"The Supreme Court has ruled on the Arizona immigration law, and upheld a key part of the law that allows local law enforcement officers to verify immigration status if an individual is detained for another potential legal issue.
The Washington Times announced the Obama administration’s response to this ruling as follows:
The Obama administration said Monday it is suspending existing agreements with Arizona police over enforcement of federal immigration laws, and said it has issued a directive telling federal authorities to decline many of the calls reporting illegal immigrants that the Homeland Security Department may get from Arizona police.
So there, Arizona.
From this response, we see the president displaying what we have, unfortunately, come to know as his usual imperious, immature, tit-for-tat, brand of leadership. It’s the kind of leadership that tells the nation that if anybody, including the Supreme Court, disses him, the country will suffer as a result. He is the kind of president who is “high maintenance,” a president whose ego needs continued stroking, or else his temper gets the best of him."
