Brewer: "I will not stop fighting to protect the citizens of Arizona, and to defend Arizonans in federal court. I have set up a legal defense fund to pay the substantial legal fees that Arizona has been, and will be, forced to incur as a result of all of these lawsuits. Contributions to the Border Security and Immigration Defense Fund can be made at www.keepazsafe.com. My legal team will not hesitate to assert the rights of the State of Arizona (More)

[GOP Poet]

she is one hell of a leader and Governor.

[MIlle]

Jan Brewer has brass ones, I’m tellin’ ya! I wish she’d tell the boys in the Republican Party where they can pick up a pair.

I've posted this excerpt from the Declaration of Independence several times, but no one seems to be as impressed with the similarity of the situations.

He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.

He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. - Thomas Jefferson, The Declaration of Independence

I'm not sure about her support for Juan. I got rid of TV, and listen to a select few of radio talk shows, intermittently. So absolutely tried of propaganda from Corporate Media outlets. I prefer to think for myself, and get information from FreeRepublic at a leisurely pace.

Hey, that is pretty good. There is no need to quote Jefferson, to lend more credibility to the Declaration.

Keep posting it, someone will eventually pick up on it.

[Don Carlos]

Now there's an idea!

[Plutarch]

Something else to note, is that on the list of charges against King George in the Declaration, this was listed first.

We're still waiting for other states to pass their own versions of SB1070 legistlation.

California elects to legalize marijuana in conflict with federal laws and the system is silent. Arizona elects to offer assistance in enforcement of federal laws and they are sued for usurping federal authority.

There remains only one solution: Execution: Eric Holder must be tried and executed for treason against the US Constitution. There is no gray area, no middle ground, no room for discussion. These are the facts, they are undisputed.

Jan, swear every Arizona citizen into a posse and tell them they have the right to shoot on sight to protect the lives and wellbeing of American citizen. There will be 30,000 armed, well trained men and women at the border in no time at all.

For years, localities have been setting up “Sanctuary City” provisions in defiance of federal law. How can the federal government sue AZ but not the Sanctuary Cities?

[NonValueAdded]

Very apt. Bravo!

[pfflier]

Too weird for me.

It was back in February, that's why I asked you, because I haven't heard a word since. The fact that you don't know, tells me that she's busy governing and NOT actively involved.

Their AG is a Dem I think. Woouldn’t you want lawyers who want to win?

[J Edgar]

Please don’t read too much into my lack of awareness - I was out of state from Mid-Feburary until two weeks ago, as well as being very tired of Corporate Media outlets.

[McGavin999]

Why the need for a fund? There are no lawyers on the state payroll?

The state Attorney General is a dem and in Obama's hip pocket. There is no way to trust our legal department now because it is staffed with libs and those who are not would fear for their jobs.

[FReepaholic]

The States created the Federal Government in order to provide for their common defense. Now it seems the States must defend themselves from their own creation.

A perfect time for cleaning house. Don’t do the job you were hired to do or you are out of a job.......
