“federal immigration law expressly preempts any state law imposing sanctions on employers hiring illegal immigrants.”

Exactly where does the federal law derive the power to tell a State that it must support illegal activity? Last time I checked, you don't do business unless you are licensed BY THE STATE.

Any candidates that want my vote had better be talking loud and proud about impeachment, and I mean not just Obama, but the whole thugocracy. I want the next four years filled with trials, impeachment proceedings and prison sentences.
