THE BORDER REPORT

The Associated Press finds that the top immigration law administrators in the United States have never bothered to read Arizona's SB 1070 that was signed into law a month ago. Homeland Security Sec. Janet Napolitano was asked today by Sen. John McCain if she's read the law. She says: "I've not reviewed it in detail. I certainly know of it, Senator." U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder was asked last week "have you read the Arizona law?" "I have not had a chance to -- I've glanced at it. I have not read it," he said. Within 72 hours of 1070's passage, A.G. Holder had threatened to sue Arizona. So that's nice. Now, other than the president, can you name me one individual more instrumental in defining U.S. immigration and border security laws than the secretary of the Homeland Security Department and the Attorney General of the United States? This reminds me of Hillary Clinton being asked if she'd read the Bush Administration's case for Iraq back in 2002 and replying that no, she hadn't. Keep in mind that SB 1070 is 19 pages long. These people make my teeth hurt.
