In today's (Jan. 10) Arizona Republic, columnists Laurie Roberts and E. J. Montini excoriate your Arizona State Legislature and Gov. Jan Brewer.
The legislature is back in session and Roberts worries that the 386 bills passed in 100 days last year (including one to protect Happy Meals) will be easily eclipsed this season. "That's more than three new laws a day from this, the crew that craves limited government," she notes.
Montini, meanwhile, reflects on Brewer's State of the State Speech, in which she noted that "Arizona has been saved." He disses her praising herself for standing up to the federal government by asking a few "logic questions" like: "How is it that she believes SB1070 supersedes federal law at the same time that she believes federal law supersedes state law for medical marijuana?"
If you don't subscribe to the Republic, pick up a copy when you're in town today. You can also read Roberts' and Montini's columns by clicking news.azcentral.com. Just scroll down to "Voices."
But why not wake up to the Republic in your driveway seven days a week? Just call 1-800-332-6733 to subscribe. With great columnists, national sports, Safeway and Bashas' grocery ads, TV listings, hundreds of dollars in coupons and the big Sunday paper, it's an attractive alternative to a twice-a-week local paper chock full of court and police reports and the latest adventures of Kenny Evans - but not opposing political viewpoints.
