In a new twist in the fight over Arizona’s immigration law, Republican Gov. Jan Brewer on Tuesday asked a federal court to disallow foreign governments from joining the U.S. Department of Justice lawsuit to overturn the law.
The move comes in response to a 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling issued Monday, allowing nearly a dozen Latin American countries — Mexico, Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Peru and Chile — to submit friend-of-the-court briefs in Justice’s challenge to SB 1070, which Brewer signed into law in April and is considered one of the nation’s toughest immigration-enforcement measures.
“As do many citizens, I find it incredibly offensive that these foreign governments are using our court system to meddle in a domestic legal dispute and to oppose the rule of law,” the Republican governor said in a statement shortly after the state’s motion was filed Tuesday evening.
“What’s even more offensive is that this effort has been supported by the U.S. Department of Justice. American sovereignty begins in the U.S. Constitution and at the border,” she added. “I am confident the 9th Circuit will do the right thing and recognize foreign interference in U.S. legal proceedings and allow the State of Arizona to respond to their brief.”

Whoa, WTF!

I'm surprised Venezuela's Hugo Chavez didn't jump all over this one.

keep pushing you freaks on the left.

How is that possible?

The Obama Administration suing a State for enforcing the law, then inviting foreign governments to join the lawsuit, after turning said State in to the Human Rights Commission of the United Nations: Hope and Change.

Its incredibly offensive and unbelievably outrageous, but hardly a novel action. Friend of the court briefs are routinely filed in big cases. They are almost always given zero consideration in the overall process of reaching a decision.
I can't imagine what possible interest a bunch of Central American countries have in a dispute between the Federal and State government in America.

Hahaha, and the far-leftists think I'm a fool for pointing out that the Muslims in the OIC are doing the exact same thing through the UN.
This country is being torn apart by foreign interests and the far-left is enabling it.

Of course foreign governments want to stop this.
The US is the landfill for social garbage from all over the western hemisphere. Can you imagine how nice it would be if we were able to send alll our white trash and problem minorities to another country, and then SUE to force them to accomodate them?
