FAIR ^

See, we can agree.

Thank you for NOT unnecessarily excerpting this article.

The San Francisco-based court ruled that the plaintiffs lacked the "legal standing" necessary to challenge the initiative approved by Arizona voters in November 2004.

This conclusion should not be surprising considering the plaintiffs are a bunch of criminals.

Duh?

Interview with Rob Portman, USTR. Believe me, our government is planning to fling the borders wide open, and the WTO and our trade agreements give foreign nationals rights over US citizens. Now Portman claims they are going to lie low on this right now until the Doha round, but they are going to negotiate away the right of the American people to control their own destiny at the meeting. And can you imagine a flurry of last minute executive orders before Bush leaves office regarding immigration, open borders and Mode 4? I can.

Q: Mexico and India say the U.S. should move to a free-trade system for labor. That if there are jobs here, the U.S. government should allow foreign workers to apply freely for them with no restrictions. Is that something to eventually move toward?

A: I think that's a nonstarter right now. I have spent the last few months lowering expectations overseas because I don't think that's likely to pass congressional muster. Immigration is such a hot topic, we have to be very careful. I hear it mainly from India and from some private-sector folks in the U.S. -- the services sector. We'll be dealing with this in the Doha negotiations.

Wait a minute, the 9th circuit? The most liberal circuit court in this nation? Wow. Just...wow.
