Hmmm..., is the Supreme Court getting ready to do a “two-for-one deal” and strike down both laws... using the previous one of a few years back to “kick-start” the process and not even wait for a challenge to come forth, yet, for this new law?

[pfflier]

This is not SB1070.

[COBOL2Java]

So, will the wise Latina write the majority opinion?

[Star Traveler]

I guess you didn’t get down to Post #2 yet... huh? LOL ...

[mpeters]

The glorious 5 are voting to hear these tough cases before Obama gains control. The Arizona law will be upheld here!!

[pfflier]

Post #2 was happening during the 40 seconds it too to write my 2 cents worth.

[Gay State Conservative]

Well,we know how The Wise Latina and The Wise Lesbian will vote.

[HiJinx]

Ping!

[jessduntno]

The Wide Latina will draw upon all of her wisdom and experience and say what she is told to say...

[Bulwinkle]

Immigration is not the same as illegal immigration...i think ariz will win this.

Is the 9th circuit a conservative court or a goofy left court???? hmmm...goofy left and they sided with ariz.

How many decisions do these lazy bastards make a year? How slow do they think? These are our best?

[Lmo56]

Ummm ... the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 [signed by Reagan] has provisions in it for punishment of employers who hire illegal aliens.

I assume that this 1997 law from AZ is modelled on the language of that Act ...

[Star Traveler]

I’m not sure if you’re saying they are deciding on “immigration” in this court case or not. But, at any rate ... this is what it says ...

“... an Arizona law that punishes employers who knowingly hire illegal immigrants.”

[Psycho_Bunny]

Here we go....

[Comparative Advantage]

Naturally, the US Chamber of Commerce is supporting the overturning of the law since it wants to maintain the flow of slave laborors into the U.S.

If this law is overturned, it’s over fighting illegal aliens.

[Art in Idaho]

Another 5-4 decision on deck. .

[Frantzie]

Odd how SCOTUS wants to fast track this while avoiding any BC cases. Apuzzo’s case is very close - will they look at it? I think Mario’s case in the Appeals Court is tomorrow.

[caww]

Star...can you clarify this a little more in laymans language...the issue of immigration and illegal aliens is confusing this for me...one of those Dah days....Thanks.
