the immigration debate really gets going.
