1. --- he'll be sitting in a cubicle, making 85K per year. W.T.F.?

[lonestarnot]

4. Yeah 85K for conniving.

2. I feel for the elderly in AZ.

Especially anyone not matching his definition of eligible.

3. He'll figure out how to make solent green out of them and burn their houses all while sitting in his

prairie dog hole making $85K

5. You can get assistance--after you show your papers

btw, in your subject line I think you mean SB 1070. It looks like the last two digits were dropped.

[lonestarnot]

6. Oops. Thanks.

7. Somehow, Kansas' Kris Kobach was involved in crafting that AZ bill.

Wasn't Pearce a good friend of J.T. Ready, as well?

[pinboy3niner]

8. Kobach wrote it, Pearce introduced it iirc

And Pearce's ties to neo-nazi Ready, his protege, are well-documented.

Russell Pearce Can't Shake His Ties to Neo-Nazi J.T. Ready

By Stephen Lemons Thursday, Aug 23 2012

...

Who can forget his response to the tragedy on May 2, when Pearce's erstwhile friend and protege, neo-Nazi J.T. Ready, murdered four innocents in Gilbert, including a baby girl, before committing suicide?

...

Considering that Ready's home arsenal found after the shooting contained six military-issue grenades, the loss of life from this paranoid, right-wing nutcase could have been massive.

...

Ready was a man Pearce mentored for years, supported in a race for the Mesa City Council, groomed for higher political office, and inducted into his faith — the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Pearce was well aware of Ready's nefarious extremist activities when he palled around with him at a 2007 anti-immigrant rally at the state Capitol, where an infamous picture of the pair, arm-in-arm and grinning, was taken.

I saved a pic of JT Ready and a few of his militia boys patrolling the border...they look lovely, don't they?

9. Very good article from Mr. Lemons and the Phoenix Times. Thanks.

I know Ready was a repug committeeman, too.

The same crowd of obnoxious & violent repug activists are turning up to threaten the Latin American refugee kids. For the life of me, I can't understand how anyone can make dismissive comments about Godwin's law, when the overlaps between official repugs and nazis, in ideology-aims-personnel, are pointed out.
