Via Hot Air, este reportaje que el gobierno de los Estados Unidos va a llevar a las cortes el estado de Arizona sobre la Ley SB1070 de imigrantes ilegales. Aparentemente la Casa Blanca decidió primero divulgar esta noticia a los ecuatorianos, como parte de la visita de la Secretaria de Estado Hillary Clinton a Ecuador; por lo tanto es adecuado reportarlo en español. Depués de todo, no es como si la administración de Obama tenga antecedente ninguno de hablar claro en inglés*.
Thanks to Fausta for the translation: also check out her conversation with IBD’s Monica Showalter on Hillary Clinton being friendly with Ecuadorean President Correa in the first place. That the American electorate rejects the idea of a federal challenge to the law by a two-to-one ratio is irrelevant to this administration, of course; given their tendency to mistake a tin ear for principles, that’s hardly surprising. If Rasmussen put out a poll demonstrating that most Republicans and independents oppose the practice of people hitting each other in the groin, it’s highly likely that the White House would react by endorsing it for the 2010 midterms…

*Since people will complain:
Via Hot Air comes this report that the United States government will be suing the State of Arizona over its illegal-immigration law SB1070. The White House apparently chose to first break this news to the people of Ecuador, as part of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s visit to that country; in light of this, it seems appropriate to report on this in Spanish. After all, it’s not like the Obama administration has any particular history of straight talk in English.

The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.
Of course the Administration announced the

tngal (Diary) Saturday, June 19th at 3:26PM EST (link)Is the “door” to the Arizona legal defense fund, set up by Gov. Jan Brewer to try to fend off the lawsuits that are mounting against SB1070. I call it the door because if you click on the donate button it will take you to the state-run site
https://az.gov/app/keepazsafe/index.xhtml
its about “keeping Arizona safe and stopping illegal immigration”.
So, you’re probably wondering why she needs a legal defense fund. She’s going around AZ’s Dem. Attorney General Terry Goddard and hiring a private firm. It could be because Goddard has always critized the law and is a non supporter. Face it, how can you defend with all your might if you don’t support it.Maybe he’s against it because he doesn’t like it or, because he is Brewer’s opponent in the gov’s race.
Whatever. Please check out the site. Its not for campaign contributions, its for hiring a private attorney team to fight off the garbage suits.
Take that Hillary.

mbecker908 (Diary) Saturday, June 19th at 9:15PM EST (link)It’s called judge shopping.
The real issue will be what part of the law they go after. Realistically, if they go after the “stop and show papers” part it won’t really matter out on the street. We’ve long had a law that you must have a state issued ID on your person and show it to a police officer if asked for it. Those requests are typically pursuant to a traffic stop. If you don’t have an ID you can be arrested for a misdemeanor. If that happens you will get booked into jail until they figure out who you are. When you are booked on any charge several things happen automatically, like your fingerprints are run through NCIC and ICE checks your immigration status. If you are illegal you are either turned over to ICE or flagged for their custody after your current charge is adjudicated. I’ve talked to street cops and all of them have told me that SB1070 will not change one thing about police operations at the street level in this this particular situation.
Depends how it goes up
cactusjack Saturday, June 19th at 9:26PM EST (link)if a classic fact pattern detention occurs, and it wends its way up to SCOTUS through appeals, it will not come before them before November elections. But…if something happens that life or property in some way are in imminent harm. or the nature of the action is to secure an injunction (stopping enforcement of the act until further adjudication), and then something has to be determined about gov’t powers in this whole thing the next level up…it could get up to US Ct Appeals or even SCOTUS on a real fast track, before Nov. Say, if someone is detained, harmed, etc under circumstances that can;t wait, and that could happen in this situation. I hae to believe O;s advisors are actually worried about that scenario esp before Novemeber.
Cactusjack, would that give Obama reason

I’d guess that Obama and Co do not want to fast track, especially before the November elections given the large support for the AZ law.

This is pretty much why I never listened to the birthers; tossing Obama out on a technicality would accomplish nothing except putting Zippy the Pinhead in the Oval Office, and cement the Democratic lock on the black vote for generations. It’s also why I pray nightly for the safety of the President, and why I have regular nightmares about what would happen if both Obama and Biden were incapacitated at the same time.
Like it or not, we have to deal with the dynamic duo through for another 2 1/2 years, regardless of the damage they do to the country between now and then. Good news is that they won’t have a lapdog congress after January. Bad news is that between November and January, they’ll have nearly unlimited power and nothing to lose.

