I suspect the right-wingers will go George Wallace and starting spouting off about "states rights" code word, aka racism.
lololololol
You do realize the racism-cry angle is transparent right? Most people with common sense understand this weak attempt at the game. It's losing its bite by the day.

Of course. The racism of Repug party, tea baggers, conservatives has been and is plainly transparent. The class war is also race war. All the dumb, poor niggas and greasy wetbacks living their entire lives on govt tax dollars from the wealthy. yep, totally transparent.

I find it so laughable that you libtards make such statements.
The Arizona law is a state rewrite of federal law. If it's unconstitutional, so is the federal law.
Keep wondering why I call you guys libtards. It's obvious you'll never understand.

No, I am not.
And many of the Arizona law enforcement officials aren't going to enforce it anyway.
Do you have outrage for them?

Re: Justice Dept. Will Fight Arizona on Immigration
So is it true this AZ law is a near word-for-word extension of the federal one in the constitution? I keep hearing that.

Re: Justice Dept. Will Fight Arizona on Immigration
Like the Bible for "Christians", the Constitution means whatever activist conservatives want it to mean.

Re: Justice Dept. Will Fight Arizona on Immigration
Political rhetoric ignores border reality
'Secure first' calls ignore facts, undermine reform
Quote:
<snip>
Here is another way to consider the problem: Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, a leader in the anti-immigration movement and acclaimed as America's toughest sheriff, cannot secure his own jails. Every year, despite armed guards, electronic locks and video monitors, inmates smuggle drugs in from the outside and sometimes even escape.
No one would blame Arpaio. All penal institutions, regardless of security measures, have breaches. Yet imagine if America adopted a position that no new laws could be passed regarding prison reform "until the nation's jails are secure."
<snip>
"Everybody is jumping on the border-security bandwagon, including moderate Democrats," Barry said. "It's not driven by anything real on the grid, not by violence or invasions of illegal immigrants . . . not based on any real assessment of threats to the nation."
<snip>
Wucker, author of "Lockout: Why America Keeps Getting Immigration Wrong," said those who demand a sort of iron curtain prior to policy change are obstructionists: "It means don't ever come up with a workable system.

"name a crediable source"
try google. There have been many articles on AZ sheriffs and police chiefs and AZ law enforcement orgs saying enforcing the nutcase law would compromise their relations with intimidated/pissed off Hispanics, legal and not, that help the law catch criminals.

Re: Justice Dept. Will Fight Arizona on Immigration
So what does Obama think America should do on illegal immigration? Just let every person come into the country without any type of documentation and ID? I thought Obama was suppose to be a genius. He's a dumbass just like Bush. The sad thing is that Obama doesn't know it. At least Bush knew that he wasn't a very bright guy.

Re: Justice Dept. Will Fight Arizona on Immigration
Did he? What did he say that gave you that impression?

Re: Justice Dept. Will Fight Arizona on Immigration
"so what does Obama think America should do on illegal immigrations"
He laid out his plan in the campaign. Ain't gonna happen because the Repugs will block it.

If state law mirrors federal law too closely, that might be seen as an arrogant imposition on certain exclusive federal functions like say, international relations, to say nothing (for the moment) of immigration itself.

Yeah doesn't Amendment X of the BOR say The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND NOT to the people?

Re: Justice Dept. Will Fight Arizona on Immigration
the protections built in to the Constitution by the FF, against an overbearing Federal government, are being thrown by the wayside.
