The furor over the Arizona immigration law is ridiculous when you stop to consider that the law merely consist of enforcing already existing federal immigration laws. But President Obama is going to sue over it anyways, despite the surging crime that Arizona is facing due to the never-ending flow of illegal immigrants, despite the fact that if his administration was doing its job then Arizona legislators wouldn’t have had to act. Governor Jan Brewer has taken the majority of the heat over this bill, but unlike the majority of politicians, she’s had the backbone to stand up for herself and for her state. She’s now released a new ad where she’s come out swinging against Barack Obama for blasting her while doing nothing to secure the border.
So the Obama position on Arizona is that it is safe, and therefore, a secure border is not needed. It’s just too dangerous for people to actually go there. If people have to be told that an area on the border is too dangerous to go to, due to drug smuggling and crime and human trafficking and kidnapping, then isn’t that an argument in and of itself? Obama just proved why Jan Brewer and Arizona legislators had to take decisive action.
Unlike Barack Obama, Jan Brewer actually values her country and her state, and as she says herself — she isn’t about to surrender her state to Mexico out of some stupid, misguided sense of political correctness.
The first job of government is to protect its citizens, and the Obama administration has failed miserably in that duty. Jan Brewer is simply doing the job that Obama won’t do.
Isn’t that what we say all of the illegal immigrants are doing?

Square in the black, Cassy. Arizona has an absolute right, as well as obligation, to protect it’s citizens and their property. This is especially true when the Federal Government either cannot or will not fulfill it’s own obligations.
Respects,
I understand from my radio guys that the declaration of this area as being “unsafe” actually precedes the Obama administration by a good stretch, I think the year they came up with was ’06. The signs themselves might go back that far.
Not that I give a rip about it. I leave it to you to decide if it’s worth mentioning. It’s all a big non-sequitur as far as I’m concerned, just the ritual-liberal-defensive-response-du-jour.
We saw from the McChrystal episode how Mister Holy responds when the threat is posed to His Divine Reputation, as opposed to the life and safety of ordinary men, women and children. Insult Him, and suddenly He’s mister-action, take-no-prisoners. Invade our country, steal cars, break into houses and rape women and it’s…aw, you guys clear out, it’s unsafe. Just a natural consequence of our having invaded North America in the first place.
Louella says: Obama’s Re-Election Promise
The promise of “a chicken in every pot and a car in every garage” can be traced to Hoover’s 1928 Presidential campaign.
Well, Obama has twisted these words and is promising that if he is re-elected there will be “a chick in every car and some pot in every garage!”
