Scalia's opinion is compelling, it is probably also correct, but it is pretty much irrelevant in how the law now stands. The fact remains that the SCOTUS in a 6-2 decision agreed with my original statement.

So now that the compelling and probably correct argument of Scalia has failed to convince his peers, what do we do? I suggest as I did before that Brewer and several other states file suit against the Obama Administration.

I believe the grounds for a suit for non-enforcement AND for selective enforcement of duly enacted federal laws would provide a more compelling case for the SOTUS.

The Constitution charges the President and the Executive Branch with enforcing the laws as passed by Congress--the President is refusing to perform his duties and is in direct violation of both the intent and the word of the Constitution.

My thoughts exactly. Maybe some on the SC were inviting this action?
