Chief Justice Roberts: "Seems ..the federal government just doesn’t want to know who’s here illegally"

By John W. Lillpop

On the heels of President Obama’s very trying day before the U.S. Supreme Court with respect to ObamaCare, the court gave indications that it may be ready to add to Obama’s woes by upholding SB 1070, Arizona’s immigration enforcement law.

As reported at the reference:
 


Supreme Court justices took a dim view of the Obama administration’s claim that it can stop Arizona from enforcing immigration laws, telling government lawyers during oral argument Wednesday that the state appears to want to push federal officials, not conflict with them.




The court was hearing arguments on Arizona’s immigration crackdown law, which requires police to check the immigration status of those they suspect are in the country illegally, and would also write new state penalties for illegal immigrants who try to apply for jobs.




The Obama administration has sued, arguing that those provisions conflict with the federal government’s role in setting immigration policy, but justices on both sides of the aisle struggled to understand that argument.




“It seems to me the federal government just doesn’t want to know who’s here illegally,” Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. said at one point."

Should the court find against ObamaCare and in favor of SB 1070, America will finally be on the road to recovery.

Defeating Obama and Congressional Democrats in November would let the world know in no uncertain terms that common sense and rule of law are making a come-back in America!
