When do they do the Prop 187 on this bill?

[steve86]

I hope her Security Detail is really beefed up.

[SkyDancer]

That’s one small leap for a state, one giant leap for states rights!!!

[St. Louis Conservative]

Wow. One wonders if this will seal the long-term fate of the Arizona GOP?? Will this turn Hispanics against them for generations, and therefore decimate their electoral viability in the future? Or is that a Democrat talking point. Honest answers only, please.

[Ladycalif]

Brewer for President!

Well hello there.

[Nea Wood]

Arizonans, you have much to be proud of! WTG!

[Man50D]

She’s a meany!

That’s funny - the cnn story is obsessively focused on Øbozo and not the story itself.

“When do they do the Prop 187 on this bill?”

Oh, I’m sure Grover Norquist, Steve Moore of Club for growth, and Cesar Conda, who used to be Cheney’s domestic policy adviser are hard at work on it. They’re the ones largely responsible for destroying prop. 187.

I dont think it will hurt the AZ GOP all that much - polls are showing a 70%+ approval of the new law among AZ voters. The most vocal opponents were never going to be GOP voters anyway.

Can Sheriff Joe now ask Obama to prove he's a US Citizen when he visits? :)

[onyx]

I hope you all will email her notes of thanks.

[St. Louis Conservative]

I’m being honest here. Does this hurt the GOP with Hispanics, or do LEGAL, voting Hispanics support this law? I honestly don’t know the answer. I do know that the Democrat talkings have been that this will kill the GOP in the future because it will turn Hispanics against them.

[Borax Queen]

FOTFLOLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

[St. Louis Conservative]

“all that much”?

Does that mean that you concede that it will indeed hurt them, just “not that much”? That’s not a comforting thought given the rapidly rising percentage of the vote that Hispanics represent, particularly in a state like Arizona.
