SHE DECIDES: Clinton: Administration To Sue AZ Over Immigration Law...
HILLARY SAYS...
QUESTION: Thank you very much.
I would like to start with the immigration debate in the United States. The recently approved law in Arizona has presented sort of a difficult scenario for the President Obama Administration. According to some polling, half of the United States has approved this law and maybe other states would like to implement it. How’s Obama Administration dealing with this debate? Is the immigration law near reality?
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, Andrea, first, let me say how pleased I am that I have this chance to talk to you about these and other important issues. President Obama has spoken out against the law because he thinks that the federal government should be determining immigration policy. And the Justice Department, under his direction, will be bringing a lawsuit against the act.
But the more important commitment that President Obama has made is to try to introduce and pass comprehensive immigration reform. That is what we need. Everyone knows it, and the President is committed to doing it.

Defy them regardless of the outcome.
Let me know if you would like to be on or off this ping list
wow. that’s gonna help solve the problem.
Is this the response we were waiting for when POTUS told the Gov he’d be sending his staff to inform her of his decision on Fed enforcement of immigration laws?
She makes me physically ill to watch. Good thing there was a transcript.
ping!
This law is wildly popular. We ought to make hay about it to get people riled.
Wow, suing to void a law that’s essentially the same as U.S. law.
What an idiotic - er, never mind.
Forgot the slime in chief and his intellectual hemorrhoids.
If they win, I think it might actually be the spark that lights the fire.
And as one of their defenses to the legality of the law, Arizona will site the fact that the federal gov’t already has a similar law on their books. The fact that the WH won’t enforce the law is what makes Arizona’s argument valid. Even a lawyer can figure out this defense! :)
As our Governor said, “Bring it on, Big Ears!” (Well, I added the Big Ears.)
So, she’s answering the bat phone at night now?
Since this is an internal matter, what role does the SoS have re illegal immigration in Arizona?
Must mean that the necessary Judges are all bought and paid for......
If the A-hole sues, then he will have to sue California too as a similar law is on the books here as well, just not enforced.
It is nothing short of despicable that the Democrats hold enforcement of our immigration laws hostage to the granting of some form of amnesty to those who are already here illegally. Enforce the existing laws, secure the border, and leave states like Arizona alone if they have to do the job that the federal government is unwilling or unable to do.
The governor was on Greta last night, and the White House was supposed to give her an answer TODAY as to how they would help Arizona. Well, the governor has her answer. Yeah, this is going to help solve the crime situation caused by the illegals.
yes. Obama is a real problem solver . . . NOT! Guess he knows whose ass he wants to kick.
