Umm, Jermyn, do you know why Obama is in Texas? He is here for a week of Democratic fundraisers - three! He isn't here to visit the holding facilities at the border.

You don't meet on the tarmac to discuss a humanitarian crises!

It isn't possible to build a fence the entire length of the border.

Why not?

Then why build a fence at all?

I said you can meet there and then establish a time to meet later.

Ultimately, it would have been a show of courteousness and even respect for the Governor of Texas to accept the President's invitation and from there, they could have arranged for a time to meet to discuss things in more detail.


Olive branch extended, olive branch rejected.

No one would send this many children to the border en mass without some direction that it's okay to come. They know under Obama's immigration policy, they won't be deported and will be granted amnesty under DACA.

Olive branch from Obama my eye. They don't need to meet at the tarmac to establish a time to meet later ESPECIALLY BECAUSE OBAMA IS IN TEXAS FOR THREE FUNDRAISERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

That is more important to him than the crises on the border! Are you blind, deaf or dumb?!

I am none of those.

The President invited the Governor to meet him. In response to the President's act of goodwill, the Governor shoved it back in the President's face.

I bet the President's invitation to Governor Perry wasn't done publicly. However, Perry's rejection of the President's invitation, I bet that was done publicly.

This is why we can't get anything done in our country-- all this unnecessary hostility and disrespect.

Very true.

Not very respectful to use the IRS to go after your political enemies.

Well, of course, I wasn't serious anyway.

"Hey, Gov, I know there is a humanitarian crises on the border, but I gotta do my fundraisers. So, like, can we meet on the tarmac? 'Cause I don't really want to get TB or Scabies while I'm on your border from those illegals that I plan on granting Amnesty. It's good for my base. The Dems like it. We bring the children so we can make the Repubs look bad about turning them back. Can't push against women and children, ya know. Great plan, right? It's like the War on Women and racism. We know how to move the narrative, don't cha think? What a way to grow my party, right? So, are we meeting on the tarmac for a quick handshake. Come on Bro, let's do it."

Estupida en la cabeza...
