Did you sleep through the lesson on immigration law being a federal issue?

Did you sleep through prop 187 ? Who was governor when the Supreme Court appeal was ignored ?

Nope. Though apparently you have no idea of what actually happened to Prop 187.

But being the generous and helpful soul that I am, I'll help alleviate your profound ignorance.

Prop 187 was never reviewed by the Supreme Court. It was never even reviewed by the Ninth Circuit Court. Federal Judge Marianne Pfaelzer sat on the Proposition until Pete Wilson's term expired. She then declared the Prop unConstitutional. Gov Gray Davis, not wanting the Proposition to get reviewed, did not challenge Judge Pfaelzer's ruling. Thus the Propostion was struck down by one judge, with the cooperation of Gray Davis.

So, I give up- "who was Governor when the Supreme Court appeal was ignored"? Only those of you in the parallel universe where there was such an appeal know the answer.
