Chip was claiming we’re basically Democrats, and that every GOP member is a RINO. So I’ve been pushing him to name someone he considers a “real conservative”. And Brewer was what he came up with.

Unfortunately, I believe Chip reflects a very vocal minority of conservatives who are simply angry and don’t know where to direct their anger. They are eating our own, and engaging in tin-foil conspiracies rather than thinking logically and rationally about the facts.

If this continues - and I fear it will - we’ll lose a key opportunity in November to take back one - or both - chambers of Congress.

Brewer is considered moderately conservative in Arizona. She signed the illegal immigration law, but would have had ZERO chance of remaining Gov if she had not. She also signed concealed carry without a permit - good, but she would have made a lot of enemies if she had not.

OTOH, she has been pushing for a temporary increase in the sales tax - from 5.6% (I think) to 6.6%. Naturally, the world will end and Arizona will blow up if we don’t pass it. Lots of us are less than thrilled - AZ has wildly increased spending over the last 5 years, and getting it back to 2005 levels shouldn’t be hard. Not for a conservative.

Just IMHO. I’m a bit odd, I guess. An Obamabot CIA Psyops agent who thinks Brewer is too liberal for Arizona, although I’d vote for her in the general election without hesitation.

Ahhh -- spoken like a true Obamabot yapping away without any evidence for anything he says motivated by that ChiCom flag on his info page.

"We" ... who are "we"? Do you mean Republicans?

Collectively there are more Democrats & Independents who question
Obama's Eligibility than do Republicans.


In the Tea Party, a MINORITY firmly believe Obama was born in the US:
