Arizona's vicious war on workers

For the life of me I cannot understand, outside of jealousy and envy, why ANY working class man or woman would be opposed to the bargaining strength that a union provides them, why they would rather place their fate in the hands of corporate heads who see then as little more than insects. Yet these some people who work for a living will go out and vote to put people in office who's sole purpose is to further stack the cards against them...It just baffles me.

Even China had laws giving workers right to join a union and bargain for rights. Not that it actually lets them, but at least they have left the appearance of unionism in place.

Jan Brewer Recall Possible As Arizona Collective Bargaining Has Democrats, Unions Planning Protests

"Many of the bills have been connected to the American Legislative Exchange Council, a conservative organization which has been providing model legislation to state legislatives nationwide. "We're fighting ALEC and the Goldwater Institute," Friend said of Arizona's battle. "The Goldwater Institute has filled the hearing room with Tea Party folks."

One idea receiving consideration is a recall campaign against Brewer similar to the one currently underway against Walker in Wisconsin. This is not the first time the idea of a Brewer recall has been floated. The group Citizens for a Better Arizona, which led the recall of former Senate President Russell Pearce (R) last year, also indicated a possible move to recall Brewer in November.

A recall against Brewer would be tough, with 432,000 signatures needed to get the measure on the ballot. Only one Arizona governor -- Republican Evan Mecham in 1988 -- has faced a recall. Mecham's recall was canceled after successful impeachment measures by the state legislature.

Friend said there are a variety of reasons a recall campaign could be launched."

Another little ball of hate dipped in stupidity sauce.

This country needs immigrants, true the illegal immigrants hurt some of the legal immigrants coming here searching for the same jobs but the entire failed system leading so many illegals to come here illegally is our countries own stupid fault. We need to make it easier for legal immigration. Our problem is we see any immigrants at all as a problem! The only thing these laws in Arizona and Alabama are doing is legalizing racism. These people work some of the hardest shittiest job and never complain and this is how we repay them? Try doing landscaping as a job. I dare you. I did do it for about 3 months in the summer one time and it killed me.

If we don't believe in being a nation of immigrants with diverse backgrounds anymore then we need to file down the wording on the Statue of Liberty. We don't want to give the wrong impression with the whole 'give us your tired, sick, poor' etc. And if we don't believe in that anymore then we might as well get rid of everyone who isn't Amerindians.

Unfortunately, I saw this idiot win fair and square in 2010....AZ got what they deserve, sorry. Same with all the idiot Tea bagger governors in the US....you got what you deserved. How anyone with any sense could see these people are lunatics....but they voted for them anyway.

This troglodyte was probably educated in Georgia and got her masters from the university of walk and don't walk. Her constituancy seems to have the same background. How else could she be ushered into a political office. I suspect that if someone researched her past they would find that her I.Q. matches the amount of teeth that she has in her head. That would be 32, or not one at all. These forms of life should be bannished from Society.

Brewer continues the dance her corporate puppet stringmasters have dictated to their other minions, dance Brewer dance.

God I wish this twit would dry up and fly away! She is, by far, the worst gov. in the history of this state - and that says a great deal!

this is the big push,all of these governors over reaching their agendas because they see Obama as a two term president.These governors probably believe this is their last chance for a long while to trample workers rights.I believe OWS is having more of an impact than even we believe.

SICKENING!

She's out of touch, out of her mind, now get her out of sight.

Missouri is doing away with prevailing wage

The Secret Service should have broken her finger...She is vile, she is a liar and she is a sick joke being played out in Arizona...

That is one freaky looking old Hag. I bet she has one sick and twisted mind when it comes to our rights.

She looks like Tammy Faye Bakker without make up or is Jimmy Hoffa?

Scott Walker went to see Jan Brewer recently in AZ and he told her "Don't worry about what happened in WI and Ohio. Go through with doing this to public workers." I really don't know who is more evil.....Walker or Brewer.

the people of arizona need to recalled her face (LOL)

Great post, thanks!
