Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer on Friday signed a controversial bill that seeks to crack down on illegal immigration.
The sweeping measure will make it a crime under state law to be in the country illegally. It will also require local police officers to question people about their immigration status if there is reason to suspect they are in the country illegally.
Earlier, President Obama called the bill "misguided" and said it could violate people's civil rights.The bill's Republican sponsor, state Rep. Russell Pearce of Mesa, said Obama and other critics of the bill were "against law enforcement, our citizens and the rule of law."

Signs a COMMON SENSE immigration bill
I understand. How about Brewer/Ryan 2012?
Exactly.

We either became a nation with the rule of law, or we become the same Mexico whose drug lords now pattern their behaviors after those who beheaded Daniel Perle and posted the video of it.
Earlier, President Obama called the bill “misguided” and said it could violate people’s civil rights.The bill’s Republican sponsor, state Rep. Russell Pearce of Mesa, said Obama and other critics of the bill were “against law enforcement, our citizens and the rule of law.”
Anyone have any doubt whatsoever that this excuse for a President, is a treasonous offense to patriotic tax paying citizens of the United States of America.
I am VERY interested to hear Mark Levins take on this issue.
Coming soon to a Sirius Radio I’ll be listening to.
If this bill is “unconstitutional” (Which “constitution” are they talking about?), wouldn’t Arizona DPS asking me to show them my vehicle registration, driver’s license and proof of insurance ALSO be “unconstitional”? I know. I know. The Klowns at the 9th Circus are going to shred this thing to bits. They always do.
I love it.
Especially after all the times this jerk has flipped the bird at strong women, it’s about time he had it back in his own face.
Well done, Governor!
Now if Governor Lingle would take the cue...
“Arizona Governor Signs Controversial Immigration Bill”
It’s “controversial” to enforce the law? How about we park a busload of illegals in front of obuma’s Chicago house and tell them to go inside and make themselves comfortable.
“I am not a racist, I feel no hate. I love my country and my state.”
Watch, next thing you know, AZ will say that if you are in the country illegally you can’t be POTUS.
WOO HOO!! I LOVE IT!
Hey, you have a point there.
You know, it's funny how the AP never referred to a “controversial” bill when 0bama signed the really controversial, rammed through 0bamacare bill which most Americans were against, yet the AP is busy calling a bill that 70% of Arizonians support as “controversial”. The lamestream media never fail to deliver on their total bias do they?
From your lips to God’s ears. Amen to that!
Let’s hear it for the rule of law!!
There’s a strong case against it being found unconstitutional.
The feds powers re immigration are to “make uniform” the standards and rules for immigration.
But NOT to enforce them! That was still up to the states!
If the fed abdicates its responsibilities, and it clearly appears to have done so, the states have every right to take action.
Obama and other critics of the bill were “against law enforcement, our citizens and the rule of law.”
Amen.
States Rights... we fought a civil war over once – might have to do it again.
