When a father turns on his children

"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."
The preamble of our Constitution clearly establishes in it's use of the words Union, United, common, and domestic tranquility, the idea that we as a nation are a collective of entities(states) and our common goal is to prosper as one yet without sacrificing autonomy.
In recent days, both our President and his Attorney General have seen fit to disparage one this nations 50 "children" by innacurately villifying Arizona in its attempt to control it's own border. The law is fair and just comprising only of an extension of existing powers to more law enforcement. In a knee jerk reaction, both President Obama and AG Holder(who was forced to admit he hadn't even read the 10 page bill before demonizing it) have foisted on Arizona the consequence of ill-conceived and short-sighted boycotts.
Now our 48th state finds itself on the short end of tourism and commerce backlash based on misinformation starting at the top. By our own founding documents, the federal government is charged with protecting our great states, not villifying them. In a time when states can ill afford to spend precious dollars on doing the work that Washington has failed to, they certainly should not have to defend themselves against attacks from the White House.
