FYI
Obama and others possibly had some clue that their lies and demagoguery would not fly in court.

Since when has this administration cared about the constitution?

The whole basis of this stupid lawsuit is essentially, “It’s my job, not yours.”
Then they have the audacity to claim that they can’t do their job!..............
If Holder said the Arizona law was discriminatory he'd be admitting that the federal law it mirrors is discriminatory.
The fact that Arizona's law is a nearly verbatim copy of the federal law poses a serious, serious problem for Misters Holder and Soetoro.

“The lawsuit goes on to say that a “state may not establish its own immigration policy or enforce state laws in a manner that interferes with the federal immigration laws. The Constitution and the federal immigration laws do not permit the development of a patchwork of state and local immigration policies throughout the country.”
The problem is the state law looks like the federal law.

Further reading of the suit seems to say that Arizonas new law, which they cite as generally attrition through enforcement, ignores the objectives of the federal immigration system, which they say primarily is the arrest and detention of those aliens who pose a danger to national security or a risk to public safety. (Reading pages 15 through 22)
So, in other words, since Arizona actually DOESNT discriminate between illegal aliens, the suit says DHS, DOJ, and the executive branch is hindered in their right TO discriminate based on the value, danger, humanitarian need of specific illegals......or at least thats the why I interpreted it.

So it seems as if instead of accusing the AZ law of discrimination they are instead claiming that AZ is taking away their right to discriminate. How ironic is that?
I would think that the 14th Amendment could be a factor being that the DOJ does not want the law equally enforced for all but instead wants to pick and choose in regards to where, when and with who the law is enforced.
Did you read the damn bill yet Eric?
The truly hilarious thing that the Obama admin is studiously avoiding the fact that if not a majority, a great percentage of Dems are for stiffer immigration laws. In short, the Obama admin is riling a lot of loyal Dems who see nothing wrong in trying to keep illegals controlled. The Obama admin pretends that all Dems agree with their stand for uncontrolled immigration, but very few average Dems actually do.
The issue here has nothing to do with discrimination. The suit is a tool by the central government to claim complete jurisdiction over anything having to do with illegal immigration. Their goal is that if they succeed with this suit, it will effectively remove almost all legal roadblocks for them to declare universal amnesty for all illegals.
The very same thing could be said of what is happening with the horrendous oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico.
But...but...but...
Holder and Obama know that, that is why they could not add it to the suit.
Ping!
