HILLARY ANGERS ARIZONA GOV.

Spread The Love

Once again, Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer is fighting mad.  And this time, the target of her aggressions is none other than Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

In a June 8th interview in Ecuador that began circulating the Internet last Thursday, Secretary Clinton said President Obama thinks it is the responsibility of the federal government to determine immigration policy, not states or local jurisdictions, and that the Justice Department “will be bringing a lawsuit against the act.” Although this is technically not Secretary Clinton’s area of responsibility to be discussing, particularly on foreign soil, her words were actually pretty accurate. The Justice Department has indeed been looking at the Arizona law for weeks over possible civil rights violations, with a lean toward a possible court challenge.

But Gov. Brewer, a Republican, said in a statement that “this is no way to treat the people of Arizona.”

“To learn of this lawsuit through an Ecuadorean interview with the Secretary of State is just outrageous,” she said. “If our own government intends to sue our state to prevent illegal immigration enforcement, the least it can do is inform us before it informs the citizens of another nation.”

Gov. Brewer’s spokesman Paul Senseman said the governor was “outraged” and that Clinton’s comments make it appear that the Justice Department has decided to file suit. “But she’s confident that in the end, the state of Arizona, the citizens, will prevail,” he said.

  1. The Tea Bag Party are just “haters not debaters” or as others have dubbed them “screamers not dreamers”, with their failed attempts at stopping Healthcare reform, they say they respect the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the Declaration of Independence but they do not mind passing laws, through weak Governors (no one voted for this crazy) who only cares about getting elected Governor, on the backs of undocumented workers, that will not pass Constitution muster.Brewer signed into law;1. S.B. 1070,2. No permit conceal weapons law,3. The famous Birthers law,4. Banning Ethnic studies law, 5. Could she be behind the Mural in Prescott, Arizona, ordered to be whiten,6. On deck to pass, no citizenship to babies born to undocumented workers,7. If she can read she should look up Arizona’s House Bill 2779 from two years ago (which was un-constitution and failed when legally challenged),8. The boycotted Martin Luther King Day, what idiots don’t want another holiday? Yes, you guessed it Arizona.Well Arizona, you can boycott new holidays and keep passing crazy laws and the rest of us will continue to challenged them in a court of law and continue to add cities to our Boycott of your state.I real cannot believe anything that comes out of Brewer’s mouth, in an interview she first said her father had died in Germany fighting the Nazi in World War II (war ended 1945) but of course we find out the truth that father was never in Germany and died in California in 1955. But we are suppose to believe everything else she says, right! No one voted for you for Governor, yet you keep listening to the tiny brains of the crazies and signing into law everything that comes into their feeble minds, it only make you look dumb, stupid or racist, or maybe all three.As for the Tea Bag Party, their phony patriotism is sickening; they are just racists going by another name. We all know you are just itching to put a sheet on their head? Let’s face it the Republicans had eight years to deal with health care, immigration, energy (remember Cheney’s secret meetings with oil companies where loosening regulation and oversight were sealed), climate change and financial oversight and governance and they failed. It appears that the Republican Party is only good at starting wars (two in eight years, with fat contracts to friends of Cheney/Bush) but not at winning wars as seen by the continuing line of body bags that keep coming home. The Republicans party will continue turned inward to their old fashion obstructionist party (and their Confederacy appreciation roots) because they continue to allow a small portions (but very loud portion) of their party of “birthers, baggers and blowhards” to rule their party. I will admit that this fringe is very good at playing “Follow the Leader” by listening to their dullard leaders, Beck, Hedgecock, Hannity, O’Reilly, Rush, Savage, Sarah Bailin, Orly Taitz, Victoria Jackson, Michele Bachmann and the rest of the Blowhards and acting as ill programmed robots (they have already acted against doctors that perform abortions).
