I thought this ended with GW Bush, but looks like it’s here to stay! I miss Barry Goldwater! » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 12:56 pm Have a great afternoon, BDM, and it was great seeing you again! » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 12:54 pm This is what appears – President Barack Obama (D) profile Your State Elected Officials Governor Jan Brewer (R) profile » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 12:53 pm I agree with BDM in that these people scare the ‘chit’ out of me, too! They’re really nuts and most are armed. » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 12:45 pm I can’t find where to put my address on that tab. Found it, but it doesn’t tell me the names of the reps in my area that belong to the group. » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 12:42 pm I remember Munsil from the time he ran for governor and thankfully was defeated. Looks like he’s still getting his way though when it comes to his faux Christian beliefs. What a freaking scary site that is, Sue. » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 12:28 pm It really disgusts me that they have so much influence in our state government. Napolitano vetoed most of their bills, but once she left and Republican Brewer stepped in, they’re successfully passing legislation designed by that group. Good luck to them trying to get gambling out of this state! » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 12:24 pm I do not understand why the MSM never shows the GOP and the Tea Party Movement racism. When reporting on CPAC, the MSM never aired the racist statements made by some of their guest speakers. When reporting on the Tea Party people at the town hall meetings last summer, the MSM never showed the racist signs some of the Tea Party people carried nor did they air any of their racist comments. Why is the MSM afraid to show the true face of the GOP and the Tea Party Movement? Could it be that corporations are racist entities? » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 12:17 pm I can’t find the sponsors of this group – http://www.azpolicy.org/ – B’ito and Sue, have either of you had any luck? » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 11:53 am She is a corporate media creation, even though McCain and the GOP are totally to blame for choosing her as a VP candidate to begin with. She does have a strong base, so they say, but honestly, I cannot see her running for president. She would never survive the GOP debates, but I’d actually watch them if she were to run! » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 11:33 am My husband reminded me that it might not end her political aspirations – remember Jessie Ventura held elected office and look at Scott Brown’s naked pose in Cosmopolitan and that didn’t hurt his political ambitions. Then there’s Ahnold and Reagan, so in American politics, looks like anything goes! » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 11:12 am Has anyone else heard that Sarah Palin is looking to do a reality television show? Palin and her family would be on-camera in the show, which one executive described as “‘Planet Earth’ meets Alaska meets her family,” referring to Discovery’s high-definition nature hit. I agree with the diarist in that if SP gets a reality television show that it ends or should end the speculation about her running for political office. » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 10:59 am Hi Boomer! Here’s an article that’s somewhat related – “Never before in all our history have these forces been so united against one candidate as they stand today. They are unanimous in their hate for me and I welcome their hatred.” — President Roosevelt, Madison Square Garden, 31 October 1936 ——- The real anger is all on the right, kidnapped » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 10:41 am I read their site and it turned my stomach that those people are serious and it disturbs me that they have so much power and influence on our state government. It does explain Sheriff Joe’s popularity though. » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 10:29 am Isn’t it frustrating that the MSM does not cover the story about the ACORN investigation? » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 10:17 am Great minds! 😆 » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 10:15 am Thanks to b’ito for bringing this to our attention. He also supplied a link to the Arizona Republic article about the group – http://www.azcentral.com/news/articles/2010/03/04/20100304center-for-arizona-policy.html » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 10:14 am Wonder how the Tea Party people feel about this – A measure to give some 57 million elderly people, veterans and persons with disabilities a $250 check was rejected by the Senate on Wednesday, a setback for the powerful seniors’ lobby. President Barack Obama has called for Congress to approve the payments to make up for their benefits not increasing this year, but the Senate defeated it 50 to 47. 