Dem Party Appointed Judge Bolton Takes Aim at Arizona

The President Clinton appointed Federal Judge - Susan Bolton - has handed President Barack Hussein Obama mixed bagged victory in relation to Arizona State Immigration Law SB Bill 1070. Judge Bolton has taken much of the political teeth that drove Leftists, Democrats and BHO crazy out of SB 1070. Judge Bolton DID NOT strike the whole Arizona Immigration down. There are still enforcement parts that still gives Arizona law enforcement some ability to tighten an illegal alien immigration net. The part stricken down however still allows holes in the American border along Arizona to skate through AND apply for work in Arizona. In essence Judge Bolden has accomplished the shameful act of ignoring the Constitution by making Federal Policy rather than ruling on the Constitutionality of a law.

Here are some reaction quotes of note courtesy of Blogs for Victory:

“This fight is far from over. In fact, it is just the beginning, and at the end of what is certain to be a long legal struggle, Arizona will prevail in its right to protect our citizens.” – Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer in her official statement to the press…

…”We are deeply disappointed in the court’s ruling today and disagree with the court’s opinion that the Arizona’s law will unduly ‘burden’ the enforcement of federal immigration law. Instead of wasting taxpayer resources filing a lawsuit against Arizona and complaining that the law would be burdensome, the Obama Administration should have focused its efforts on working with Congress to provide the necessary resources to support the state in its efforts to act where the Federal government has failed to take responsibility.” – Joint Statement by U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., and Sen. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz…

…”Today’s ruling does not strike down SB1070. Her ruling only puts a hold on a few parts of the new law. That’s why her actions today are called a preliminary injunction. Those who are here in this state illegally, my deputies will still ask about their status in this country and will arrest on existing state and federal immigration violations. State violators will be booked into my jail and federal violators will be turned over to authorities.” – Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio

THE FOUNDRY provides the Slanted Right opinion of Judge Bolton’s ruling.
