Arizona's new immigration law, now challenged in the court by a lawsuit filed by the federal government, is a violation of the constitution, which gives all authority over immigration issues to the federal government.
It's been interesting to see the flip floping of conservative politicians, and the absolute hypocrisy of the radio deejay-turned-political pundits and their followers. These people are strict constructionists when it suits them, but they're cheerleading the Arizona law which is a clear violation of the constitution. Wanna take bets on what their reaction will be if the courts "legislate from the bench" and rule in their favor?