10 Democrats voted with the Republicans in defeating the measure. » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 10:03 am Good morning, kesmarn! I’m guilty of several things that you’ve listed, but can’t say I feel guilty for many of them! » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 9:48 am Barry Goldwater must be rolling in his grave. For as crazy as Goldwater was, he warned about the religious right’s power in the GOP. I miss Barry. » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 9:44 am B’ito, do you think this group is behind the legislation about Obama having to provide his birth certificate to get his name on the ballot if he runs for re-election in 2012? I’m reading their site and must admit to being shocked and geeze, I wonder how many similar groups are out there and how much power do they wield at a federal level? This group sounds like the Tea Party Movement but even worse. They are a corporate funded religious group that wants to turn AZ into a theocracy, but the hypocrisy is unbelievable. Instead of pushing their religious faux-Christian beliefs on us all, why aren’t they helping people who are poor, and people who do not have health insurance? They have a lot of corporate money backing them and they could put that money to good use helping people instead of promoting their skewered view of Christianity. I am totally shocked by this, and honestly, I thought nothing could shock me anymore! 😆 Here’s a comment on the article that might or might not be sarcastic – Homosexuality is leading to the destruction of the world. Look at how many calamities we have had lately. We have had two major earthquakes and a tsunami These have been signals from God that he is very displeased with the behavior of man kind. » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 9:31 am Think they’ll propose legislation that will require all Arizonans to attend church services? Would it shock you if they dared such a thing? It wouldn’t surprise me at all. I’m very troubled by finding out about this group and hope the local media reports on it. KPHO took on Sheriff Joe and maybe they’ll take on this group. » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 9:21 am The group that B’ito found in that article explains the regressive policies of this state. The Center for Arizona Policy sound like religious zealots, but they certainly do not sound like Christians. » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 9:16 am That is truly frightening. I just read that Sarah Palin is a guest speaker at some dinner they’re hosting. I wonder if they are paying her fee to speak. » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 9:13 am If there is a dumb idea, they are behind it. Never have I read truer words, B’ito! Wow, that’s a fascinating article about the conservative group behind Arizona laws – a shadow government? At least it explains the stupidity of our governor and legislature. It’s kind of scary, isn’t it? » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 9:06 am Hi B’ito and everyone! It’s good to know that the Arizona State Legislature is busy trying to fix the state’s budget crisis by passing stupid laws such as defying the Federal Gov’t ban on incandescent light bulbs! http://www.eastvalleytribune.com/story/151436 » Posted By javaz On March 4, 2010 @ 8:34 am Cher – another article on the rise of hate groups : The anger seething across the American political landscape — over racial changes in the population, soaring public debt and the terrible economy, the bailouts of bankers and other elites, and an array of initiatives by the relatively liberal Obama Administration that are seen as “socialist” or even “fascist” — goes beyond the radical right. The “tea parties” and similar groups that have sprung up in recent months cannot fairly be considered extremist groups, but they are shot through with rich veins of radical ideas, conspiracy theories and racism. » Posted By javaz On March 3, 2010 @ 6:36 am Fifteen states have resolutions that deny climate change, and Arizona is right in there. The most legally bizarre resolution is Arizona state senator Sylvia Allen » Posted By javaz On March 2, 2010 @ 4:30 pm Update on Sheriff Joe – Some Maricopa County Sheriff Office bank accounts that are kept separate from normal county funds, are under investigation by the Arizona Attorney General’s Office. CBS 5 obtained bank account summaries that show withdrawals from as little as a few dollars to as much as several thousand dollars. Records show money was paid to individuals, companies, a church and Sheriff Joe Arpaio. Unlike normal county bank accounts, these need NO approval for expenditures outside the sheriff’s office. http://www.kpho.com/news/22714689/detail.html Kobach — an attorney for the Immigration Reform Law Institute, the legal arm of the nativist hate group FAIR, the Federation for American Immigration Reform — was recently announced by Sheriff Joe to be the guy responsible for training all of Arpaio’s nearly 900 deputies on how to enforce federal immigration law, minus any grant of authority to do so by the feds. Both Arpaio and Kobach have been elusive on how much he’s being paid and who’s paying him. But under oath Hendershott stated that Kobach is being paid “either $250 an hour or $300 an hour,” out of county RICO coffers, that is, money derived from the confiscation of criminal assets. Hendershott said Kobach came highly recommended by deputy Maricopa County Attorney Clarisse McCormick, that a contract with Kobach is already in effect, and that Kobach’s billing clock is ticking. (In the past, both the MCSO and the MCAO have used RICO money like a personal slush fund to do with as each office pleases, whether it’s been for Herndershott’s strange, still unexplained missions to Honduras to train traffic cops down there or for County Attorney Andrew Thomas’ newspaper insertions featuring himself prominently during an election year. The hiring of Kobach is only the latest example of the squandering of county RICO dollars.) http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/bastard/2010/03/david_hendershott_depo_kris_ko.php » Posted By javaz On March 2, 2010 @ 1:38 pmComments Posted By javaz
