According to Secretary of State Hilary Clinton, the White House is going to sue Arizona over it’s impending immigration law that will go into effect in July. Remember that when asked in a congressional hearing if he had read the law, Eric Holder said no. Homeland Security Secretary, Janet Napolitano, also had not read the law. I seriously doubt that BO (that’s the president) has read the law. Why oh why spend our money on suing a state that is only doing what the federal government should be doing and that’s enforcing immigration laws. I have read and watched debates about the Arizona law. BO said if you go out for ice cream you could possibly be stopped by police and asked for your papers. How silly. If you are doing something wrong that warrants being stopped by police then you may be asked for papers if the police have reasonable suspicion that you may be in the country illegally. Some New Mexicans are afraid they may be stopped in Arizona because New Mexico gives drivers licenses to whoever wants them. New Mexicans believe they may have to carry a passport to Arizona. This is really getting out of control. First, the president, the attorney general and homeland security secretary don’t read the law but decry it. Then they decide to sue Arizona. There are a lot more important things to do. Let me think… the economy, the oil spill in the Gulf (that’s another blog post), the war in Afghanistan just to name a few. Let’s get this country back on track and forget about the state that is only trying to do what the federal government should have been doing all along.
I whole heartedly agree with you and now a town in Nebraska is cracking down on illeagals and I agree with them. The country of Mexico is sueing Arizona which to me is about the most idiotic thing they could do. I am not against immigration if done right and that the people who move here learn the language and get jobs, pay taxes, etc. just like the rest of us taxed to death Americans.
