I did not say the ruling was right for conservatives... It is, however, right for those of us who beleive in the constitution as written, and those of us who are not afraid of those that want popular rulings instead of constitutional ones..

Sorry, I gotta go with Scalia instead of you on this subject. The last paragraph of his dissent:

Arizona has moved to protect its sovereignty—not in contradiction of federal law, but in complete compliance with it. The laws under challenge here do not extend or revise federal immigration restrictions, but merely enforce those restrictions more effectively. If securing its territory in this fashion is not within the power of Arizona, we should cease referring to it as a sovereign State.
