1) It actually was eight, Kagan recused herself.
2) Scalia wrote a dissent that would have upheld the entire law.
It's a good idea to get all the facts straight before launching into a blog screed.
By voting for who?
Tell us again how the November elections are going to chastize any of them in any way. They have lifetime tenure. And until the GOP gains a 2/3rds majority in the Senate, we won't see liberal usurpers removed from office after impeachment.
I’m with coach on this! Let’s elect 9 new justices in the 2012 Supreme Court elections! Yeah!
I used to have a lot of respect for that site, but this is goofy. It negates a lot of positives.
One of the worse results of this ruling is obama’s poll numbers will go up. There are many dummies in this country who will think “obama was right. That means he really is smart. I’m voting for him again.”
AZ should immediately file a Writ of Mandamus to force the Feds to DO THEIR JOB then

Immigration restrictionists lose every election run on their issue.
Until they start winning elections, they aren’t going to tell anyone anything.
America, turn out the lights, it is over. What is there to save anymore? Also realize that IF there were 70 Senators with (R) behind there names if a crucial vote came that protected the people rather than the PTB you can be assured that as many as needed would sell out. The only answer anymore is for the states to leave this corrupt non-sovereign USA.
So I guess we only need to vote in six new justices now in November.
“These people have in effect erased our borders. Now it is up to us to correct this injustice in November.

How about by electing a conservative Senate. You DO understand how Supreme Court Justices are nominated and confirmed - or did I speak too fast for you?

Bullshit, do you think this will make a difference? Do you think Romney will enforce our borders? This is about power, nothing more, to keep the beasts in Washington fed. The progressives, socialists, and the GOPe who have given us the likes of McCain, Dole, Ford, and others have destroyed our Constitutional Republic for their own gains. It is no longer “by the people, for the people” but by the politicians,for the politicians. As for rallies, writing, and phone calls, see where that got us. Call me when the patriots get serious.
Agreed...
Actually, the supremes got this one 100% correct...
Arizona overreached by trying to enact it’s own immigration laws, which according to the constitution are powers granted to the federal government..
The feds overreached by trying to micromanage local and state law enforcement, which are powers not specifically granted to the feds, reserving them for the states and the people respectively...
This may not be the POPULAR decision, but it is the correct one...
And once again, how does that impact the justices currently on the bench?
It doesn't. They will leave when they are good and ready.
Don't double down on bad writing with being a jerk.
Alito joined Thomas and Scalia on three of the four. Kennedy is grooming Roberts to be the next center of attention whore. Basically they held that enforcing the law is against the law and states are are no longer sovereign which would have come as a great surprise at the original Constitutional Convention.
And when the fedgov fails to act? I'll be interested to ready Scalia's dissent.
Yeah, I was kinda wondering that myself.
The decision is crap. Did you read it and the dissents?
