into a Constitutional crisis, an astute attorney who is well-versed in
Constitutional law states that the ruling against the state of Arizona
by Judge Susan Bolton concerning its new immigration law is illegal.
The attorney in question submitted her assertion in a special
article in the Canada Free Press. Her argument states in part,
"Does anyone read the U.S. Constitution these days? American
lawyers don’t read it. Federal Judge Susan R. Bolton apparently has
never read it. Same goes for our illustrious Attorney General Eric
Holder. But this lawyer has read it and she is going to show you
something in Our Constitution which is as plain as the nose on your
face.
"Article III, Sec. 2, clause 2 says:
"In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and
Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court
shall have original Jurisdiction. In all the other Cases before
mentioned, the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction."
In other words, the Judge in the Arizona case has absolutely no
Constitutional jurisdiction over the matter upon which she ruled. As
the Constitution makes abundantly clear, only the U.S. Supreme Court
can issue rulings that involve a state.
This means that neither Judge Bolton nor the 9th Circuit Court
of Appeals in San Francisco, to which the case is being appealed, have
any legal standing whatsoever to rule on the issue.
Thus, U.S. Attorney-General Eric Holder filed the federal
government's lawsuit against the state of Arizona in a court that has
no authority to hear the case.
The attorney whose heads-up thinking concerning the Constitution
provides the legal remedy for dealing with this blatant disregard for
Constitutional law in the article at Canada Free Press, which can be
accessed at the link above.
In a related development, another explosive discovery was made
by those who actually take the Constitution seriously. The
Constitution specifically allows an individual state to wage war
against a neighboring country in the event of an invasion, should
there be a dangerous delay or inaction on the part of the federal
government. This information was cited by United Patriots of America.
From Article I, Section 10 of the U.S. Constitution, we find
these words: "No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, engage
in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will
not admit of delay."
No one who is actually familiar with the crisis at the southern
border can deny that Arizona is endangered by the relentless assault
of lawless Mexican invaders who ignore our laws, inundate our schools
and medical facilities with unpaid bills, and even endanger the very
lives of citizens with criminal drug cartels that engage in
kidnapping, murder, human trafficking, and other mayhem, including
aiming missile and grenade launchers directly at U.S. border cities
from just across the Mexican border.
This is every bit as much of an invasion as the nation of Iran
sending in a fleet of warships to the Port of Charleston.
The Constitution that forms the basis of the rule of law in this
country says that Arizona has legal right to protect itself in the
case of inaction or delay on the part of the federal government,
including waging war in its self-defense.
This, when coupled with the clear Constitutional mandate that
only the Supreme Court hear cases involving the states, should be
ample legal basis for attorneys representing Arizona to go after the
federal government with a vengeance.
Governor Jan Brewer and the stalwart members of the Arizona
legislature have ample legal reason to stand firm against the illegal
bullying of an arrogant, lawless federal government.
