Re: “Councilman Steve Kozachik vs. Metro Chamber Prez Mike Varney”

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.

Now I remember why I didn't see the original.

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.
Re: “Boehner: Immigration Bill Will Require Support of GOP House Majority”
I agree with Mr. Francis....he's informed where most like "riorican" are living in a dream world. Riorican may be happy with his or her little part of the world, but seriously this amnesty will affect every American citizen and NOT in a good way. It only serves illegal aliens, foreign workers and will not serve the people...we Americans.
It's amazing how little our government is concerned with American citizens. We are at the bottom of the pile when it comes to protecting our rights, protecting our border, protecting our citizens from being victims of Identity fraud, which is very high in states like Arizona because of a large population of illegal aliens and foreign nationals living here on Visas. Protecting our borders should be job one, keeping criminals out; keeping terrorist out; keeping human smugglers out and keeping the drug cartels out of our country should be the objective of our government, not pandering to illegal aliens, and foreigners.
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!
Re: “Grijalva on GOP Anti-Abortion Bill: "It Is Time To Stop Hurting America's Woman and Put People Back To Work"”
Same old bad mouthing of Republicans by the Democrats with old worn out "war on women" bull. Get a new line Democrats...it's getting very old. How can Democrats in congress see nothing wrong with aborting babies (even in late term) that were female? Hypocrites. War on women...how about war on babies! Of course babies can't vote, therefore they are mere trash to the PARTY.
Re: “Immigration Reform Would Shave $200 Billion From Deficit”
It all comes down to Politics, not what is best for the USA. An unsecured border is not good for the USA, nor is it good to add millions of people to our country who would be able to compete with American citizens for jobs; millions to our welfare system, food stamps, social services, and the list goes on and on. It's all about getting the vote for their party. It's shameful that American citizens are thrown to the side, while the Democrats especially, pander to those illegally here in this country. I have lost all faith in this government which no longer represents it's people...American citizens!
Re: “State Budget Tidbits: More Money for Arts and Parks”
Both parks and arts contribute to economic development as well as to human interactions and lifting the spirits. A good decision!
Re: “Boehner: Immigration Bill Will Require Support of GOP House Majority”
And so, Mr. Francis? Where do you live?
Might it be a good idea for you to visit the border?
Please do come on down to take an early morning walk with me and my dog down in the perfectly safe Santa Cruz River Valley here in Rio Rico. You'll find no "onslaught of illegal aliens," whatsoever.
Afterwards, I'll drive you over to La Posada, a tiny, "mom'n'pop" restaurant in El Centro, Nogales, Sonora, which serves the best chili colorado in the Universe.
When we finish dining, we'll go relax in a newly cobblestoned plaza to mingle with some of the friendliest people on the face of the earth, which might even include a few of those dreaded "illegals" you seem to fear so deeply.
You'll come back to the States smiling.
Guaranteed!

The TUSD taxpayers are getting a bag...
Re: “Nearly Excellent Neapolitan”
We had dinner there last night. We had the Caesar salad with more of a vinaigrette than a traditional caesar dressing. Nice portion for $9. My wife and split the cura, which was very sparsely populated with soppressata and a few calamata olives. The salad took about 20 minutes to come out and then the pizza followed 10 minutes later. Pizza from a wood burning oven should come out bubbling hot and this was not. It was hot but clearly it sat on the counter for a good five minutes before it came out. Wood fired pizza should be crunchy on the bottom, but this was a bit floppy. They mention on the menu "We request no substitutions, but let us know if we can do something for you". Well... it seems to me if they really wanted to do something for me, they would allow substitutions...As mentioned in the review, beer selection was very small. Not a bad meal, just somewhere marginally above average. Service was slow, but pleasant.

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?
