One of the little bits from La Cervecera’s State of the State Address that has gotten some folks talking was Jan Brewer’s non-introduction of State Treasurer Dean Martin and Attorney General Terry Goddard. It might not have been as remarked on except that the Governor made a point of looking at the two of them [...]
My weekly round up of things that for one reason or another I just didn’t get to last week:
TPM commenter Dennis M on Michael Steele’s call for Janet Napolitano’s resignation:
Let me get this straight: According to Michael Steele, putting your foot in your mouth is a firing offense.
In that case, Michael, why do you still have a job?
From the St. Petersburg Times. Aside from his assertion that Joe Arpaio never plays politics, I particularly like his grasp of plural pronouns:
The question you have to ask yourself is: Do you feel any safer when you board an airplane with President Barack Obama running the security for the country?
For me, no! I have no [...]
The folks at the Yellow Sheet decided to take on the Democratic Party for, it seems, a press release that the party sent a year and a half ago.
You may recall that during the heady days of the 2008 campaign, Tim Bee brought George W. Bush to Tucson for a fundraiser for his run for [...]
Henry Fountain Ashurst’s “cold clammy hand of consistency” at it again, to wit:
Barack Obama is fully responsible for an economic downturn that started before he was president, and bank bailouts that happened under the previous administration and supported by his opponent in last year’s election are his fault too.
Jan Brewer has absolutely nothing to do [...]
My weekly round up of stuff I was too lazy and neglectful to write about last week:
Public Policy Polling has a new poll out that isn’t good news for Republicans thinking that they can hold the Governor’s office next year. Well, one bit of good news for them: Jan Brewer is nearly as popular with Barack Obama voters as she is with John McCain voters. Of course, when only 28% of [...]
Over the last couple of weeks, we’ve seen our Republican legislators try to spin the legislative session. Sometimes, this comes off pretty darned pathetic.
The latest salvo from their side is the assertion that they could probably sue the Governor, but they choose not to. Mighty magnamanous of them. For some reason, some in our state’s [...]
Even as a supporter of Janet Napolitano, one of the things that bothered me during her reign was her relationship with Joe Arpaio. Arpaio was muted in his criticism of Napolitano (sometimes joking that this was some form of Italian-American solidarity) and Napolitano seemed to return the favor.
Now that she is in higher office and, [...]
