0bama, as a part of his Fundamental Transformation of the USA, has rewritten the presidential oath: “. . . . and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the selective parts of the Constitution of the United States, according to my interpretation”.
Justice Scalia noted in his dissent that it is ridiculous that the executive branch of the federal government under the leadership of Mr. Obama refuses to enforce standing statutes of federal law. States like Arizona wouldn’t need to try to enforce laws on the federal government’s behalf if Mr. Obama would simply perform the duties he is Constitutionally required to do.
seriously? people are for this SB1070 nonsense? detaining people without charges based on the “suspicion” that they might be illegal? the US farming industry is actually suffering because of decreased numbers of illegals coming in, and still people are eager to give up their constitutional rights to “crack down” harder.
The problem is that denialists like Romney and Hanmari say that Obama has done nothing on immigration enforcement, despite all the facts available to them. Conservatives have said “seal the border, and THEN we’ll talk about immigration reform,” and now are pretending that the border still needs to be sealed when net illegal immigration is zero. Immigration reform can’t happen under the GOP, because they aren’t prepared to recognize truth when it happens.
If only our federal government would make good on its Constitutionally-mandated responsibilities: Provide for the protection against foreign nations. A well-policed and secured border ensures that protection, and a poorly-policed and porous border compromises that protection. But, it’s okay! They were here already, so who cares, right?
HAHAHAHAHAHA. That answer is awesome. Because not only is Obama letting all these illegals through, but hes covering his ass by sending more of them back AND adding people at the border to stop them. Who needs TV when we have CONservatives for entertainment

Umm, this is about the Supreme Court defending selective parts of the constitution, not Obama. Look at the cartoon again.

Illegals come here for jobs. Republicans hire them and then complain that they are here.
