Governor Brewer takes to Facebook to defend law
Countdown reported that and she is obviously trying to use it as her support tool. What you say we who have facebook accounts jump on and derail her as much as we can?

1. nobody has an answer?
I would like to know what you think. I know they can fix it where we can't see their stuff, but it does close it off to where it won't be public. I would like to see if it is a good thing to do or not. Please response.

2. where are all the answers to this question
I have heard so much of what we should do and asking me what I think we should do so I ask for an opinion on something we might can do and LOOK no responses except for me. Where are all those so excited about this issue and wants to do something? Here is a chance for you to speak up and yet this has only my responses. Guess maybe this so determined to speak out are investigating to see if it is worthwhile. Come on let's hear your ideas on if it is a good idea or not.

5. That's prolly the perfect venue for Brewer to declare, "I kissed a shit-bill today, and I liked it!"

7. I know you can dismiss viewers from seeing your wall and why
I am trying to get feedback here. I figure there are those who will know and be able to advice how to bother Brewer on Facebook and disrupt her efforts to gain support and put out propaganda. I just don't know and would like to find out if we can disrupt her.

8. It appears her facebook site is really just set up as a fan site. Not much to it.
:shrug:

9. I am not that active on Facebook but enough to know that
you can control who sees somethings, so I thought someone here would be able to know and advice us since so many are so anxious to do something, I thought it was something that was worth bringing up.

12. Well, I'm not convinced it would be all that productive. Either her, or likely her staff level...
Edited on Wed Apr-28-10 08:40 PM by bridgit
IT/message people are more than likely working OT slapping her 'delete' button over there as it is. So while there's a feel good component, that feel good component seems a fleeting one to me where the message you'd otherwise intend to disrupt becomes itself routinely disrupted. Allot of social networking sites have spam alerts and all the rest of that. And before too long you'd be changing user-names, passwords, schedulers, etc, and that the exchange rate pound for pound/dollar for dollar would in short order and imo be sliding away from you and not toward you

An alternative could be setting up a joke, or flat-out informational Facebook page able to compete, and that could be linked at several Dem Lib/Pro sites, and the many people already there understanding completely just how idiotically fucked up these republicans truly are; that would be far less likely to deleted so long as the pith of your message remained straight forward, pointed, prickly even mockingly disrespectful or satirical. There's a fake, way too funny Meg Whitman Twitter page out there but I can't find it just now http://www.facebook.com/pages/Meg-Whitman-I-am-already-sick-of-you-And-it-is-not-even-November-yet/308719177417

10. i looked Brewer up on wikipedia
Edited on Wed Apr-28-10 08:26 PM by RobertPlant
and noticed that she is 65 years old. Not only is she taking too much botox injections but she's too old to be on facebook.

16. I did join and here is what I asked her about
not exactly the words used but the questions asked.

Is signing this bill an endorsement of Russell Pearce and his neo-nazi friend and ally J.D. Ready a neo-nazi leader here in arizona? Also are aware of the influence of FAIR a legal wing of the Patriot Fund a very neo-nazi organization.

17. Goddard can't accept the money because he is running clean elections so
you will need to send it to the Arizona Democratic Party instead. I know many don't want to do so because of how do we know it will be used for Goddard, which is a good questions. This is what the leadership said Saturday, that they are keying on getting Goddard elected because like with Janet this gives an instant block to such stupid stuff as Pearce and his kind like to send for signing.

19. Defending the law on Facebook has to be easier than defending it in court
After all, she can just delete the comments she doesn't like, ignore the questions she finds inconvenient, and say any old thing she wants without fear of contradiction. It's perfect! Unless, of course, she's trying to make a serious argument in favor of this xenophobic, draconian, expensive piece of shit masquerading as legislation that won't accomplish its goals and succeed only in costing her state even more money.

I saw this morning that Arizona is going to need a whole bunch more law enforcement officers to carry out the mandates of the law. I wonder where they'll come up with the money? Or if they'll just go to DC to see if all the other states will subsidize their bigotry?
