So much for the settled law theory. Since it has not been politically wise to change existing immigration laws during the last decade, the Executive Branch along with support from Democrat-controlled big city mayors, have been quietly telling immigration and border protection line officers to “not be all that concerned” if they run into any…

To wit: American Progress makes ten arguments, each of which either references another left wing…

Today, the United States Supreme Court granted the petition filed by the state of Arizona to hear the case concerning the state’s immigration law passed in April, 2010. (See: page 2, case number 11-182 of the link). This was an appeal from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeal’s decision finding many of the provisions of Arizona’s…
