Although the occasional rant, including my own, can be useful in some way, presenting valuable information for immediate or later use is what should define the blogosphere. Signing statements affecting law enforcement from the top down is bothersome. I would guess that is not the reason for non-enforcement of immigration reform from 1986. As with any legislation, it seems pointless to pass it if it is not to be enforced. It makes another excuse for Congress that they are powerless to change anything but simpley legislate. Thanks for the useful post. Now I only have to find more time to follow up on this. This is the kind of discussion I look for on the net.
