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.

I talked to Jacob directly after the Monday meeting of the Twin City Tea Party:

I’ll be putting up a full post on the event later in the day.

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.

Joe Scarborough to Al Sharpton as he is leaving this Morning:

We are agreeing too much these days.

Joe I like you and I like Mika and I like Willie but if that statement doesn’t give you a clue that there is a problem then nothing will.

Will the talk about the vandalism by opponents of this bill with the same strength that the tea parties got hit for things that didn’t happen? I don’t know but it’s amazing that all I’m hearing is worries about what might potentially happen because of a law, vs what opponents of that law have ACTUALLY done.

C’mon Guys! Be reporters REPORT!
