This is an excerpt taken from today's Inside the Beltway column of the Washington Times:

THAT WAS QUICK
 
2:20 p.m. on Monday: The American Civil Liberties Union and a coalition of eight civil rights groups file a class action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court of Arizona challenging the constitutionality of the state's "extreme" new immigration law.
 
3:07 p.m.: "The Arizona immigration law is a sound and constitutional approach to addressing illegal immigration. We are planning to file an amicus brief representing concerned Americans in support of Arizona's defense of its law in the ACLU suit."
