Some congress members think the Supremacy Clause means themselves

Trust Senator Jim DeMint to use public time and resources to try to stop the Executive Branch from using public time and resources fighting a law that clearly violates the Supremacy Clause.

And trust Senator John McCain to keep selling of his integrity $5000 a sliver until it's all gone, he's re-elected, or both.

This week, Sens. Jim DeMint of South Carolina and David Vitter of Louisiana introduced legislation that would block the Obama administration from suing Arizona over its new law to crack down on illegal immigration. Sen. John McCain of Arizona donated $5,000 to a legal defense fund to fight challenges to the law.

And the GOP-dominated House Immigration Reform Caucus will file a friend of the court brief early next week, backing Republican Gov. Jan Brewer as she seeks to defend the law from a Justice Department lawsuit.

“Instead of spending time and taxpayer resources on a lawsuit, the Obama administration should be securing the border,” said Wesley Denton, a spokesman for DeMint. “The president and his administration are trying to invalidate a law that simply enforces federal law.”
