Three Republican Senators backtrack on Arizona Bill.

Good bye 6th amendment. Do you believe in the right to a speedy trial? Is an impartial jury a right? How about the right to be represented by counsel? What would you say when a Justice Department appointee is blocked from senate confirmation because they followed the constitution and defended a client? The hypocrisy of the Republicans knows no bounds. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/03/06/harry-reid-debo-adegbile_n_4912790.html ...

Let's all get us a submachine gun and start firing! Seems to be the thing to do these days. Arizona Republican congressional candidate Pamela Gorman shoots four separate firearms, including an automatic rifle, in her latest ad. The ad splices together glamour shots of Gorman, a state senator, with her firing off rounds in the Arizona desert. “This year a lot of folks think this is our best shot at changing Congress,” the narrator of the ad says. “Course that ...

The new governor is trying to pass bills which allow the governor to appoint all directors of all agencies and get rid of them at will. Also, the governor wants to get rid of all "rules" that any agency or committee has established unless the governor decides that those rules should exist. The country is finally waking up to the fact that we have a bunch of bullies who got themselves elected by saying the right things, but are turning into something else entirely. Nobody likes bullies. This is ...

By The New York Times April 24, 2010, 9:17PM John M. Broder Washington -- In a move that may derail a comprehensive climate change and energy bill in the Senate, one of the measure's central architects, Sen. Lindsey Graham, has issued an angry protest over what he says are Democratic plans to give priority to a debate over immigration policy. Graham, Republican of South Carolina, said in a sharply worded letter on Saturday that he would no longer participate in negotiations on the energ ...

17 Democratic senators: Stop these new ObamaCare taxes! Published by: Dan Calabrese on Thursday December 13th, 2012 By DAN CALABRESE - Never mind that we voted for them. Per my Michigan View/Detroit News editor Henry Payne, Democrats are shocked - shocked! - to discover that ObamaCare creates new taxes, and furthermore, that these new taxes will actually have a negative effect on those who are stuck paying them (not to mention their customers). This is both rolling-on-the-floor hilariou ...

Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer launched a double-barrage back Thursday at President Obama's Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and Mexican President Felipe Calderon, who took the occasion of his state visit to Washington to twice criticize the law of an American state. “I think that’s really unfortunate," Brewer told Greta Van Susteren on the Fox News Channel. "I don’t believe he understands what the law actually says and I don’t mean that derogatory. The fact of ...

Sitting here this a.m. thinking about the 19 lives lost and 1 spared. I pray for the families that lost fathers, husbands, sons, brothers, and possibly sisters, wives, daughters. Such a tragic loss. I cannot begin to experience what these families are going through. May God bless them and help them get through this difficult time. I went through a devastating house fire over 2 years ago where everything I owned was lost. I am so thankful that my fiance and cat an ...

Trespassing law may turn more illegal immigrants into citizens By Jim Small - jim.small@azcapitoltimes.com Published: May 17, 2010 at 7:02 am Arizona’s new immigration law may have been aimed at deporting as many illegal immigrants as possible, but an ironic side effect will allow more undocumented residents to apply for temporary work visas and permanent U.S. citizenship, according to research b ...

Not to make too much of it now, as you can see from below, but Obama COULD win Arizona now and what about the future? Over half of our Hispanics are strongly conservative. Will GOP leaders finally bite the bitter bullet and start embracing "those" and their growing demographic if they want to keep winning elections in future? And how much of its base will that cost them? (In any case, I predict a new admiration for Mexican tile backslashes...some day. :) For now, we've already seen ...

From the NY Times WASHINGTON — For the past two years, Republican senators facing re-election have very deliberately spent millions of dollars, hired multiple consultants and cast scores of conservative votes with one goal in mind: avoiding the embarrassing primary conflagrations that befell their party in 2010 and 2012 and cost Republicans a chance at taking back the Senate.
