“...if these robed idiots get their marching orders from the lib base and ACLU then it doesn’t work....”

How do you know that these scoundrels did not receive their marching orders from the White House? I think it plausible that the judge was “advised” by AG Gonzalez, vis-a-vis El Presidente Bush, to give this statute the iron boot... perhaps I ought say the iron “fist” ... as in “up your’s, Mr. Citizen!”

U.S. District Judge James Munley voided the law Thursday based on testimony from a nine-day trial held in March.

from the Yahoo article.

Judge Munley was appointed to the US District Court in 1998 which puts him smack into the Clinton camp. What a surprise.

I guess that makes it an illegal illegal immigrant law now.

“It would be tough to make a complete illegal alien registry though...”

Not at all... We could start with the SOB’s marching at all the “Amnesty Now” rallies, that should nab a few hundred thousand right there.

“How do you propose they get that Constitutional Amendment through? If that happens, and it wont, it wont be the fault of the ACLU. It will be the fault of the American people who approved it.’

They do not need a “Constitutional” anything... Democrats stuff ballot boxes at will, and I will bet that most of the time they get away with the practice, COTUS notwithstanding.

I think that would be the logical first step - much like the IRS goes after tax protesters more vigorously than the average guy who doesn’t file taxes.

“... the city could not enact an ordinance that violates rights the Constitution guarantees to every person in the United States, whether legal resident or not,” he added.

Oh, I see... So when AlQueida types come here to “violate” our rights, then they have legal “rights” too. Thanks for clearing that up for me your honor... you flaming liberal jerk.

That is funny. I waited two days for a logical reasoned well thought out response. Somebody to explain why the legal argument was wrong. I'm willing to listen. I'm on your side. I wrote every Congresscritter protesting the immigration bill that is now thankfully dead.

This is the brilliant response I get... you flaming liberal jerk.

And since you called me an insulting 3rd grade name like "liberal", let me just say in response that you are a POOPYFACE. So there.

deprive residents of their constitutional rights to equal protection and due process, and violate state and federal housing law.

Excuse me, who? Residents? If this decision is allowed to stand, American citizenship means absolutely nothing.

Your IRAC is good, BUT... here is the problem:

The United States government is abdicating, or else outright undermining, its Constitutional obligation of regulating immigration and securing the borders. In not enforcing immigration law the federal government places the States in an impossible position: The individual states must attempt to prosecute, under federal statute, each and every individual “person” residing therein illegally, while the federal government simultaneously acts to disregard or otherwise prevent the application of those very laws each State needs must rely upon to protect its own sovereign interests, and secure the life limb and property of its legal citizens.

“1. We still elect the President and our congress - that is indeed democratic means.”

Yes, we do... And the present occupiers of these two branches, and to them we may also include the Judicial, plainly refuse to heed our voice. These supposed instuments of representative republican government disdain the job we sent them to do: Uphold, protect and defend the Constitution of these United States. Rather these Trojans hear the voice of globalism, the siren of the NWO, the call of MexAmeriCanada.

The Constitution means only what these pretentious demagogues adulterate it to mean.

By your logic, political scoundrels may happily wreak utter havoc upon this republic, undermine its language, its culture, and its institutions... Take us to the very edge of our ultimate destruction... BUT, because they be elected by the “democratic process,” then must needs be that the American people suffer fools — to grin and bear their disgrace, while depending upon the very fiends who warp the nation to simultaneously be its saviors.

To behave so cowardly would not constitute the actions of a free citizenry within a republic... Rather such would be the response of the enslaved emasculated fools of a dictatorship.

Glad we agree on something.

I think you just called me a coward for not supporting armed rebellion against the United States government (which I absolutely do not support).

but I can see you and Eric Blair are having a misunderstanding so I’m hoping my take on your post is a misunderstanding too.

I did not call you a coward, and if that is the impression I gave, then I apologize to you, sir. And let us be clear: I am not advocating armed insurrection against the government of the United States... I am advocating measured — but strong — civil disobedience against the malfeasance, perfidy, and treachery of its elected and appointed officers. This includes the willful and organized defiance of activist judges, bought-off Legislators, and a deaf, dumb, and blind Executive.

If we do not do this much, then the armed hostilities you so dread and abhor will become inevitable. History aptly demonstrates along every point in the rule of nations this axiom:

When the rule of law is no longer the balm of justice, but rather the coarse tyranny of unprincipled men; when the promise of wisdom is no longer the measurer of deeds, but rather she lies dead beneath mountains of infamy; when the plain meaning of words becomes so unrecognizable that no man may separate truth from the lie... then a nation falls, no matter the glow of its greatness, the power of its economy, or the might of its military.

Once a star begins the process of collapse, all the forces of nature cannot stop the implosion.

Then I’m glad it was a misunderstanding and I apologize for misunderstanding and I’m at least glad I’ve learned to ask rather than assume.
