| MontanaHatchet said: The second paragraph of the article actually worried me a lot more. I don't know how to copy and paste, but it's the one that talks about how President Obama should basically override the bill if it's not vetoed (or something to that effect). I don't support the law at all, but it's interesting nonetheless. |
What I think. (or hope) would be the case is they mean that Obama should put his lawyers to work to assert that border control is a federal authority offense because you are breaking into the country, even when you are breaking into a state.
So it's a federal crime, not a state crime.... so the law shouldn't be able to be passed. It's either that... or that he will pass a law that will override the state law somehow.
Either way, it's a bad move for Republicans. In a bunch of other states, they are courting hispanics to be a counter to the Tea Party movement.
Obama's getting hit on all sides lately. In California his speech was interupted by gay rights activists. The kind that want more gay rights not less.
