In a partial and last-minute victory for opponents of the new Arizona immigration law, a federal judge on Wednesday blocked its most controversial components just hours before the crackdown was set to go into effect.

The philosopher wonders whether the GOP ever will negotiate till they control all three branches of government. It seems easier for the right to demonize easy victims like the undocumented to score cheap electoral victories from irrational voters.
