And Arizona's controversial immigration law both hang in the balance right now Tom Goldstein.

Our brain room found out that.

You can get eight different rulings or eight different combinations everything from holding up the Arab log in its entirety -- striking the whole thing down what do you think's the most likely outcome.

Well it's a toss up on the part of a lot of Americans really care about the individual mandate which is requirement that most Americans buy health insurance after the world argument.

And Thomas so many different combinations obviously that's that's a broad based question but for the average person out there what would you say.

Well a lot of Americans look at this is a question of individual liberty will the principle be that congress -- -- -- something.

Lot of other Americans look at this is a question of health care and that is.

Wield the statute as a whole will be -- have held.

So that more Americans will have health -- that way or should there be another legislative solution no matter which direction -- -- It's absolutely historic in constitutional terms it's at the heart of the election.

Well it's obviously incredibly significant Americans are very concerned about immigration we -- whichever side.

The issue come down on Arizona has been followed up by about five other states that have passed similar laws.

That take a tougher stand on what they view as unfair competition for jobs and illegal immigration.

The federal government takes the very strong position that this is our job not the State's job so it's incredibly important principle that the Supreme Court hasn't decided yet.

Probably next Wednesday is the best -- for -- here.

I will look ahead to that Israel quicktime because it goes into our next to reader here -- -- -- happening now how difficult is it to get any information at all out of the Supreme Court.

It's almost impossible it's more secret than even the CIA sometimes you do see leaks from the national security establishment.

You really don't see you leaks from the justices in their -- it's pretty impressive and unheard of in this town where everybody likes.

That's up and we like to hear them time thank you very much great to have you back with us we look for having you back next week as well.

Thanks so much.
