PHOENIX (AP) - Gov. Jan Brewer says it's just a "bump in the road" that a federal judge blocked key parts of Arizona's immigration enforcement law from taking effect Thursday.
Brewer says she's disappointed by the ruling.
But she notes that it doesn't block a provision barring local governments from restricting the enforcement of federal immigration laws.
Brewer says the fight isn't over and that the state will soon appeal Judge Susan Bolton's ruling to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals and to the U.S. Supreme Court if necessary.
In Brewer's words, "this fight is far from over."

Do what Obowma did, just ignore it ...
Remember the drilling moratorium? Just write a new law and send it forth.
Ignore it Governor. Let your lawyers appeal, but in the meantime. Ignore the ruling and step up the rhetoric.
Who will be the first American murdered under this ruling? Their blood will be on Bolton and Obama’s hands.
The Ninth Circuit (rolling eyes). Translation, appealed to the SCOTUS.
Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard:
Jan Brewer played politics with immigration, and she lost.
Rather than providing the leadership Arizona needs to solve the immigration problem, Jan Brewer signed a bill she could not defend in court which has led to boycotts, jeopardized our tourism industry and polarized our state. It is time to look beyond election year grandstanding and begin to repair the damage to Arizona’s image and economy.
Perhaps now we in Arizona can focus on effective steps to fight border crime and keep our families safe. Now we can focus on steps, such as the ones I have been taking, to go after border crime and cut off the cash that flows to organized criminal cartels that smuggle thousands into the U.S.

This joke is runnign against Gov. Brewer. I hope he is humiliated in defeat.
Yep ignore it. It’s time.
I don’t get it. The narrative doesn’t sufficiently elaborate what this jerk judge decided.
I assumed she would overturn it, given statements she had made, but given comments about this issue from constitutional attorneys, I would expect any appeals, ultimately to SCOTUS, would be successful.
I think Arizona should have IGNORED the case entirely, refused to plead, and proceed with enforcing the state law.
Its time the states start to take action to nullify idiotic court decisions and idiotic edicts from the moron in the White House.
Remember that the Ninth Circuit rejected a challenge of Arizona’s E-Verify law by refusing to review a decision upholding it. The Ninth Circuit is nothing if not consistently inconsistent.
It would be REAALLY nice if Hayworth could make political hay of this decision and use it to bump that RINO McCain out in the primary.
Don’t APPEAL it you dumb broad, IGNORE IT!!! Tell your troopers, etc to ENFORCE THE LAW! Tell the citizens of Arizona to make their OWN stops of suspected illegals!!! Hire actual CITIZENS to defend the border.
But she notes that it doesn’t block a provision barring local governments from restricting the enforcement of federal immigration laws.

Great. If only Joe Arpaio was the norm. Instead there are morons like Pima County Sheriff Dupnik who called the law stupid.
It is a bump, and it was also very predictable. This was bound to happen. So, let the appeals begin.
I think this ruling today - as I understand it - is like a temporary restraining order.
No final verdict has been issued. And even when it is issued, it will be appealed and bumped to to the 9th circus.
Then on to the lesbians at the Supreme Court.
Can anyone say Yippeee?
So it’s ok to ignore Federal Law, but not ok to enforce it.
OK....
Time out, Gov. Brewer. Judge Bolton’s ruling today is just a temporary injunction against enforcing certain portions of SB1070.
The actual trial hasn’t even occured yet, so there is nothing to appeal yet except for removing the temporary injunction.
The ruling today is a ruling in favor of Open Borders, which is exactly what the Obama Administration and the Liberals want. The Open Border rhetoric has been cranking up as of late.
Why have Passports?
Why have Citizen tests?
Why have residency requirements to vote, collect Social Security, receive financial aid, or run for office?
See where this is going....?
Remember November....
Anyone want to guess how the “Wise Latina” will someday vote...I mean, rule...?
This judge had to distort what the law said in order to rule against it. She admits taking one sentence out of context, ignoring the preceding and following sentences, and using that as her basis for ruling. It was very dishonest.
Roger that. The 9th circuit has come down on the right side of several immigration issues. Regardless this is headed to the Supreme Court.
I’m glad to hear from her so soon after the expected ruling by the Fed sycophant Judge.
She sounds upbeat, and positive, and will proceed in the direction best for Arizona, and this Nation me thinks.
I believe she knows well how important this action by Arizona is. As well as Obama and crew as they are afraid. Very afraid of hers, and Arizona’s success.
Arizona should swear in a calvary posse and ride down the illegals and put a bounty on them.
Is this a “ruling” or just a temporary injunction - I hear different stories.
She'll beats him by 20 pts or more.
I wonder how many other federal laws are currently being enforced by the states? There has to be quite a few from bank robbery to drug trafficking. Perhaps this ruling should be fully applied and the states should simply leave enforcement to the feds. If its a violation of the supremacy clause to enforce this statute, then it would be a similar violation to enforce all other co-concurrent statutes.
It’s temporary. But the final ruling? Will be the same.
Then it goes to the 9th Circuit. Then the Supreme Court.
Then the streets.
United States v. Arizona — How 'Bout United States v. Rhode Island?
Good Advice!
As a 30+ year resident of AZ I can tell you that most
Arizona Citizens have learned to ignore the Feds a long
time ago.
The people of Arizona have ways of getting things done.
Be sure to vote in November.
Obama is just a flash in the pan. Everything he thinks he's getting done will be rescinded and repealed.
I think her confirmation 10/3/2000 was by unanimous consent. At least the Congressional record reports it mentioning any vote. Thus JD can try to tie the judge’s decision to McCain confirming her. Dang rulling class always wants the credit, but never the responsibility for their actions. Tar them together, JD, and let the voters bring the feathers.
.
What AZ is doing is known as concurrent enforcement: a person can only be guilty under state law if guilty under the federal law.
Correctly, the Lefty black-robed clowns at the 9th Circus Court of Appeals – the most overturned court in the system got it right and has gone along with that concept.
1st Circuit Court of Appeals - Estrada v. Rhode Island upheld Rhode Island procedures, reasoning that, in Muehler v. Mena, the Supreme Court “held that a police officer does not need independent reasonable suspicion to question an individual about her immigration status…”
And the USSC - De Canas v. Bica (1976): States may enact legislation to discourage illegal immigration within their jurisdictions.
Goddard's a DemocRAT - what else would you expect him to say? And, since you haven't been following this issue too carefully, let me enlighten you: Brewer's a she, not a he.
I think most of those charges against George III hold against Barack Hussein I.
I KNOW what Sam Adams would be thinking right about now.
We need more people like him.
Fits like a velvet glove...

