Oklahoma Attorney General Nominee Vows to Sue U.S. Over Illegal Immigration

Former state Sen. Scott Pruitt -- a candidate for Oklahoma attorney general -- plans to announce on Thursday that, if elected, he will sue the federal government for all expenses his state incurs as a result of illegal immigration, Fox News has learned.

The campaign promise comes on the heels of a tough, new law aimed at cracking down on illegal immigration in Arizona and is sure to rile federal officials who have harshly criticized the Arizona law.

Pruitt, a minor league baseball team owner, is facing former Gov. Frank Keating's son-in-law, Ryan Leonard, in the primary.

Pruitt plans a promise to "hold the federal government accountable for all expenses the state incurs," campaign consultant Terry Allen told Fox News, including in jails, schools, medical facilities and more.

We did that here in California and we lost.

Then pass Prop. 187

Then Gov. Davis then killed it by not defending it in court.

He was recalled.

The States should file Writs of Mandamus on the specific malefactors in the feg gov.

This sets the groundwork. It begins the paper trail for future action, and proof of their malfeasance and disloyalty to the nation, the Constitution, and their (worthless) oaths of office.

We will see upheaval, strife, and possibly even civil war before this is over, or corrected. As with the petitions the Colonies sent to the Crown, it is imperative to demonstrate the disregard and negligence of the present authorities.

Most of us are more or less content with our Constitution - it is the present office holders who are the immediate issue.

The only way to do this is to put pressure on institutions. For example, why not make the country of origin of the illegal immigrant pay for things like health care, prison, etc.? Take it out of their foreign aid if they don’t pay up.

Take it out of End their foreign aid if they don’t pay up.

If we're going to make requests for hope and change, we might as well put some serious fangs in it.
