Arizona Governor Jan Brewer "Encouraged" by Obama Meeting

[Bluebear]

President Obama sat down today at the White House with Arizona's Republican governor, Jan Brewer, to discuss the controversial immigration measure she signed in April.

The Arizona law requires immigrants in the state to carry documents verifying their immigration status and requires police officers to question a person about his or her immigration status during a "lawful stop" if there is "reasonable suspicion" that person may be in the country illegally...

"I am encouraged that there is going to be much better dialogue between the federal government and the state of Arizona," she said. "I hope that's not wishful thinking, I hope it's positive thinking."

Brewer said the president told her officials would head to her state in the next two weeks to see the situation firsthand and to consider how best to deploy federal border security resources.

1. Please, please support our Democratic candidate for Governor of Arizona!

We've got to get rid of Jan Brewer. And Terry Goddard is a great candidate!

2. Good.

3. Yeah, Jan, because God W. Bush paid so much attention to Janet Napolitano when she tried to do this

WITHOUT the drama and political posturing.

Lying ass, unelected cretin. I know Terry Goddard, I like Terry Goddard--and he doesn't kowtow to the racist, Arpaio-esque contingent of the state like you just couldn't keep yourself from doing. I will be dancing for so many reasons the first Tuesday in November--most especially, because the Hispanic community groups know how to GOTV.

And you are TOAST.
