Sarah Palin discusses e-mail hacking trial and the Arizona Immigration law just passed
“This thread is about a recent interview. Rehashing old quotes is a waste time. “
Tell that to your boys against Palin.
lol
Did you listen to the interview.
I don’t think you did. Palin states she agrees with Gov. Brewer on the bill making illegals....lol, illegal.
She only brings up state’s rights due to Greta asking her if it is hard for a state Gov. to get Federal help.
She is indicating that Brewer is in her right, state’s rights, to pass this bill. The bill is opposed by the Obama Admin.
What do you disagree with. I don’t think you know what you’re talking about. Listen to the interview and try again.
KNOCK IT OFF!
No worries. Quite frankly I wasn’t the one who came into this thread and started hurling insults.
No, she didn't. She agreed that Brewer should sign the bill. She did not state any agreement with the bill.
Here's the transcript:
VAN SUSTEREN: Indeed, and I hope everybody gets the message out there that it is a crime and they will -- people will get prosecuted for it.
All right, now to the other question. (INAUDIBLE) big picture of Governor Jan Brewer down in Arizona has been -- she's got a big immigration issue on her hands, illegal immigration issue. And -- and I'm wondering -- it's, like, how tough is it as a governor to try to get the federal government to help you out of a jam? Now, they finally have passed a bill. They've now got the attention of the federal government. But it has taken this far to have the federal government say, Look, we're going to -- we're going to try to do something about illegal immigration. But what's the difficulty for a governor?
PALIN: Well, in this day and age, when it doesn't seem there are a lot of federalists in the federal government understanding 10th Amendment rights and a state's rights, it is quite difficult to have that good communication and working relationship between the feds and the state government in order to best serve the people whom you are to be serving. So more power to Jan Brewer for deciding that she was taking on an issue. And it is a states' rights issue, and she was going to decide with her lawmakers what they could do to tackle this huge issue of some immigration problems.
As a governor, you know, I faced the same thing, when I was governor as Alaska and had to sue the federal government over abuse of the Endangered Species Act -- that was under President Bush -- and then having to butt heads with President Obama over the stimulus funds, when I vetoed some of the stimulus funds that came to our state, and then my veto of those funds was overridden by the legislature.
But there is -- there is always that good, healthy kind of conflict between the state and the federal government, but a state governor has got to make sure that they are remembering who they are serving. It's the people who hired them, their state's voters, and they do what's best for the people who did hire them. Sometimes that is in conflict with the federal government.
But Jan Brewer, I think, in doing the right thing for her constituents and standing up for her state, and now it's a matter of working with the feds to kind of mesh what the mission is that they are on to make sure that this immigration reform that she wants to work on, that due respect is given to the state in this case.
VAN SUSTEREN: Well, it's a very important issue, and I think now the state of Arizona finally has the attention of the federal government. And so we'll see what happens as they -- as the days and weeks go on. Thank you, Governor.
PALIN: Thank you.
That’s like stating that you don’t agree with the Constitution because you didn’t come out and specify agreement with every provision.
Your analysis is absurd.
By the way, your analogy doesn't make sense. It does not apply to the specifics of whether she supports the bill.
“But Jan Brewer, I think, in doing the right thing for her constituents and standing up for her state, and now it’s a matter of working with the feds to kind of mesh what the mission is that they are on to make sure that this immigration reform that she wants to work on, that due respect is given to the state in this case.”
W T F ??
No. An observation is of something factual.
You are analyzing when you insinuate somebody is taking a specific issue stance, simply because they don’t come and specifically state it the way you want to see it stated.
Palin isn’t dancing around anything. The subject was the bill which she states that she supports through by agreeing with the Governor’s actions.
You people appear to unhinged when you ....well, I’ll use Palin’s words when she addresses the jaded perspective of the liberal media.
“Quit making things up.”
Ok, please decipher the Palinism at post 170.
“Mesh the mission” for me ;-)
Decipher Greta’s question, which Sarah answered.
“And — and I’m wondering — it’s, like, how tough is it as a governor to try to get the federal government to help you out of a jam? Now, they finally have passed a bill. They’ve now got the attention of the federal government. But it has taken this far to have the federal government say, Look, we’re going to — we’re going to try to do something about illegal immigration. But what’s the difficulty for a governor?”
Sheeesh.
Yeah, you have a valid point there LOL!!
The problem is that Jan has no intention of working with the feds. The feds have made clear they want amnesty, and are even directing the border patrol not to arrest illegals. They have also cut the BP budget.
The feds under Obama are the enemy. That was why the bill was drafted, and why Jan signed it.
Geoge Bush impression?
She is obviously stating her support for the illegal immigration bill. Do you disagree with this?
Now some on here want to go the Clinton definition of “is”...approach. Let’s be real.
Not "give them" this issue right now? They are trying to cram Amnesty down our throats and will have it done or well on its way if we wait until November. Just how do we wait until November?- just sit back and let AMNESTY pass? Harry Reid spoke at a PRO-AMNESTY RALLY on the very day of the services for Rob Krentz. They are not waiting until November so we better not wait either.
