Poor Jan Brewer just doesn't get it. I live in Tucson so I've had to suffer under her horrible leadership for almost 2 years now and how this awful woman is just running Arizona into the ground is so shameful. She fell into the position because Arizona does not have a Lt. Governor so the Secretary of States takes over when the sitting governor does not complete their term. Arizona has had other "accidental" governors before (Bruce Babbitt, Rose Mofford) but none of this magnitude of incompetance. She is so clueless on how our system of politics works. She sees the debates as an advantage for Goddard because he gets to "define himself" with the voters and that's a bad thing in her limited worldview.
Reading my morning paper I found some really great quotes from accidental governor Brewer.
Brewer Beheading Queen strikes back
You can't make this shit up that comes out of this woman's mouth. She only did the debate to pick up her 1.7 million dollar check that was a condition of the Clean Elections law in Arizona. I swear one of my friend's parrots is more cogent when talking.
The article is so great at letting Jan be Jan and the woman is so deluded she never can accept any blame for being so fucking stupid.
Brewer blamed part of her post-debate activities on her gaffe in her opening statement. The governor also said she presumed reporters would want to talk to her about some of the issues raised during the hour-long, televised debate.
Mmmmmmm ok sounds good so far... tell us why again you can't answer reporters' question about your constant fear mongering.
"All you guys were doing and talking were beheadings, beheadings, beheadings," the governor said. "That is something that has stuck with you all for so long, and I just felt we needed to move on."
Move on to what? Jeez this woman isn't qualified to read my water meter let alone lead the state of Arizona back on the right path. Our tourism is in the toilet, our schools are in shambles, the state has a deficit larger than the Meteor Crater, our sales tax rate went up a penny to 9.1% on all purchases (one of the highest in the country). The most unbelievable of all is she leads in the polls so what does that say about Arizona? It says we're willing to put up with fucked up leadership because the lazy and uninformed voters can't spend the time to become educated about the politicians that want leadership positions.
So I hope the media keeps on this story and shines the light of day on what an unqualified candidate and not fit for office Jan Brady oops I mean Jan Brewer is.