“No final verdict has been issued. And even when it is issued, it will be appealed and bumped to to the 9th circus.”
Bingo. Brewer must be stunned by the lack of judicial objectivity here, and she apparently knows little about the 9th Circus.
Love those quotes on your homepage.
Specially the one from the Marines.
I hope he is humiliated in defeat.
Who is the 'he' I'm referring to?
Hint: The answer is the subject. Referred to in the previous sentence.
Brawling Brewer will Battle in a Cage Match in the 9th Circus then onto the SCOTUS
The appeal will force the real showdown.
It is a temporary bump, but I hope that Obama offered Bolton a plum job out of state because she has just become the most hated person in Arizona.

The ninth has made a couple decent decisions lately, but I don’t trust the liberal packed bunch. Then it will go to the Supremes, with Obama’s new pick. We’re toast.
The Ninth Circuit will consider this law to being a kin to secession and strike it down. Then this case can go to the Supreme Nine (don't ask the Ninth to rehear en banc - waste of time). They will likely grant cert. Then this case will come down to Justice Kennedy (we already know how the other eight will vote).
No we’re not, Obama’s pick is replacing a reliably liberal vote. I really do think Kennedy will come down on the side of the people. It may be a 5-4 decision but I think the 5 will stand with us.
This is a perfect opportunity to get this to the SC and have it heard. The judge’s ruling is as predictable as it is lacking in logic or an iota of the law. She was, afterall, a Clintoon appointee. The dems don’t make the dame ind of mistakes Pubbies do with their appointments.
IMHO this is a lose-lose for The Marxist Onada. If he had ignored it many other states would have followed AZ’s lead. Taking AZ to court only delays the inevitable. Also, many of those people without jobs must be saying WTF. It is clear that the potential for the ilegal votes trumps putting Americans to work.
I’ve been waiting for one, just one, conservative candidate to point the obvious. If I were holding my breath I’d be dead. The only conservative candidate making any effort to take Onada on is Palin. But she seems to be holding back.
If she’s a serius candidate she needs to come out swinging at every opportunity on every issue or her window of opportunity will close. Nov. is not far away and no so-called conservative candidate has taken charge. Romney is a RINO, Huckaby is a huckster, Jindal has been to quiet and the Pauls are libertarian’s first last and always.
Times up Sarah. Either commit and engage or go away. If it’s your intent to run a campaign on Onada’s mistakes rather than what you believe you’ve lost me. The usurping Onada’s policies are providing cornucopia of failure. Contrasting what you believe should be easy to do. This election is all about a vision for America’s future.
Do we return to what made this country the greatest economic engine and social leveler the world has ever known—via our Constitution and capitalism—or do we go down the failed socialist road? It’s as simple as that.
Brewer for President. Gutsy lady
Brewer for President. Gutsy lady
Americans are not in favor of this ruling, and this will bite Hussein and Holder in the ass BIG TIME.
Americans will take care of this problem, and the result will be greater liberty for this nation and a repudiation of ObamaFascism.
Dad was the Marine, Korean War.
I was Airborne Infantry, Texas Army Guard.
Brother was Air Force, Viet Nam.
Dad made sure we knew what was what. Riflemen FIRST.
Then pick which Branch you want.
.
I completely agree.
But, our problem is that most of those on the right still labor under the illusion that we are a nation of laws, not men. That the other side would abide by a ruling against them, that the "law" is even relevant anymore. As an object lesson for our side: drilling moratorium.
