By azpaull on Wed, 09/15/2010 - 5:46pm |
WHERE'S THE OUTRAGE?  that popular mantra (just Google it) certainly seems to fit in this case. I just received a Tweet that led to an article in Monday's Washington Post about the possible effects an immigration overhaul (is one suddenly in the works?)...

Without knowing about the Friday announcement, one of my kids and I were talking about former Congressman Jim Kolbe.  How he epitomized the well-intentioned, good people that ARE actually involved in high-level politics.  How he was one of the Republicans...

Arizona Governor Jan Brewer is enjoying the national attention - and the boost in her electoral chances - she has received since signing controversial anti-immigration measure S.B. 1070 into law.  On Friday, she took another step down that (far) right...

Steele Reflects The Current Republican Party PERFECTLY!!!

By azpaull on Fri, 07/02/2010 - 4:12pm |
I applaud GOP Chair Michael Steele's self-contradictory comments about Afghanistan;  he is the perfect example of the current-day Republican Party and should remain as an out(in right field)spoken leader of an out(in right field foul territory)spoken party. I think the...

Let's See Your Amended Financial Disclosure Statement, Rep. Sessions!

By azpaull on Thu, 02/04/2010 - 3:06pm |

UPDATE: Dancing With The Senators: Sen. McCain Sidesteps Re: Reid, Plays Us For Dips

LET'S GET READY TO RUUUUUMBLEEEEEE! McCain Is Ready To "Knock Some Sense Into Heads", Says Obama Is "LEADING AN EXTREME, LEFT WING CRUSADE TO BANKRUPT AMERICA"

By azpaull on Thu, 01/07/2010 - 5:49pm |
Arizona's Senior Senator has two in-your-face radio ads ready to run for his 2010 re-election campaign.  I'll bet he's already bought the airtime on the conservative talker where potential primary (or Tea Party) rival and fmr Rep. J.D. Hayworth holds...

By azpaull on Mon, 01/04/2010 - 3:39pm |
    Even ones about his own parents' emigration to the U.S. (from Italy).  Not only that, but he has not totally read the book.  (He "may have" read the parts relating to illegal immigration.) Sometimes, it takes being under...
