So the most racist state in the nation is at it again. We didn’t learn our lesson back when we refused to recognize Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday – costing us millions in lost convention and tourism business. Now it’s Gov. Brewer’s anti-immigration idiocy. If you think the economy was bad in Arizona before, wait till we feel the full effects of her stupid racist move. We are truly the land of right wingnuts.

We must fight back and restore common-sense leadership in Arizona. Let’s start by boycotting Jan Brewer and electing fair-minded Democrats who will never let measures like SB1070 see the light of day.

That was an awful big sign “Taxed Enough Already” that a Tea Party person was holding up on the front page of the Roundup. Lady, you don’t appear, with your lovely beauty shop hairstyle and fingernails to be on the list of impending job layoffs. Are you sure you can’t afford a 1 cent increase in sales tax dedicated to education and public safety?

We are forced to agree with the Republicans on the Mexico border control of the drug traffic and deadly violence that has invaded Arizona. Our home in Star Valley was broken into twice by undocumented aliens. We had to move. The police were unable to protect us.

If the Roundup staff doesn’t yet understand that a sizable percentage of this community doesn’t trust them, that’s really sad. And that would appear to be the case because they continue to do the things that make people not trust them. Writing onesided stories that favor the incumbents and unchecked growth. And doing petty things to harm the competition – like calling advertisers and giving them a hard time for being in the Mogollon Connection, and getting angry with freelance photographers for sharing their photos with both papers. We have more than one restaurant. We have more than one pharmacy. Why don’t they get it that it’s OK to have more than one newspaper. A local newspaper needs to be on the side of the community – on the side of its readers, not the people who stand to profit at their expense. The Roundup is not, and that’s troubling.

Have you noticed that all the Roundup stories about Kenny the Who bringing ASU to Payson have one thing in common – they’re all about Kenny making claims that he has this in place and that in place without verification from an outside source. Now Kenny is claiming he has $500 million up for this venture. If it were true, he belongs on Wall Street. Come on Pete, ask the tough questions. Ask to see the money. Talk to people who have dealt with the mayor in the past about his veracity. Give us some responsible journalism.

Has anyone else noticed that Pete Aleshire doesn’t talk unless Mayor Kenny Evans is in the room. And you thought ventriloquism went out with Vaudeville.

How was it determined that the two break-ins at the writer's house were the work of undocumented aliens? If the police didn't know. how was that established?
