The Obama administration has wailed for weeks and weeks now about how the Arizona illegal immigration law will lead to racist arrests and mass civil rights violations.

I true american and lover of America would not sue a state... Did Reagan do it? Did the Bush's do it? Did Lincoln do it? If we call BS on it, we are called biggits. If we don't, its called communisum. Check Mate

The rule of law is what defines America. No branch of government should be able to pick and choose which laws to enforce.
When Obama obfuscates his oath to the constitution, he demonstrates his ability to govern a banana republic, and inability to govern America.
Don’t be fooled by his motivation, it’s not about the law; it’s about registering new voters who will overwhelmingly vote democrat.
Why do minorities in America consider themselves black/brown/Democrat first, and only secondly an individual?

Obama supports the law breakers and tries to sue Americans making an effort to uphold the law. Go figure

What do you expect from a mistake?

America made a mistake and in the attempt to not be seen as racist - America continues to let the mistake split. One splits into Two - Two into Four - Four into Eight.....and so on and so on.

More and more people are voicing their concerns but the mistake refuses to listen. There are numerous mistakes attached to the big mistake that is equally festering into an incurable difficult disease.

Obama and his cronies are like a bad virus and the American people are like the cells designed to fight a virus. Some attack it hard while others are not sure if they should but are slowly seeing the damage being done to the body and are trying to keep the virus from spreading.

I foresee a shot of penicillin coming in November. Unfortunately, lots of damage can be done between then and now.

How they vote in the United Nations:

Kuwait votes against the United States 67% of the time
Qatar votes against the United States 67% of the time
Morocco votes against the United States 70% of the time
United Arab Emirates votes against the U. S. 70% of the time.
Jordan votes against the United States 71% of the time.
Tunisia votes against the United States 71% of the time.
Saudi Arabia votes against the United States 73% of the time. Yemen votes against the United States 74% of the time.
Algeria votes against the United States 74% of the time.
Oman votes against the United States 74% of the time.
Sudan votes against the United States 75% of the time.
Pakistan votes against the United States 75% of the time.
Libya votes against the United States 76% of the time.
Egypt votes against the United States 79% of the time.
Lebanon votes against the United States 80% of the time.
India votes against the United States 81% of the time.
Syria votes against the United States 84% of the time.
Mauritania votes against the United States 87% of the time.

U S Foreign Aid to those that hate us: SOME EXAMPLES - Why do we pay taxes to a place capable of collecting taxes from their own people.

Egypt, for example, after voting 79% of the time against the United States, still receives $2 billion annually in US Foreign Aid. And we buy their oil with our money?

Jordan votes 71% against the United States and receives $192,814,000 annually in US Foreign Aid.

Pakistan votes 75% against the United States and receives $6,721,000 annually in US Foreign Aid.

India votes 81% against the United States receives $143,699,000 annually.

WHY? THEY ACTUALLY BITE THE HAND THAT FEEDS THEM.

Perhaps it is time to get out of the UN

Illegal imigrants not only hurt the economy it also makes the taxpayers hate them more. If they come to the States legally and don't get all the freebies that our government gives, then I have no problem with it. But this is America and the English language is the language we were taught to speak why should we have to learn another language or accomodate them. Learning another language is great and should taught, but when they come into our country they should learn the English language not the other way around. obama is giving America to other countries and selling us out. Pretty soon we won't have an America we will have a country that is owned by the chinese people.

This Nov. will be our last hope of stopping the rise of wealth redistribution. We are on the verge of more people dependent on Gov. handouts than there are people actually working and paying the bills, for those that think someone owes them a living, and to be kept up if they keep the Democrats in power.
The stupidity of the voters will finally be the end of our Republic. We will be just a foot-note in history, because once it goes it will never be in existence again, and we will gladly throw it out the window for the damn scraps the people in power hand out and you run to get a taste,instead of doing it on your own. What a shame!!!!!

"wealth distribution" is not what you think. Wealth is distributed up, not down. The income gap between the rich and poor has grown dramatically since the 80s. Considering that it is right around the time of massive de-regulation by the republican superhero Reagan, the so called rich did not earn their money honestly but rather by exploiting weaknesses in the system. That person down the street receiving food stamps is not the reason the middle class is shrinking. Trust me, that food stamp recipient is not living a luxurious life. Now on the other hand, the billionaire vacationing on his 2nd private island is more responsible for screwing the middle class. Lets de-regulate some more…??
Its funny to see how propaganda works..no where else can you get an entire population of somewhat educated people to believe that poor people are the reason for our country’s problems.

Redistribution of wealth is taking from those that earn the money, and give it to those that do not. No one is complaining about helping those that need a lift up. I personally know of families that have raised three generations on welfare and food stamps. I guess you think they should never get off their ass and earn a living without someone else providing earned money to them so they can lay up all day. There needs to be a limit on this benefit, and it ain't a year or longer. There are too many reasons for the gov. to hand out money. Not just unemployment you twit. What was the percentage of unemployment under my superhero Regan and now---A VERY BIG DIFFERENCE or do you know?
