Quote Unquote: What's the Point?

A journalist in response to Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer during her victory lap after yesterday's split Supreme Court decision…

Quote Unquote: Arizona Immigration Victory

Gov. Jan Brewer celebrates a strong conservative victory in today's SCOTUS opinion…

.

"Today's decision by the U.S. Supreme Court is a victory for the rule of law. It is also a victory for the 10th Amendment and all Americans who believe in the inherent right and responsibility of states to defend their citizens."

.

Sen. Chuck Schumer celebrates a strong liberal victory in today's SCOTUS opinion…

.

"This is as strong a repudiation of the Arizona law as one could expect given that the law has not been implemented yet. Three linchpins of the Arizona law were struck down by a convincing majority of the Court as clearly violating federal law, and a fourth is on thin legal ice."

.

Today is a good day to be a conservative/liberal.
