In Posner's defense, America did intern people often for no just cause under Democratic icon Franklin Roosevelt.

And Dick Cheney totally trafficked human kidneys. Not for transplant, just to use on his air hockey table.

November will be sweet!!

In Posner's defense, America did intern people often for no just cause under Democratic icon Franklin Roosevelt.

Posner wasn't talking about America's past sins. He was talking about the Arizona immigration law.

Posner is an "open borders idiot". I can only hope for the day when "Roberto" takes over Posner's job for 1/2 the money.

Just more of Barry's "Best and brightest".

feelings uber alles!

Liberal statists hate States Rights. Arizona represents the war that this regime is waging against America. Arizona threw a wrench into the regimes plans to roll over America with "comprehensive Immigration reform" which is code for 30 million new Democrat voters. Posner was just voicing his and the regimes contempt for this country. Everyone, or at least all of the Republicans, should be shouting for his firing. I'm not holding my breath.

Jewish Federation of Southern Arizona calls for immigration reform

3. Tucson, (KGUN9-TV/JFSA)- The Jewish Federation of Southern Arizona is calling on federal immigration reform. The group said it has serious concerns about Arizona's new immigration law.
4. The Jewish Community Relations Council released the following statement:
5. The Jewish Community Relations Council of the Jewish Federation of Southern Arizona has serious concerns about the new law, Immigration: Law Enforcement; Safe Neighborhoods Act (SB 1070) and its potential impact on human rights and human dignity. We acknowledge the need for a more secure border and comprehensive immigration reform that places priority on the safety and security of Arizona's citizens, and thus urge Congress to immediately introduce comprehensive immigration reform that will address fair legal immigration policies and a commitment to enforcement that respects human dignity and human rights for all.
6. As members of the Jewish community who have been considered "strangers" throughout history, we know well the fear of living as "outsiders." The Torah (Hebrew Bible) states that we "shall have one law for the stranger and the citizens alike" (Leviticus 24:22), and tells us seventeen distinct times to "Love the stranger." In addition, we are commanded to establish a fair justice system and to "judge the people with righteous justice" (Deuteronomy 16:12). These passages provide great relevance with respect to the rights of immigrants.
7. With this law, local law enforcement officers who have "reasonable suspicion" about a person's immigration status are required to demand immigration papers. We are concerned that this will create distrust between local law enforcement and those they are sworn to serve and protect. We are also concerned that members of the immigrant and Latino communities, both legal citizens and non-citizens, will be reluctant to report crimes or to cooperate with local law enforcement out of fear of discrimination for or separation from their families and themselves.
8. We hope bipartisan support will address a fair immigration policy, as our nation is committed to enforcement that respects human dignity and human rights.

Who We Are
Founded in 1987, the ACLU Immigrants' Rights Project is dedicated to expanding and enforcing the civil liberties and civil rights of non-citizens and to combating public and private discrimination against immigrants. For more than twenty years, the IRP has been at the forefront of almost every major legal struggle on behalf of immigrants' rights through class action lawsuits, law reform litigation, judicial rulings and legal advocacy. IRP has won nationwide injunctions, established major precedents and litigated leading cases in the United States Supreme Court, including Demore v. Kim and the landmark INS v. St. Cyr, which upheld immigrants' right to habeas corpus and reversed the retroactive deportation of longtime legal residents.
What We Do
The IRP brings strategic impact litigation throughout the country; provides leadership and legal analysis on constitutional, civil rights and civil liberties issues to immigration advocates, community-based groups and the immigration bar; engages in advocacy and public education and supports the work of the ACLU's affiliates.
Why We Do It
The fundamental constitutional protections of due process and equal protection embodied in our Constitution and Bill of Rights apply to every "person" and are not limited to citizens. The framers of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights as well as the authors and ratifiers of post-Civil War amendments, all understood the essential importance of protecting non-citizens against governmental abuse and discrimination.
Our nation has unquestioned authority to control its borders and to regulate immigration. But we must exercise the awesome power to exclude or deport immigrants consistent with the rule of law, the fundamental norms of humanity and the requirements of the Constitution.
The ACLU was born in the 1920's during the "Red Scare," a time when then U.S. Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer was ordering immigrants summarily detained and deported because of their political views. That was the beginning of the ACLU's long work challenging unconstitutional laws and practices to make the Constitution a living document for everyone in the country. The ACLU has defended the Constitution's guarantees on behalf of the foreign-born and immigrants ever since.
Upholding the rights of immigrants is important to us all. When the government has the power to deny legal rights and due process to one vulnerable group, everyone's rights are at risk. Non-citizens are often the first and most vulnerable targets of government abuse.

Clean-up on aisles 7&8, moronic spambot alert.

A moronic spambot whose writer still confuses legal and illegal immigrants, at that.

NOTE to 7,8 and 9....

Feel better now?

Regardless, go the fuck away.

The chinese must have had one good long laugh after our delegation left.

We look like buffoons. Need to borrow absurd amounts of money from them to fund our debt and then we grovel and apologize for enforcing our borders. The chinese must think we've lost our minds.

Um. . I distinctly remember that the coziness with the Chicoms was an issue from CLinton, straight through the bush years and still now, although Bush was never quite so blatant as THIS. . . .

Bush the Elder had a bit of a China-syndrome issue too, though that probably stemmed from his having been sent there by Jerry Ford. Poppy is one of those guys who, if you're nice to him you've made a friend for life -- just like with the Saudis.

To some extent Dubya apparently inherited that tendency.

7 - this is about ILLEGAL NOT LEGAL immigration you tool!

"7 - this is about ILLEGAL NOT LEGAL immigration you tool!"

Seriously? The Dems can't tell the difference between the two concepts, and they don't want to learn.

"The chinese must think we've lost our minds."

It's the water inside the Beltway. The whole area's polluted with toxic ideas. Move out the monuments and museums, wall it off, put all the politicians in detox for five or ten years.

Make Cheyenne, Wyoming the Nation's Capitol, and you'll see government shrink FAST.

Max9010 is good at cut and paste, perhaps he can cut and paste ALL THE LAWS that illegal's are EXEMPT from. This would save us all a lot of time.

Where's the appology?

"Where's the apology?"

Q Did the recently passed Arizona immigration law come up? And if so, did they bring it up? Or did you bring it up?

MR. POSNER: We brought IT UP EARLY AND OFTEN. It was MENTIONED IN THE FIRST SESSION and AS A TROUBLING TREND IN OUR SOCIETY, and an indication that WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH ISSUES OF DISCRIMINATION or potential discrimination. And these are issues very much being debated in our own society.

So when has Barry cleared his busy schedule for the next Bow down in Beijing?

More importantly, when is Barry going to apologize for the damage hes done to our economy? Aren't those 20 million jobs he axed violations of human rights?

I for one think it's great they can teach challenged kids like max9010 to cut and paste and perform other simple tasks.

Wow. max9010 qualifies as weapons-grade stupid.

Show your support for democracy in China!
