The <\/font>ridiculous lawsuit<\/font><\/a> the DOJ is bringing against Arizona could be called the 'empty suit suit' inasmuch as  behind it are a bunch of empty suits in line behind the Empty Suit in Chief.

It is nice to know that not everything in The Arizona Republic<\/em>, the local rag of record, is liberal-left buncombe.  See Chuck Coughlin, <\/font>Secure Border Can Provide Big Dividends<\/font><\/a>.  But the journalistic crapweasels of The AZ Republic<\/em> really do deserve our contempt.  How many weeks did it take them before they began correctly reporting the content of S.B. 1070?  Like Eric Holder, Janet Napolitano, and Obama, they apparently believed that one can speak responsibly about something about which one knows nothing.  But I do admit that the aforesaid journalistic crapweasels have cleaned up their act somewhat.  One wonders what goes on in the J-schools around the land.  I'm not sure I want to know.<\/font><\/p>\n

Fifty years ago, immigration policy might have driven immigration numbers, but today the numbers drive policy. The nonstop increase of immigration is reshaping the language and the law to dissolve any distinction between legal and illegal aliens and, ultimately, the very idea of national borders.<\/font><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

That's certainly right: the numbers now drive the policy.  And it may be  too late to stop the illegal immigrant juggernaut which is of course aided and abetted by the intellectually irresponsible elision of the legal\/illegal distinction by its  liberal-left enablers.  <\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
