-The Right Scoop picks up this unusually concrete statement from the Obama administration on their response to Arizona’s new immigration-enforcement law. Up to now,the White House,including Barack Obama himself,has remained noncommittal about taking legal action against Arizona while continuing to criticize the bill publicly. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton removes the ambiguity and declares that the Justice Department will sue over the bill in an interview with an Ecuador media outlet:
The Presidents and Congresses have been going to pass a comprehensive immigration policy for years and the American people are still waiting. It would appear that even an all-out military attack on the citizens of Arizona by Mexico would go unnoticed by this Administration and this Congress. Obama would not cancel a golf date for the second coming,oh,I forget,I think he feels he is the second coming. Fortunately,only the Liberals,Progressives and Obama feel that way. Having been a registered Democrat for fifty-six years,I just wish my Party would boot the Liberals and Progressives and get back to what we do best,work for the interest of the American people and forget the self-interest groups and individuals who want to be "king of the mountain!"

So even you Hillary are drinking his cool aid??
Of coarse she is Thomas she is another Bilderberg member! Hillary is trying to get a treaty with the UN to take our guns from us. Wake up! Hillary is just as bad as Obama and we do not need another Clinton in our house either!
I fully agree with you. The Clintons are on the same level as obama and his radical CZARS.
Clifton,,,I agree with you about obama,however I do not support amnesty. Quite frankly I don't support anything obummer is doing,and I hope we can stop everything he wants,then clean up everything he has screwed up! We need fresh blood in both our houses,and we need to impeach then prosecute obama,his czars,reid,pelosi,and others,,,or kick them out of America for treason!
Hillary Clinton,you sue Arizona and WE THE PEOPLE will REVOLT!
You had better start listening to the people instead of the head Narcissist!
Obama needs to be removed from office,before there's nothing left to America!

Here is Dr. Orly's Taitz's legal advice:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In regards to legal challenges to AZ anti illegal immigration law.
First of all,none of the groups or even Feds have any standing to challenge it:using their own language,they have no standing,there was no damage to anyone and any claims of damages are conjectural and hypothetical and the cases need to be dismissed as frivolous.
Az simply put in its statutes Federal law,it is identical in language to Federal law. Ca has a similar law on the books for years. The difference is that Arnie is strong in talk only,while Jan Brewer will walk the walk.
A couple of Obama supporters have written to me that I am wrong in advising Gov Brewer to request for all issues of fact and law to be decided by the jury. They claim that in a legal dictionary it says that issues of law need to be decided by the judge only.
It reminds of an Orwellian animal farm. Do you remember how the pigs changed the laws over night. At first all animals were equal later on a new rule appeared on the wall,that pigs were more equal than others.
Similarly,if you look in the Constitution,7th amendment guarantees us jury trial,it does not state only on the matters of fact. The judge can provide the jury with the law,but the jury can decide,whether a certain statute violated the law.
I remember there was a famous case where a judge was nearly impeached,because he gave the jury an improper instruction,namely that only the matters of fact can be decided by the jury.
Let’s go back to sanity. It is clear as day and night that a Federal judge is totally dependent on his ultimate boss,the president and the federal government; there is a clear bias in favor of the Federal government;therefore Gov. Brewer needs to demand a jury trial in AZ and not be at the mercy of one Federal judge.
