UPDATE 4-No ruling in hearing over Arizona immigration law
If the federal government politicians could resist the urge to act like children and not think exclusively about how their positions will impact the mid-terms and Latino vote in the out years, we would have reasonable legislation at the federal level. We would not have to litigate a state’s immigration policy.

If the Federal government would direct its immigration enforcement agencies to do their job this would not be happening. Their failure in this regard and the lawsuit brought against Arizona is nothing more than pandering the Hispanic vote for the Democrats running for office!
The problem isn’t as a result of immigration enforcement agencies not doing their job; it is that employers keep hiring illegals. Crack down on illegal hiring to eliminate illegal immigration. The AZ Gov has made comments like “all illegals are dope smugglers” to misrepresent for political purpose. It appears to be works on the slower end of the Republican base.
The federal case rests on the impropriety of Arizona enforcing immigration, because that’s a Federal job. However, the federal justice system has done NOTHING to prevent cities and states to promote themselves as Sanctuaries for the illegal aliens.
That’s not just a double-standard, that constitutes criminal behavior.
This is not pandering to the Latino vote. This is pandering to those who benefit from cheap labor. See Chapter 11, They Myth of the Latino Vote, in “Immigration Politics” by Lance Sjogren.
