Marathon Pundit: McConnell statement on Obama's Arizona lawsuit

From a McConnell press release:

Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell made the following statement Tuesday regarding the lawsuit filed against Arizona by the federal government:
Suing the people of Arizona for attempting to do a job the federal government has utterly failed to execute will not help secure our borders. If the President wants to make real progress on this issue, he can do so by taking amnesty off the table and focus his efforts on border and interior security.

It is long past time for this administration to prioritize solving a crisis over imposing an agenda and the first step is to recognize that attorneys and amnesty are not acceptable alternatives to border security and job creation.

On a personal note, I will be travelling to Arizona later this month, my first trip to the Grand Canyon state--not counting a stroll across Hoover Dam.
