Rick Perry, is he really a conservative?

Things to think about if your going to Vote for Rick Perry.

     -1984 Texas House of Reps as a Democrat.
     -1987 Voted for $5.7 Billion tax increase.
     -1988 Supported Al Gore in Presidential Primaries.
     -1993 Supported Clinton Health care Plan.
     -Mandated HPV for young teenage girls.
     -Extended in-state tuition to illegal immigrants, but made out of state US citizens pay
      full tuition.
     -Supported the construction of the Trans Texas Corridor. It was an open highway
      system that connected our northern and southern borders. There would even be a port
      in Kansas City that was sovereign Mexican soil.

Immigration Reform

     We do not need immigration reform, we need immigration enforcement. There is a few ways to do this. One, enforce the current laws that deal with employees employing illegal immigrants. We need to have harsh penalties for those businesses that employ the illegal immigrants. Every state needs to be held responsible for enforcing these laws and not having the Department of Justice interfere with states doing there job. Our government have become cowards and afraid of these racist special interest groups. These groups include ACLU, SPLC and La Raza. Since when does the few become the many. When these businesses hire illegal immigrants they just stimulate the cycle. Threaten these businesses with large monetary fines or suspension of business licenses.
     Second, limit physical entry into the US. This can be done in may ways, first eliminate lottery visa's by 50%. No matter the type of visa, a sponsor should be required and the sponsor has to be a legal resident or citizen. Yes, build a wall, not a fence, 20 feet high and 2 feet thick. This  is physical barrier, it will re-route illegals to find easier passage. Then the Border Patrol can concentrate on certain area's.
     Next, eliminate birth right citizenship. This is a long abused system that was created for slaves, so their children could become citizens. We now have thousands of illegal immigrates coming to the US and getting pregnant so they can stay. Not only is this wrong, we as citizens pay for the birth and medical care for the child and mother. Stop all entitlements for illegals and there family, this will certainly deter there ambitions to cross our border. Any hospital visits for non-life threatening conditions will be paid upon service.
     Lastly, give states back their rights, according to the US Constitution a state can not make rules or laws regarding qualifications for citizenship (US Constitution Article 1, Section 8), but they can enforce what the government has in placed (the 10th Amendment).

Class warfare

We are seeing a new tactic by this Administration, it is a form of class warfare. They are demonizing the rich and successful citizens, saying they need to be taxed more. The thing is that these (so called rich) people pay most of the tax revenue. This is not a new idea it has been practiced as far back as the Romans, look were they ended up! It is also practiced by socialist and communist governments. They do this to keep there citizens in a suppressed type of status and controlling who succeeds. Islam recognizes this as one of their pillars of teaching, they adjust the tax of the rich so the poor can live better.
     When you increase the taxes of the successful class of society you breed anger and resentment towards the lower income people and the government. Governments do this to make income or standards of living equal, but what they really do is stop progression and creativity. They invoke the thought of "why should try, when I get paid the same as the rest or if I succeed they will take more money". It also tells people that its OK to abuse government programs and they (government) will take care of me at the cost of other peoples hard work.
     The government doesn't need to increase taxes, but to decrease the spending of other peoples money. They also need to enforce the payment of taxes by those that don't and stop tax breaks for big corporations. This would increase revenue dramatically.
     What is the motivation for people to hire new employees or wanting to make other's succeed. We are heading down a road that other countries have failed at or are continuing to fail at!

Was the killing of Anwar al-Awlaki Constitutional?

Don't get me wrong these men were Terrorist. But, they where also US citizens. They are still protected by the US Constitution, without allowing them there rights do we let the government do as they please. The government practiced what they call "extrajudicial punishment  or killing", it is when the President feels there is no other option. I believe this wouldn't have been handle the same way if these men were in some other country. I don't have a problem hunting down terrorist, but what happens when they are US citizens and they are in America. Is the government going to send a Predator UAV into rural America. We have so many assets at our disposal, but the administration seems to be a little trigger happy lately.
