Arizona Governor Vetoes Health Care Freedom Bill
A Semi-News/Semi-Satire from AzConservative ^ | 30 April 2011 | John Semmens

In Arizona it’s all about $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ for cronies. I guess it’s that way in every state we’ve lived in. I do have to agree with her that most of the people in AZ are too stupid to figure out what a good insurance plan is.

Brewer blew it bigtime.

She comes down on the side of tyranny, and calls her constituency stupid.

J Brewer has proven herself to be 100% RINO. Dump Brewer ASAP, and the GOP leadership that gave her to us!
