So Arizona is getting sued for writing a law the echoes existing federal law? How do the plaintiffs resolve that? (I think the answer is: Arizona is fed up enough to enforce that law, where the feds are happy to sit and be clock-punchers.)
This administration wouldn’t know constitutional if it bit em in the ass.....
Sorry sack of losers wasting tax dollars that should be spent on border security and deportation of illegals.
Doom on Obama Inc !
a state does a law lawfully which enforces the Fed law and obama /cronies file a lawsuit
next they drop charges against black racists outside a voting place where they held sticks and used racist language
SICKENING, this admin does not care for the rule of law or this country, those idiots who voted for obama have let a race baiter in and now they stand there while racists are let go but those who break the law coming here are being helped
the Dem party is the party is the KKK, racists, scruffs, and those who hate this country
If the federal government does not want the states to enforce federal immigration law, could the states say O.K. we will cease enforcement of any and all federal laws.
obama admin: if we can’t do it, NO one can! We won’t let them!?
The problem with attacking the bill as ‘discrimination’ risks getting the entire Civil Rights Agenda being thrown out the door in the Supreme Court. They are smart enough not to go there.
Commie bastards.
Maybe the local authorities in AZ should stop arresting kidnappers, bank robbers, and the like. Would not want to step on any Federal toes after all./sarc
Every single day this bozo does some idiot thing to tear down the nation. Every single day.
Supremacy clause is bogus in this case. First, because AZ is not taking over immigration enforcement from the Feds, only dealing with its failed aftermath.
Second, the Feds have abdicated their responsibility in regards to illegal immigration. As the Tenth Amendment spells out, the states are free to assume responsibilities which are not claimed by the Feds.
Clinton wouldn't have made this mistake. He'd have read the polls first. The worst thing that could happen to the Democrat party in November is if this thing bleeds them until October, and it will. The amateurs around 0bama will respond in the only way they know: with a massive media campaign and a few rent-a-mobs. It will only make matters worse.
Pathetic.
I have never heard Obama state that he opposed the Arizona bill on these grounds. It was always because of discrimination concerns (which are non-existent).
It would seem this opens up the door for the defense to air for the America people the failures of this administration (and others) in enforcing our immigration laws.

We could only hope.
But Does Not Make Charges of “Discrimination”
^
Let state-run-media imply that to the folks it want to support Democrats
So let’s get this straight. Holder and his DOJ sue Arizona for nothing more than reiterating and enforcing current Federal law....
....and give the New Black Panthers a free pass despite video evidence.
F**k ‘em.
