Perry on El Paso violence
Mulvaney gives it 4 peppers...
The claim...
In a TV interview last week about border security, Gov., Rick Perry said: "It’s becoming really frustrating when we’re seeing a Mexican governor assassinated across the border from Texas, you’ve got bullets hitting the City Hall in El Paso, you’ve got bombs exploding in El Paso."
The facts...
There has not been a car bombing, or other drug-related bombings, in El Paso. Asked what the governor was referring to, aides said that he meant to cite a July 15 car bombing across the border in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico.
