In what can only be described as a perfect example of another liberal talking about, voting on, and promoting something she has absolutely no clue about, the following story should certainly raise a few eyebrows. But it probably won't.
What am I talking about? Nancy Pelosi and the health care bill? Hillary Clinton and foreign policy? Janet Napolitano and national security? Well, yes, all of those but specifically I'm talking about the latest liberal moron who displayed exactly the danger these people present.
Who is this liberal Einstein? Peggy West, a County Supervisor in Milwaukee, Wi. Milwaukee County is considering a ban on Arizona to protest their immigration policy. What did this liberal have to say about Arizona? (You might want to sit down for this...)
“If this was Texas, which is a state that is directly on the border with Mexico, and they were calling for a measure like this saying that they had a major issue with undocumented people flooding their borders, I would have to look twice at this. But this is a state that is a ways removed from the border,”
(For Ms. West's convenience, and the rest of the uninformed liberals in the audience, I have included a link to a map of the United States (http://www.united-states-map.com/usa7243z.htm) as a visual aid. You'll find Arizona clearly labeled in the bottom left of the map. See that area just below the Arizona border? That is Mexico. Now, back to the story.)
Ok, so maybe Ms. West was just mistaken. Later, she said she had just misspoken. Really? What exactly did she misspeak? The fact that Arizona was not a border state with Mexico was the entire point of her speech. She didn't just mispronounce a word. It was her entire point that since Arizona was 'a ways removed from the border', they had no right to complain. Texas on the other hand - now that she'd have to take a second look at. So by definition and her own admission, she must now reconsider her position, right? Now that she has been educated and informed - something that typically shakes up a liberal - she must take that 'second look' she talks about. Right?
I believe it was Abraham Lincoln who said, "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt." Ms. West epitomizes that sentiment. The woman is a fool, ignorant, and a liar. When questioned later, Ms. West had this to say about her complete ignorance -
“I did get a passing grade in Geography in high school and in college and I do obviously know that Arizona is on the border… Had Texas come out with the legislation, having the largest border, I think that I would be more receptive to the fact that there was a problem. But having it be Arizona, having it be the second largest boarder and knowing there are troops on the border in Arizona, it didn’t seem to me that this legislation was particularly necessary at this moment in time,”
"I do obviously know that Arizona is on the border"? What about "this is a state a ways removed from the border"? "And knowing there are troops on the border"... Does she know those troops are not there for anything to do will illegal immigration (http://stevescomments.wordpress.com/2010/05/28/obama-sending-1200-us-troops-to-border-but-not-to-enforce-immigration/)? Of course not. This dolt can't even find Arizona on a map.
The reality is, these people have no idea what they are talking about. I would be willing to bet anything you'd like to bet, this woman has never read the law, doesn't know the first thing about it and is making these statements not for the good of the people, but strictly for political reasons. And these are the people we expect to lead this nation? It is truly frightening.
Here is a woman, who is pandering for the boycott of an American state, in favor of supporting illegal immigration, yet she doesn't have the first clue where Arizona - or apparently Mexico, is located.
Want to hear the closer? Ms. West is Hispanic. I shit you not.
I wonder - is Arizona maybe one of those 57 states (http://newsbusters.org/blogs/john-stephenson/2008/05/09/obama-says-hes-visited-57-states) Obama was talking about?
