The current administration will stop at nothing– apparently even suing the best advocate the country has for ending illegal immigration. They're backing illegals full-hilt and throwing American tax payers under the bus because they want to amnesty the 20 million illegals sucking up our tax dollars, all for their potential votes. This is no longer democracy when 80+% of Americans want illegals OUT of our country and the border SHUT DOWN. Join numbersusa.com and alipac.com to scorch your senators and supposed “reps” who favor all things illegal. They need extreme heat right now from Americans, not apathy.

It seems that when Sheriff Joe was asked to show his papers, he wouldn't comply.

Article III – Judicial Branch
Article III Section 2 Clause 2:
“In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction. In all the other Cases before mentioned, the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction.” (See 11th Amendment)
Paraphrasing: USA (Obama/Holder) cannot sue Arizona in the US District Court in Arizona, thus the ruling and injunction by Judge Bolton is nullified, also the case cannot go to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. USA (Obama/Holder) will need to file suit in the US Supreme Court. SB1070 has gone into full effect.

They are suing Arpaio for raids where he rounded went into businesses and rounded up employees who looked foriegn. In some cases, 75% were legal workers, but had to face detainment so he could sort out the undocumented immigrants.
Like it or not, illegal immigrants are a necessary part of our economy and suddenly forcing them out (if that were possible) would deepen our economic crisis. Furthermore, the cost of detaining, trying and deporting that many people would bankrupt the government. Enforcement alone will not solve the problem. Congress needs to have the balls to tackle comprehensive immigration reform.

Where are your papers Amy? If you move to Japan you have to carry papers, the same is true in most other countries. I have to carry a driver’s license when I drive. What’s wrong with complying with a countries laws. By the way the law is the illegal immigrant law….. Not the immigrant law. The problem is people are breaking federal laws and the federal government sues a state for writing a law that mirrors the federal law. Are you ill informed or stupid?

illegals pay taxes dumb ass

Wrong. Original jurisdiction merely gives a court the right to hear a case. It does not require that the moving party actually file there. Here the SC does have original jurisdiction but so does the district court.

Alexander Hamilton would disagree. Please refer to Federalist #81, where he notes, “In cases in which a State might happen to be a party, it would ill suit its dignity to be turned over to an inferior tribunal.”

Lobbyist: What stories does he have to tell?…

We cover the same subject but your aproach is intersting….

Some states have 'stop & identify' statutes- which are just as unconstitutional as the Arizona law. The problem here is at what point the government (state or otherwise) can do this. I firmly believe (and the Constitution supports) that government has no right to ask to begin with, unless in conjunction with an overt act. What is wrong with complying with laws like this is that we have the right to not be harassed, and it is an erosion of our liberty. If we detain slightly fewer illegal immigrants, so be it, but we do need a wholesale immigration law change. It seems as though some people feel they are the only ones with the right to be an American.

Even if Congress gets the 'balls'- the Republicans will just delay, filibuster and obstruct. We need to keep the majority in the House and expand control of the Senate to make this happen.

westendhouston,toddm,difflick you guys are dead right the illegals are paying taxes,contributing to social security(which they will never get)and they are the people who are also contributing to the economy by spending so get real its is extremely difficult to deport YES must have a very stringent security check and make them pay hefty fines(which would be of some consolation to the americans) that they have paid back some what they have taken all these years and also make them pay at least 5years back taxes so that the Americans feel that they did not get is for free at least they have contibuted for the last five years so back taxes and hefty fines will do the trick and bring them on level playing ground.Senators and GOP be real and come up with the right solutions and end this problem and then all of CITIZENS work for the strength of the great country.Do not let it break down this is a great country build by great people please live up to the reputation.The govt of USA goes hundreds of miles away from its borders to help people in trouble in Afghanistan and iraq sacrifice their
youth and at home they are spreading hatred.CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME.

YOU LIVE AND DIE FOR IT

What are you talking about? What does “It seems as though some people feel they are the only ones with the right to be an American” mean. The whole issue is the right to be American? If I am stopped by the cops for any reason I have no problem showing my ID and if I don't have one I will get a ticket. It's the law. The some people you talk about who feel they are the only ones to have American rights, are people who are AMERICAN. I don't care if they were born here or immigrated legally, they are Americans. Its giving those same rights to illegal immigrants which is the problem. I can't buy a battery at Radio Shack without giving them my information, I can't get discounts at the grocery store without giving my information and that doesn't upset you? I think asking is a lot better then demanding? Everyone is talking like this is 1939 in Germany. What is your solution to identifying persons who are not here legally? No wonder the rest of the world thinks we are idiots.

“What I mean” is that countless people, who are actually American by birth or naturalization, will be inconvenienced and possibly harassed because this statute allows discrimination. When you say this isn't 1939 in Germany, I disagree. If you had blond hair in Germany, you weren't often asked for your 'papers', but if you looked 'different', they could stop and question you under the auspices of security. This is no different.

When I refer to 'stop and identify' statutes, a person familiar with them would know that I am referring to the practice of stopping pedestrians, not drivers. It is obvious that you need a DL to drive. What you don't realize is that illegal immigrants can get driver's licenses, anyway.

Our nation was intended to be open. In the Constitution is an order to Congress to form the law pertaining to naturalization; it was accepted that people would immigrate here, and they were granted citizenship after living in the US for a length of time that has varied over history. There was no such thing as illegal immigration until the Chinese Exclusion Act, which was fundamentally unconstitutional.

The illegal immigrants are not the problem. They would not come if there was no work. The problem is that corporations are consistently placing profit over the health of their communities (generally speaking).

BTW, I can get through a trip to the store without giving out personal info…they won't refuse to sell to you if you don't say your ZIP at Radio Shack.

I can concur with your exasperation: with logic like yours, the world must think we're morons. Especially when most people are too quick to judge, instead of actually doing a little background research before opening their mouths.

“If I am stopped by the cops for any reason I have no problem showing my ID and if I don't have one I will get a ticket.”

You will get a ticket ? Really ? For what ? You aren't required to carry id and can't be arrested or ticketed for not doing so. Now, if you are driving, then “yes”, you can be ticketed if you have no license ; but driving is not a Constitutionally guaranteed right, now is it ?

“I can't buy a battery at Radio Shack without giving them my information,”

Really ? If you are paying with a check or card, then id can ( and should ) be requested; but to simply make a purchase, hardly. Any info they request is to go into a customer tracking data file and you can just say “No” to those requests ( and will still have a battery sold you ).

“I can't get discounts at the grocery store without giving my information and that doesn't upset you?”

Again, any id requested is for the sake of the store's data files and to ensure you are actually entitled to those discounts. Since you ask, no, it doesn't upset in the least if you fail to receive your discounts. Sorry.

“No wonder the rest of the world thinks we are idiots.”

The world thought we were idiots long ago. With the election of G W and the rise of the rabid right in the last decade they no longer think we are: now they are absolutely sure we are and have proof.

This administration is FAR more interested in immigration than the last one was. Deportations are up, enforcement is up, we're getting tons of new immigration and border officers….tell me EXACTLY how the federal government isn't doing what they need to be doing.

Nice Website. You should think more about RSS Feeds as a traffic source. They bring me a nice bit of traffic….

If the cartel wanted him dead, he already would be. They don’t operate via text messages. They are smart and have more intelligence that our government does. The Sheriff is stupid and it would only take a few hours for them to carryout an order.
