It appears that Sonia Sotomayor will soon be confirmed justice of the Supreme Court. Look for her to promptly rally the court to rule that the military test known as the Mexican War, where the Mexican firefighters were outnumbered and overmatched, was fundamentally unfair.

Declaring Mexico the winner and further declaring the land between current Mexico and Canada to be the newest Mexican state will solve the immigration problem at the same time.
