“I’ve never wavered in my belief that Hazleton has the right to pass the Illegal Immigration Relief Act and firmly believe our case will be vindicated in the higher court,â€

Hazleton Mayor Lou Barletta thinks he can win an immigration case on the second try.

A federal judge overturned the city’s immigration ordinance in July 2007, but Barletta believes the city will prevail in an appeal that he expects will be heard on Oct. 31.

“I’ve never wavered in my belief that Hazleton has the right to pass the Illegal Immigration Relief Act and firmly believe our case will be vindicated in the higher court,â€

97% error is very good in my opinion..... does an invasion of 40,000,000 really require 100% accuracy. Judges think with common sense, PLEASE!

After the judges consider written and oral arguments in the case, they typically issue a decision from four months to a year later, Kobach said.

Could this be just one of the major problems with our courts and the lame, slothful judges that preside over them??? Thye will render a decision in 4 months to a year. Are you fed up eith this crap? Federal judges should be elected, not appointed for this reason alone!

WE ELECT PRESIDENT, CONGRESS, AND NOW WE NEED TO VOTE ON JUDGES!
