Despite the rantings by Al Sharpton and Barack Obama, 70% of Arizona voters agree with new immigration legislation signed into law last Friday.
And, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer enjoyed a nice bounce in her approval ratings this week after signing the immigration bill into law.
Last week, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer signed an immigration law that launched a national debate. It has also at least temporarily helped her own chances of remaining Arizona’s governor.
A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of likely voters in the state shows that 56% now approve of the way Brewer is performing her role as governor. Two weeks ago, just 40% offered their approval.

Limbaugh’s idea is brilliant. The Governor of Arizona should hold a press conference and announce that the state of Arizona will offer one-way vouchers to San Francisco on AMTRAK or Greyhound Bus to any illegal alien who wants to leave Arizona. I’d expand that offer to any SANCTUARY CITY in the country…maybe even Washington, D.C.
Another great idea is to publish in every Arizona newspaper the MEXICAN Immigration Policy, what THEY demand of visitors. Hey, Al “not-so-Sharpton”, take your “freedom walkers” to Mexico and see how you are treated.

Where is the media pointing out all the violence coming from these protesters, including the Piñata with Jan Brewer’s face on it and a little kid beating it with a club? Where are Obama and Clinton warning about the dangers these thugs pose the way they tried to link violence and McVeigh and every other crap they could to the TEA Partiers? HYPOCRITES!

I am a native Californian who now lives in AZ. Does anyone remember what happened in CA?
From the experience of Prop. 187 in CA, AZ is winning the battle but could very well lose the war in the long run (and not very long from now). Our ex-Governor, a sitting President and his evil machine, and the entire Democratic apparatus is on the verge of open warfare against this law, and the courts will go along with them. Keep in mind, the 9th Circuit already ruled against such laws, saying the state infringed on the federal government’s rights, saying that the feds have “exclusive jurisdiction over matters relating to immigration.”
The Democrats latched onto anti-Prop. 187 sentiment even though the law originally passed overwhelmingly in the state (59%, in almost every county). The Republicans NEVER recovered from this, to this day. Essentially the Democratic vote plus the overwhelming illegal immigrant vote ensure that the Republicans will be punished for a very long time.
This issue could bring the Hispanic vote out in large numbers in November, not only in CA, but in other states as well, effectively killing the Republican’s and Tea Party’s chances of sending these evil Democrats packing. Rubio in Florida is concerned, and that evil Boxer is rubbing her hands at the Arizona gift and how she will play it out here.

Something they have NO RIGHT to do ???

Valerie commented:
Decent summary of the legislation, with a link to the actual bill that was signed.
http://legalinsurrection.blogspot.com/2010/04/saturday-night-card-game-arizona.html
Most of the opposition to the bill is based on the mistaken impression that it’s something else, entirely. In particular, this bill conforms state law to US law, and does not permit heretofore unlawful stops. Rather, after a lawful stop, the police are authorized to ask for Id, just as they are for US citizens.
For example, the New York Times published a blast against the law, based on the wrong text.

And, we have allies.
http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D9FC6P080&show_article=1
“An emerging immigration proposal by three Democratic senators calls for more federal enforcement agents and other border security-tightening benchmarks before illegal immigrants could become legal U.S. residents.”
“Those goals “must be met before action can be taken to adjust the status of people already in the United States illegally,” according to a copy of the draft legislation, obtained Wednesday by The Associated Press, that Sens. Harry Reid of Nevada, Charles Schumer of New York and Robert Menendez are developing.”
**************
No, the allies are not Reid and Schumer. Dunno about Menendez.
What I do know is that Reid and Schumer can count, and when Lindsey Graham told them to back off with their wonderful plan to ram immigration legislation through on a 3-week schedule, they would have checked first, to see whether they had the votes to get it through.
The allies I refer to are Democratic senators who have been warned by their constituents that they will forfeit their seats if they vote for the wrong kind of immigration legislation. Ben Cardin, D.-Md is an example.
Now, the question is whether this (what is this? A new bill?) will be taken up now, or tabled in hopes the whole thing will go away with the next news cycle.
Opaobie commented:
Marine Mom in AZ #12, that was before all that has transpired since. California wasn’t bankrupt back then, the state still had some semblance of order, and the effects of the Mexican invasion had not fully taken their toll. Today, we have hindsight, the TEA Party movement is alive and well and can add this issue to its cause, so the chances of a redux of the California calamity in Arizona is remote at best. Add the down economy, the growing fear of the federal government nationalizing everything in sight and forcing more control over American citizens while allowing an invasion of foreigners who get all the benefits WITHOUT even having to follow the same rules and laws citizens do, and you have a whole different situation. Don’t forget, the new Obamacare law FORCES AMERICAN CITIZENS to “show us your HEALTHCARE papers” or be FINED, and the IRS is the collection agency. NO suspicious behavior is required, just file your tax return and THEY determine whether you “have the right papers” (declaration of health insurance). The illegals and their advocates don’t have a leg to stand on.
I see this growing into a nation wide movement, not a detriment to the TEA Party movement’s successes. Gutless Republicans had better get on board or expect to get run over by this juggernaut. They have got to READ THE LAW and not buy into the phony strawman that the Leftists have created out of it. It’s time they stood up for US and not their own worthless political careers….based on letting the other side always define the argument.

