Here is the headline from the AP:

Illegal immigrants plan to leave over Ariz. law

If I’m a conservative I would trumpet this headline in every state and every county and every newspaper, I would call up every congressman and woman and ask for comment on this result. I would bring up this law in every state legislature and let the democrats try to oppose it.

If you think the public is supporting the Arizona law now, wait till they get a load of this.

Update: The Anchoress suggests the left is trying to bait us.

Update 2: I don’t know about memeorandum but the Lonely Conservative is always welcome here.

Morning Joe on the Arizona law

Morning Joe is taking the other side of the story today.

Pat Buchanan is mentions the Mexican government’s laws against illegal immigration in passing

Joe and Mika mention the Rasmussen Poll.

They hit Mexico’s response of a travel warning.

They still hit the bill but they are giving the other side, but God bless em they are committing journalism!

Will Nancy Pelosi call Mexico’s Laws on illegal immigration an outrage?

I’m not going to hold my breath on that one.

Lucky for us Michelle Malkin covers the story:

  1. The Mexican government will bar foreigners if they upset “the equilibrium of the national demographics.”
  2. The Mexican government will bar outsiders if they do not enhance the country’s “economic or national interests”
  3. The Mexican government will bar outsiders not found to be physically or mentally healthy
  4. The Mexican declares outsides must not be economic burdens on society

Am I missing something here?  We haven’t even gotten into punishments.

Even more amusing is George Will who points out two different ironies.

Arizona’s law makes what is already a federal offense — being in the country illegally — a state offense. Some critics seem not to understand Arizona’s right to assert concurrent jurisdiction.

How dare those wacky conservatives make federal laws state laws.

It is passing strange for federal officials, including the president, to accuse Arizona of irresponsibility while the federal government is refusing to fulfill its responsibility to control the nation’s borders.

How dare those irresponsible Arizonans dare to do what the Federal government said it would do…years ago.

I think the media and the democrats are really foolish to push this.

The Human shields of the media

One thing that has really struck me about the Arizona Law has been the almost united media reaction of how dare they.

They are beating their breasts, calling them Nazis, vowing not to do business in Arizona and posturing themselves to prove how pure they are on civil rights by bravely standing in opposition to the people of Arizona and their police.

Yet they won’t show a clip of Southpark without censoring Mohammed’s image.

That is why I call them the media human shields. Like the one’s in Iraq they “bravely” stood up to American troops fully knowing that they were in no danger from them. The media likewise will bravely stand up to Arizona police and voters because they know their “bravery” puts them in absolutely no danger.

They will however not stand up to radical Islam for the same reason why those same human shields would not go to Israel during rocket attacks nor during China during protest. They know the difference between real danger and posturing and won’t risk their necks.
