Re: “Councilman Steve Kozachik vs. Metro Chamber Prez Mike Varney”
So if you are a gay person that objects to a university that teaches its students that they are going to Hell if they dare to be honest about their sexual orientation you are a "single issue extremist". We should not be encouraging a university that promotes hatred and belief in old Jewish fairy tales. Varney evidently forgets that there is a large and dynamic community of gays in Tucson with real buying power. Of course, what can you expect from a Chamber of Commerce dupe... he's just doing the bidding of extremist tea party Republicans. Another angry old White guy
Re: “Councilman Steve Kozachik vs. Metro Chamber Prez Mike Varney”
I've been in Tucson 20 years now, and I have to admit I've never seen a region that so steadfastly clings to -- nay, celebrates! -- mediocrity the way people here do. But even setting that aside, El Rio Golf Course is a terrible location for GCU, and for once I agree with something the council did by scuttling that idea. Let 'em find a different location. They can still bring their jobs and all that other stuff to the area without being located at THAT spot.

There's an old saying that goes "you can't polish a turd" and the turds in this scenario would be these songs. Could this be the reason why the producers figure the only direction to go with these songs is to dumb them down even further? It's amazing to me that anyone pays attention to any of this cookie cutter crap.

Holy sweet mother of jesus... Why would anyone, including "kidz" want to listen to that mockery???
Re: “Councilman Steve Kozachik vs. Metro Chamber Prez Mike Varney”
I guess that answers the question about why Steve's opponents haven't found a candidate to run against him: they think the election is next year.
Re: “Boehner: Immigration Bill Will Require Support of GOP House Majority”
Dave Francis - You topped out the "crackpot conspiracy" meter when you cast Michele Bachman in a positive light.
Go back to stockpiling AKs and hanging out with your militia buddies.
P.S. Fox News isn't the most truthful news source. Actually, you'd be better off watching The Cartoon Network, it's more your speed.
Darla, See the above P.S.
No Amnesty- You said,
"There has been an increase in border crossings (illegally) ever since all this talk of amnesty for illegal aliens. See these people see nothing wrong with coming here illegally, driving without a license or insurance, stealing your social security number to open a bank account or to get a job. Allowing millions to become citizens is like saying "good job" jumping over the borders, here's your REWARD!"
You forgot the most important thing......... WHEN THE MILLIONS ARRIVE THEY ARE PLANNING TO OPEN UP TACO STANDS AND THEY'RE GOING TO SERVE WHITE BABY TACOS MADE OUT OF REAL WHITE BABIES.
It's all a big cannibalistic plot to get rid of whitey.
riorican, Is there something in the water here that turns people into such bigoted redneck peckerwoods?
Re: “Councilman Steve Kozachik vs. Metro Chamber Prez Mike Varney”
i guess you dislike people would rather see the police respond to someone smokeing a joint than to respond to a real life threatening emergencys, times are changeing people, the old people are are dieing off and being replaced four times over by young voters, we will put an end to thease unjust laws and prision for profit industrys that take advantage of cannabis users clogging the courts and costing tax payers millions of dollars to prosacute! we will overcome!
Re: “Councilman Steve Kozachik vs. Metro Chamber Prez Mike Varney”
"a $25 million private sector gift to bring CAP water" - whose selfless generosity is responsible for this? They most certainly deserve some recognition for making a contribution this size to the Metro Chamber in exchange for nothing in return. Any affiliation with AWWA, SAWUA, or Water for People?
Re: “A New Billy the Kid?”
I have a few questions maybe someone can answer for me.Ive only been looking into this subject a short time, but how come we have so much info about John Miller and his interactions with his friends,neighbors and other outlaws and his talents with guns and horses but Brushy's stories don't seem to have that same feel.John and his wife were always moving around even in their later years, doesn't that seem odd?I mean he always had a gun on him and why? Seems to me he was a bit paranoid.I guess I don't know both men have interesting sides.One I am sure of is that both men were part of that Lincoln co war.They both know to many small details about it.
Re: “There's a Trailer for 'Anchorman 2' Now”
the original was amazing!
Re: “There's a Trailer for 'Anchorman 2' Now”
Now I remember why I didn't see the original.
Re: “Councilman Steve Kozachik vs. Metro Chamber Prez Mike Varney”
vote steve kozachik out of office in 2014
Re: “Councilman Steve Kozachik vs. Metro Chamber Prez Mike Varney”
steve should be voted out of office!, he is just another flip-floping politition that changed his party from republican to democrate so that he can run un-opposed!, he is not to be trusted, he wont even talk to my associates to make cannabis offences in tucson the lowest police priority freeing them up to anser to assalts, burgularies, and other life threatening calls, we have added him to our mmj axis of evil, 70% of voters in his ward voted for medical mmj and he is just turning his back on them, we are working on getting someone to run against him, please help to vote him out of office in the next election and replace him with someone that will work for the voters.....we appaloud the actions of paul cunningham and karen urich, thease two people have a future in politics!
Re: “Nearly Excellent Neapolitan”
Jacqui, I, too, will be requesting pizza for my last meal. But where to get if from is the big question. I guess that'll depend on my mood on my final day.
Re: “Boehner: Immigration Bill Will Require Support of GOP House Majority”
Hola, "NO AMNESTY."
When you write, "there has been an increase in border crossings," I can only tell you that such is not so.
But then, I can only go on my experience from actually living on the border.
It's been a very long time since I've met an "illegal" here.
Re: “Boehner: Immigration Bill Will Require Support of GOP House Majority”
Actually, Darla, the brave Border Patrol Agent Brian Kelley may have been tragically killed by friendly fire.
The shot that tragically killed him was in his back.
Re: “Boehner: Immigration Bill Will Require Support of GOP House Majority”
Riorican...nice little world you have there. Unfortunately I do live in a town within a hundred miles of the border, and believe me...according to Border Patrol, and local news illegal crossings into the Untied States has increased since all this talk of amnesty. Keep your head in the sand and you will be okay. Wasn't Rio Rico the area where Border Patrol agent Brian Terry was murdered...I know it was there or very close to that area.
Yeah...real safe for illegal aliens, but no so much for Border Patrol.