USA commented:
Contrary to popular belief, the word “immigration” does not appear anywhere in the US Constitution, which raises the question of whether or not the “immigration” issue is an enumerated power of the Federal government, constitutionally speaking. The term “naturalization” does appear in the US Constitution however, under Article I – Section VIII – Clause IV – which assigns the federal government via the Legislative Branch, the power – “To establish a uniform Rule of Naturalization;” – a legal means and method by which immigrants can gain access to U.S. citizenship via an organized and controlled naturalization process.

What America is Michael Gerson living in?
by Byron York
[Which leads to the question: What America is Gerson living in? No, we are not confronted by actors with heavy German accents demanding our papers. We are instead confronted routinely by people of all stripes asking to see our driver's license. When we board an airplane, we are asked to produce a government-issued photo ID, usually a driver's license. When we make some credit- or debit-card purchases in department stores, we are asked to produce a driver's license. When we enter many office buildings, both private and government, security guards often ask us to produce a driver's license. When we go to doctors' offices and hospitals, we are asked to produce a driver's license. When we check into hotels, we are asked to produce a driver's license. When we purchase some over-the-counter drugs, we are asked to produce a driver's license. If we go to a bar or nightclub, anyone who looks at all young is asked to produce a driver's license. And needless to say, if we have any encounter with police or other authorities, we are asked to produce a driver's license.
Some situations involve an even higher level of scrutiny. When we get a new job, we are asked to provide not a driver's license but a passport or birth certificate to prove citizenship. In other situations, too: When I renewed my District of Columbia driver's license last year, I had to produce a passport to prove citizenship, even though it was a valid, unexpired license I was renewing. And in many places, buying a gun -- a constitutionally-protected right -- involves enormous scrutiny.
[..]
P.S. — All the discussion above relates to people who are American citizens. In addition to the situations requiring a driver’s license, some people might not know that since the 1940s, federal law has required non-citizens who are in the United States permanently to carry on their person, at all times, the official documents proving that they are here legally — green card, work visa, etc. That has been the law for 70 years, and the new Arizona law does not change it.]

Sojourner commented:
I live in Arizona. I have a life and work that I do here. I have children that I’m trying to raise here. Arizonans are living, everyday, with the tragic results of a State being invaded. Our citizens are being murdered, we are being kidnapped, property and lives are being destroyed by drugs & crime.. and believe me, this lawlessness is blind to race and ethnicity…( much more blind to race than race hustler Sharpton and Co.,leading the charge to agitage and foment Latino hate to keep them under the ‘politcal thumb’ of the left). It just attacks, ravaging lives and communities.
So I thank God for Jan Brewer..finally a LEADER, who’s stepped up and taken on the job of doing what the President and the Feds refuse to do: enforce the rule of the law that they’ve sworn a solemn oath to uphold. It’s mind boggling how the President of the United States, Barack Obama and the Attorney General of the United States, Eric Holder, are publicly opposed to Arizona enforcing the laws of the United States to protect citizens of the United States within the borders of the United States. Can any of these Ivy League smart guys show me where in the Constitution it says they’re supposed to DO NOTHING as Arizona is being invaded? Think about that. The President and Attorney General of the United States are publicly and ‘philosophically’ opposed to enforcing the laws of the United States for the protection and safety of the sovereign citizens of the United States. Why doesn’t everyone understand what that implies for the future of our Republic?
If every citizen of the United States is not willing to recognize exactly what this means, then they just aren’t prepared to live in freedom.

