Liberals are an emotional bunch. They never let facts get in the way of a good cry, and such has been the case with the Arizona immigration law which is scheduled to go into effect tomorrow.
Lately I've had a couple of posts about how illegals are selling their stuff and getting out of Arizona, and how the boycotts against the state seem to be backfiring. Why do you suppose that is? The law hasn't gone into effect yet. No one has been unfairly profiled. No one has had their ice cream eating interrupted by demands for their papers (remember that one from Obama?).
The law is already very effective because the people who oppose it so badly overplayed their hand. The handwringing from the left and bizarre claims of outrages yet unseen stirred up America in ways they never anticipated. Some 70% of Americans decided they liked what they were hearing about the law, and the panic being sowed by the liberals started driving illegals out of Arizona long before the law could take effect. Though they didn't plan it that way, the left has been the biggest booster of the Arizona law.
There's still a chance some judge could put the whole thing on hold but the damage has already been done. Other states are lining up their own similar laws and the tide of political attitudes in the country has clearly swung against amnesty or anything else that would reward lawbreaking. Thank you liberals.
Meanwhile, the foolishness continues.