Next93 (Diary) Sunday, June 20th at 8:17PM EST (link)Obama’s approval ratings, absent his automatic 12% from black people, is down in the mid-30s. After November, the Dems are going to leave Obambi to twist in the wind, and might actually primary him in 2012, the Clintons appar to be already setting up for a run.
Black people are going to see that as a betrayal, and while it might not get them immediately voting R in large numbers, it will certainly get a lot of them thinking about the wisdom of voting a straight D ticket. And once the Svengali-like spell has been broken, it’s just a matter of time before they start taking a close look at how D policies have harmed them (going back to about 1850 or so!).

sta46 Sunday, June 20th at 11:34AM EST (link)at your Zippy the Pin Head description, I re-read your post more carefully. I agree with your points of ignoring the birthers a) on general principles and b) for a whole host of reasons not the least of which is because the alternatives coould be even worse… I know, the mind reels at that prospect.
However I am curious if any of the legal scholars here have an opinion on the following question:
Should we be lucky enough to draft Christie from the floor (or someone with his titanium cajones) and whomever it might be decided to open up all docs sealed by EO and the birthers (on a gazillion to 1 chance have a point) would that immediately nullify all the horrendous “legislation” opuppet has signed (HCR) and our personal favorites the up-coming cap and trade and amnesty which they will jam through in Nov?
I am both saddened and disgusted by the Rs. Saddened because out entire political process has been so corrupted and disgusted because they haven’t figured out that taking the high road isn’t going to work in this environment and they had best learn to play dirty in a big fat hurry.
I would be running the video of whats-his-name in NC committing assault on a student side-by-side with clips from an old James Cagney gangster movie titled “The old Chicago Way and the new Chicago Way” in every major market in the US (didn’t the msm just bury that one with all due alacrity?) they had best get their collective selves in gear and up to speed NOW and include a plan to deal with the massive voter fraud which will most assuredly take place in nov.

Anyways, should be great fun (read: mortifyingly frustrating) to see SB1070 get held up by God knows how many courts. Mbeck notes that it will be at least 3 years; I concur, but I bet that with all the pending cases in both the state and federal court docket, and with many of them approaching with differing complaints, it will be even more than that.

Watch the video again and notice that
obladioblada Saturday, June 19th at 7:07PM EST (link)she chose her words very carefully and intentionally emphasized that it was Barry’s decision to sue AZ. “PRESIDENT OBAMA has spoken out”… “Justice Department under HIS direction…” The Clintons are very precise in their prepared statements.
Even for all of Barry’s bizarre behavior in foreign nations and the national “apologies” to China for Arizona’s law, the idea that the suit against AZ was intended to be announce by Hillary in an Ecuadoran interview strains credulity. And she didn’t say “WE have decided” or “DOJ has decided”, she emphasized that Obama ORDERED the DOJ action.
Did Hillary go rogue? The Clintons are political animals who play to the polls and are certainly aware of the trouble that the Dems are in. And there’s no love lost between Barry and Hillary and Bill. The Clinton’s boy Carville fired the opening round to signal that it’s okay to take shots at Barry. Is Hillary distancing herself from Barry, is it the early stages of a Dem strategy to stop the bleeding by taking down Barry?
Those are astute observations nt

June 7th Gallup Poll Tie-In
Greyledge Gal Sunday, June 20th at 7:29AM EST (link)Hillary made this “announcement” to a Spanish speaking audience in another country one day following the release of this poll:
http://www.gallup.com/poll/139379/hispanics-approval-obama-drops-2010.aspx
The key finding of the poll:
“The decline in Obama’s approval rating with Hispanics is seen mainly among those interviewed in Spanish: an 11-point drop in the past month and a total of 21 points since January.”
IMHO, Hillary/Administration knew this would be picked up by non-English media and, in fact, it took more than a week to reach any US blog. This was a way to signal to Spanish as first language Hispanics living in the US (no way to tell whether respondents were legal or not) that the Obama Administration and President Obama in particular were going to fight to keep the AZ law from going into effect and thus keep the borders open.
Most probably the emphasis that the suit was being ORDERED by Obama at his direction was purposeful and meant to make the target audience feel that Obama is truly on their side. *rolling eyes*
Look for lots of amicus briefs in this case.

If so, couldn’t the next president simply ignore the health deform law? If not, then shouldn’t every murder and every kidnapping and every drug overdose death caused by illegal aliens in Arizona be directly attributable to Barrack Obama’s policy of ignoring the border and allowing these criminals to enter? If they attempt to sue over AZ’s law, then they should start a class action suit with all the victims, and sue Obama DIRECTLY, and PERSONALLY, for those deaths.
Hmm, that's a good question

Bear trap
broadsword Sunday, June 20th at 10:06PM EST (link)That’s what Obama and the DOJ are walking into here. The chatter suggests they are going for a challenge on constitutional grounds based on that its the job of the Federal Government to set immigration policy. One slight problem with that premise aside from it being flawed is that the Arizona law makes it legal (in Arizona) for State and Local LEOs to assist with enforcement of Federal law. It in no way sets policy but merely mirrors Federal law. The AZ law has a “Reasonable Suspicion” or “Probable Cause” clause that is actually lacking from the Federal law. Remember “O”s little ice cream horror story? It was probably the Fed law he was referring to. In other words ICE agents could just snatch you off the street just because they think you might be illegal. Apparently not only has DOJ still not read the AZ law but haven’t read their own law either. This is going to get ugly folks, but not for Arizona,but for the DOJ and their blatantly incompetent “superiors”. Gov. Brewer has apparently laid a very clever trap indeed.
