Genuinely, a political party who offers no real solutions to a significant issue of concern cannot be deemed as altruistic. And by, “alienating the opposing party with an ‘anti-Hispanic’ innuendo,” there is nothing productive or helpful for America that results (2). Furthermore, the article discusses how President Bush has “championed the immigrant cause” (1). At least, he is not making false accusations about the other party, is actually addressing the problem, and is trying to help foster effective solutions. It is most certainly more than the other party is doing.
Backers say illegal immigration has created public safety and economic crises. At issue is whether states have any authority to step in to enforce immigration matters or whether that is the exclusive role of the federal government. In dry legal terms, this constitutional question is known as pre-emption. Other states watch for outcome Paul Clement, lawyer for Arizona, told the high court the federal government has long failed to control the problem, and that states have discretion to assist in enforcing immigration laws. But the Obama administration's solicitor general, Donald Verrilli, strongly countered that assertion, saying immigration matters are under the federal government's exclusive authority and state "interference" would only make matters worse.
One needs to know the rationale behind that agreement. Also, even if Iraqi president refuses the ultimatum, George Bush assumes that U.S will be harsh. That may not necessarily be the case. Despite giving a poor argument throughout most of the letter, there are some supporting evidences so that the writer can give justification of his action. An example of this is when he informs the President that Arab and Muslim countries are also against them along with 28 countries providing military support against Iraq.
President Obama criticized the bill shortly before Ms. Brewer signed it. The Arizona law, he said, “ threatened to undermine basic notions of fairness that we cherish as Americans, as well as the trust between police and our communities that is so crucial to keep us safe.”(New York Times). It has raised many issues that the law is unfair and the legislation leads to racial profiling. The bill does not list the characteristics officers will be looking
But as with his refusal to enforce our immigration laws, President Obama rules like he is above the law." Politifact gave this statement a “Pants on fire” rating because researchers found the claim is a drastic distortion of what the Obama administration said it intends to do. By
Legal residents of Arizona are granted the option to sue if they feel a local agency’s policies interfere with the enforcement of federal immigration law. It makes it a criminal offense if an individual picking up a day laborer interferes with the normal flow of traffic. The law does not allow an undocumented immigrant to search for work in any public place. These are merely a select handful of issues within SB 1070. Once this law was announced, there was an enormous public outcry of opposition.
So who’s really the victim? In fact, the real problem is we are not looking at the entire situation. Instead we decide to just put forth our opinions and feelings about immigration without really taking into consideration what would the United States be without it. As a part of my study on this controversy I read two articles: US Immigration Support org (UIS). “Illegal Immigration from Mexico,” and “Mexican Immigration to the U.S: the latest estimates,” by Jeffrey Passel.
response to EMBRYONIC STEM CELL RESEARCH: THE BLOOD TRAIL OF PROGRESS Paul A. Ibbetson a writer for The Conservative Crusader, defends and also attempts to clarify the typical conservative stance on stem cells in his article “Embryonic Stem Cell Research: the Blood Trail of Progress”. Ibbetson fails to justify his point that non-embryonic stem cell research is viable while embryonic stem cell research is immoral due to a number of errors in his delivery. The foremost among these is the logical fallacy of appeal to consequences; Ibbetson makes a half-hearted attempt to compare Hitler’s policy on genocide akin to Obama’s position on stem cell research, yet never truly explains the explanation. Another logical fallacy presented towards the

(“Immigration: In the Vanguard”, 1999, p. 32) In simplest terms illegal aliens are illegal and like any crime their presence must be controlled. Moreover, their presence and employment is manifestly unjust as they are taking resources and opportunities from legitimate citizens. Therefore, it is essential that the government continue to police illegal immigration and commits resources to that task. In the words of President Clinton, “We must say no to illegal immigration so we can continue to say yes to legal immigration.” (“Immigration Reform: The Issues”, p.
