Judges for US v. Arizona are now public, Fox News criticism of recent order surreal
A week or so ago Fox News and conservatives had a big hissy fit because of an order signed by the clerk of the 9th circuit court of Appeals allowing foreign countries to submit briefs in US v. Arizona, the case involving Arizona's restrictive and discriminatory anti-immigration law. They criticized liberal judges for reading and citing foreign law, Obama for encouraging the countries by getting involved in overturning the law, and of course the Liberal 9th Circuit.

See an example of what Fox News was saying:

The order they are referring to:
http://www.azgovernor.gov/documents/BorderSecurity/USvAZ9thCirPI_OrderFilingVariousAmicusBriefs100410.pdf

Now the names of the judges are public:
  • John Noonan, Nominated by Ronald Reagan on October 16, 1985. Race or Ethnicity: White. Ideology: Moderate conservative.
  • Richard Paez, Nominated by William J. Clinton on March 9, 1994. Race or Ethnicity: Hispanic (Mexican decent). Ideology: Liberal.
  • Carlos Bea Nominated by George W. Bush on April 11, 2003. Race or Ethnicity: Hispanic (Spanish decent). Ideology: conservative.


  • = 2-1 Republican majority.

    Will they call out the Republican appointees who allowed foreign input into US law?

    Sources:
    http://www.politico.com/blogs/joshgerstein/1010/Arizona_draws_tough_panel_for_immigration_appeal.html
    http://www.fjc.gov/history/home.nsf/page/judges.html

    Disclosure: I am assuming that the order by the 9th Circuit was not made pursuant to consent of the parties (without judges) because the Governor of Arizona would have not objected to the briefs she later complained about publicly.

    1. Everything about freeper (ill)logic is surreal, in my opinion
    there is no rhyme or reason to it, just an endless garbled flow of sound bites that amount to nothing.

    They hate Big Government, unless they're for it, is what it boils down to.

    3. BTW, Politico is reporting that the Obama Admin is more excited about this panel than AZ
