interesting you said that i went over it with a fine tooth comb i thought count one after the recitation of facts would be the state law passed by the legislature in arizona violates all sorts of constitutional principles because it engages in overt racial profiling. but it didn t say that there s pass references to it, but that s it. what they are concerned about more is i think, in the lawsuit they said, this arizona state law interferes with the federal government s ability to enforce and engage in immigration policies. i agree with governor brewer. i think it complements the federal law i don t think it confounds the federal law. greta: racism is a terrible thing. a racist is a very bad person. falsely accusing someone of racism is not good either. the people of arizona and the
we do mind you going beyond it and we are going to smack you down and keep you in place i think it is saber rattling by the obama administration. greta: except it is bad if they lose. oh boy, yeah. greta: senator jon kyl joins us on the phone. your reaction to your state being sued as well as your governor in her official capacity? greta thanks. first of all i agree with your last guest in is troublesome. what the federal government in effect is saying is, leave it to us. the state of arizona has no bisque involved in immigration enforcement. has no bisque involved in immigration. now, if the federal government had been doing its job, arizona would not have passed a law. everybody concedes the federal government has not controlled the border. it has not yet been able to enforce the visa exit-entry system. as a result, when it faces a lawsuit on the proposition
achievements in science and technology. he came up with a fund to promote technological development in majority of muslim countries. we now know he enlisted nasa in this effort. the interview that charles bolden gave with al-jazeera was on a trip that bolden the administrator of nasa made to kay row on the one year anniversary of the pre s speech in is the president s policy not the policy coming out of nasa. greta: as luck would have it we were in cairo for that speech. we were lucky enough to hear it in person. i guess we still are struggling, what about nasa? nasa has been stripped down quite a bit. talk about self-esteem, it is exciting for self-esteem when you see what can be. it is a little disheartening if we are using the head of nasa to do something different. i spoke with michael griffin the administrator of
declared constitutional on their face and i think this will not be. you have to say this is a political exercise rather than legal exercise. greta: i may be in the minority on this one of the advantages is, this lawsuit filed without the racial profiling as a specific allegation. which i think is hugely significant. that has been bandied around, a political hot button that s the reason why cities have boycott, no one bothered to read the statute. maybe they will take the lead from the president and the justice department and revisit whether to boycott your state. even the federal government isn t making that allegation. that s a very good point. we do not want to have a buy could the of arizona that s silly, the very people you are trying to help would be most hurt. you are right the arizona statute explicitly prohibits racial profiling. let s wait and see how the police officers enforce this law, the law says they cannot racially profile. they ve been trained if that
don t hire people who are not eligible to be hired, to say who are not in the country legally. another thing the arizona statutes, three years ago established and the federal government is challenging that in court as well, which i find very, very ironic. greta: senator, i m sorry, i guess i lost you for a second, i thank you very much for joining us, sir. thank you greta. greta: coming up, democratic arizona congresswoman calls the lawsuit a sideshow that is just the beginning. she has more to say you go to arizona next. it has been rough between levi johnston and governor sarah palin. tonight he has a new message for sarah palin and her family. what is that message? find out minutes from now. plus, the new orleans saints star quarterback drew brees is here. tells you about becoming super bowl mvp and something huge that happened in his life today. drew brees, coming up.
