Obama Assails Arizona Immigration Bill
The Wall Street Journal ^ | 04-23-10 | LAURA MECKLER

Posted on 04/23/2010 11:13:36 AM PDT by GOP_Lady

WASHINGTON—President Barack Obama on Friday harshly criticized a proposed law in Arizona to crack down on illegal immigration and said his administration would examine the measure to see if it is consistent with federal law.

Speaking at a naturalization ceremony for active-duty members of the military, Mr. Obama also made a fresh pitch for comprehensive immigration legislation, which Democratic congressional leaders have said they will try to move this year.

Well then Bozo....do your damn job and secure the border at the Federal level, so the State’s don’t have to pick up the slack!

For eight years, we told and asked Bush to do the same damn thing...He responded by holding Cinco De Mayo celebrations up in the White House while calling people like you, "Vigilantes".

Hey HUSSEIN, JERKOFF,

You weren't elected governor of Arizona.

Last I CHECKED, Arizona has a right as a STATE to make HER OWN LAWS.

So why don't you slink back to your little fiefdom in D.C., and read your teleprompter and leave the AMERICAN PEOPLE who are trying to survive your IDIOT PRESIDENCY alone?

Why not examine what can be done about the problem instead of focusing on where the power to do something about the problem lies ? Geez. I am soooo hating on this cocky guy....

I hope everyone realizes the insanity of having an agent of a contractually created entity be the final arbiter in a dispute over that contract.

If we can quit responding with “Bush’s fault”, perhaps we could denounce the only guy in position to fix the problem today?
Obama is the one who just complained about AZ attempting to resolve a problem that he continues to ignore!

Of course he assails the AZ Immigration Bill. If he was stopped by the cops in Arizona, HE COULDN'T PROVE HE'S A FRIGGIN' AMERICAN CITIZEN.

“I hope the goat fornicating swine orders the federal leos to go do something about Arizona when they tell him to eat excrement and bark at the moon.”

LOL!

We have already passed draconian”prove your right to work” laws 2 years ago, and we have lost 40% OF OUR ILLEGALS.

Oh come on now. If we did that half the posters on FR would have to remain silent.

This bill is OBAMA’S FAULT!
He pulled Napolitano away from AZ (and for that I do thank him!) allowing Brewer to step up!!! :)

I wonder if his papers from Kenya are in order. He may want to avoid Arizona for the time being.

I think Cochise County is one of the most beautiful places in the world (we live @90 miles away in Tucson). One of our favorite things to do was hiking along the river, seeing the petroglyphs, bird watching, climbing to the top of Carr or Miller Canyon where snow falls. We went twice a month. Now we stay away after running into a group of people while we were out in the “boonies.” We hid along the bank of a wash and heard spanish speakers passing. We want our State back!

Yup, I agree. I stopped hiking in the Santa Ritas in the late 90s after I saw those long trails of 50 men with water bottles, crossing. Not safe for one or two women.

When I moved to AZ for graduate school (early 90s), the southern area was sooo incredibly beautiful and unspoiled. We drank water straight out of Sycamore Canyon. The illegal criminals are directly to blame for the destruction and for us being locked out of our lands. And on this topic, even those who might normally be liberal tend to agree.

Will Obama “examine” ObamaCare to see if it doesn’t violate any laws too?

This thing is going to be attacked by the Marxist using all their force. When they do find a judge to overturn it, and the supremer court upholds it, are you Arizonans ready to fight? Do you think the governor will say, “Well, we tried.” Or will she rally a new confederacy?
