I guess we have about 6 or 7 solid grounds for impeachment now.
It was Bush’s second term that pretty much guaranteed Obama’s first... oh, and the loss of the house and senate.
The cypher in the White House needs to take care of the problem in the Gulf of Mexico instead of wasting energy suing Arizona, which is just trying to defend itself from an alien invasion.
Sue? That’s simple... just kill all the lawyers first.
If the government is going to arbitrarily pick and choose which of their laws to enforce, I am going to arbitrarily pick and choose the ones I’ll obey.
What if she loses the lawsuit, as I expect she will, yet she and Arizona still do not give in? Will it result in Civil War II? If so, would you join them?
Arizona has the right to enforce its borders under the 10th amendment.
Ask this of your liberal friends:
if the administration is concerned that the AZ law might lead to racial profiling, but otherwise want to secure the birder, then why are they going SOUTH of the border to give assurances that the law will not stand?
I would LOVE to get their answer to that.
sad....a nation that hate’s it’s own existence.
WTH is the Sec. of State think she’s doing? You don’t go to another country and discuss an American problem! It’s none of their effing business!
The Obama Admiistration has a long row to hoe on this one, I think ...
Article VI - Debts, Supremacy, Oaths
... This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.
Amendment 10 - Powers of the States and People.
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
Note: Anything not expressly granted to the Federal government is reserved for the States or the People. Although this amendment is very liberally interpreted, it is one of the tenets of the Constitution. This amendment is also known as the States’ Rights Amendment.
*****
The way I see it, the Constitution says that the Constitution is THE LAW. And the LEGAL laws made by Congress pursuant to it ARE THE SUPPORTING LAWS.
And the 10th Amendment allows states to FOLLOW THE LAW - since it IS NOT reserved to the federal goverment, NOR prohibited to the states.
If the Obama Administration’s policy was to enforce the law and Arizona refused to follow it - the Supreme Court would rule AGAINST Arizona.
Obama is nothing but anti-American trash.
But... I thought their meeting several weeks ago was cordial and productive.
Interpretation: That means they didn’t outright hit each other.
“Governor Jan Brewer said she was stunned and angered to learn during an Ecuadorean television interview with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that the Obama Administration had decided to sue Arizona over its recently passed anti-illegal immigration law, SB1070.”
So Hillary decided to spout off in Ecuador? What irony...none of this bothered her though! In fact, it is quite obvious she agrees with them!
OLD GLORY BURNED BY ECUADORAN CROWD DURING CLINTON VISIT
El Universo (Guayaquil, Ecuador) 6/8/10
Crowd burns U.S. flags in Ecuador
While U.S. Sec. of State H. Clinton met with Ecuador’s president at that country’s Presidential Palace, a crowd gathered in front, burned two U.S. flags and shouted “Out with the killers of immigrants!,” “Gringos out from Latin America!,” and “Out with the killers of Palestinians!.”
(The relating link below also shows two photographs. One shows the actual burning of the U.S. flag, while a sign nearby shows the likeness of “Che” Guevara, Fidel Castro’s revolutionary ally. The other photo shows a pair of hands holding a flier that reads “USA is crime and terrorism.”
The flier was produced by the MPD (Popular Democratic Movement.) The photos can be enlarged by clicking on the words “Ampliar Imagen” on the right side of the photo.)

We need a Brewer/Christie, or Christie/Brewer, presidential ticket BIGTIME.
McCain couldn’t be reached for comment. He was busy making another immigration commercial.
Pray for America
IMPEACH OBAMA!!!
Sue a state for enforcing federal law? Wacky.
I hope she is not holding her breath on this....she should know obama is not going to help her and neither are the Dimmies in congress......these are the very same people that let the president of mexico slander her and the state of Arizona for the law to begin with....these same people that gave him a standing ovation.........they should have grilled him like Tony Hayward was put on the hot seat!
All I can say is the SCOTUS, or rather the 5 sane people in it, better start being more vocal...when the Executive branch usurps power from the other two branches,the SCOTUS should be more vocal and stand up for themselves.