How Mexico Treats Illegal Aliens By Michelle Malkin
[If those rules constitute the racist, fascist, xenophobic, inhumane regime that the National Council of La Raza, Al Sharpton, Catholic bishops and their grievance-mongering followers claim, then what about these regulations and restrictions imposed on foreigners?
-- The Mexican government will bar foreigners if they upset "the equilibrium of the national demographics." How's that for racial and ethnic profiling?
-- If outsiders do not enhance the country's "economic or national interests" or are "not found to be physically or mentally healthy," they are not welcome. Neither are those who show "contempt against national sovereignty or security." They must not be economic burdens on society and must have clean criminal histories. Those seeking to obtain Mexican citizenship must show a birth certificate, provide a bank statement proving economic independence, pass an exam and prove they can provide their own health care.
-- Illegal entry into the country is equivalent to a felony punishable by two years' imprisonment. Document fraud is subject to fine and imprisonment; so is alien marriage fraud. Evading deportation is a serious crime; illegal re-entry after deportation is punishable by ten years' imprisonment. Foreigners may be kicked out of the country without due process and the endless bites at the litigation apple that illegal aliens are afforded in our country (see, for example, President Obama's illegal alien aunt -- a fugitive from deportation for eight years who is awaiting a second decision on her previously rejected asylum claim).
-- Law enforcement officials at all levels -- by national mandate -- must cooperate to enforce immigration laws, including illegal alien arrests and deportations. The Mexican military is also required to assist in immigration enforcement operations. Native-born Mexicans are empowered to make citizens' arrests of illegal aliens and turn them in to authorities.
-- Ready to show your papers? Mexico's National Catalog of Foreigners tracks all outside tourists and foreign nationals. A National Population Registry tracks and verifies the identity of every member of the population, who must carry a citizens' identity card. Visitors who do not possess proper documents and identification are subject to arrest as illegal aliens.
All of these provisions are enshrined in Mexico's Ley General de Población (General Law of the Population) and were spotlighted in a 2006 research paper published by the Washington, D.C.-based Center for Security Policy. There's been no public clamor for "comprehensive immigration reform" in Mexico, however, because pro-illegal alien speech by outsiders is prohibited.
But under the Mexican constitution, such political speech by foreigners is banned. Noncitizens cannot "in any way participate in the political affairs of the country." In fact, a plethora of Mexican statutes enacted by its congress limit the participation of foreign nationals and companies in everything from investment, education, mining and civil aviation to electric energy and firearms. Foreigners have severely limited private property and employment rights (if any).
As for abuse, the Mexican government is notorious for its abuse of Central American illegal aliens who attempt to violate Mexico's southern border. The Red Cross has protested rampant Mexican police corruption, intimidation and bribery schemes targeting illegal aliens there for years. Mexico didn't respond by granting mass amnesty to illegal aliens, as it is demanding that we do. It clamped down on its borders even further. In late 2008, the Mexican government launched an aggressive deportation plan to curtain illegal Cuban immigration and human trafficking through Cancun.
Meanwhile, Mexican consular offices in the United States have coordinated with left-wing social justice groups and the Catholic Church leadership to demand a moratorium on all deportations and a freeze on all employment raids across America.
Mexico is doing the job Arizona is now doing -- a job the U.S. government has failed miserably to do: putting its people first. Here's the proper rejoinder to all the hysterical demagogues in Mexico (and their sympathizers here on American soil) now calling for boycotts and invoking Jim Crow laws, apartheid and the Holocaust because Arizona has taken its sovereignty into its own hands:
Hipócritas.]

Well…first off….Rev. Al (not so sharp) Sharpton, answer this for me…..
If, as you say in this interview, that Immigration is “in the hands of the Federal Government”, then WHY is the FED. government NOT doing anything about it?
It would seem to me that if the Fed. government were taking care of the immigration issue, then the STATE would not have to “interfere”, with immigration.
It would appear that the REV. seems to think that the STATES should NOT interfere with Fed. law.
It just appears to me that the STATE is just giving the Federal Law some teeth in which to uphold their position on ‘ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION’.
You would think that honest, LEGAL, U.S. citizens would not mind in the least having to show proof of their citizenship……if it meant more JOBS open to them and safer streets.
