Arizona SB1070 was based on California’s Prop 187. Prop 187 occurred back in 1994. Ed and the rest of the do nothing GOPe had the eight years when Bush was president to push for a national Prop 187. You know, especially right after 9-11 when the threat posed by illegals was blatantly obvious to the entire country and strong border security could have passed.
Calling for a national SB1070 in 2011 safely assures that it hasn’t a snowball’s chance since Obama will never sign it. But it does provide a lot of good empty words that give the appearance of actually doing something. No wonder it impresses you.
