Arizona is well known for beautiful parks, wonderful terrain and lots of people who love to spend time outdoors.
Today, the Obama administration officially announced that US sovereignty does not include portions of Arizona.
Annie Jacobsen posted this today:
"Eighty-five miles northwest of Tucson lies the Sonoran Desert National Monument, a lovely area designated as a national park by one of the last acts of Bill Clinton’s presidency.
Today, the road to get there is closed."
Yes, it is now officially unsafe for Arizona's families to enjoy their own state.
Yes, Arizona's taxpayers can no longer enjoy the parks that their taxes support.
Why is this happening?
The simple answer is that the US-Mexico border is a war zone:
"An American national monument has become a drug-smuggling corridor between Mexico and the southwest.
Wars between Mexican drug cartels have grown so severe in the park that the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM), who manages it, says it’s too dangerous to enter."
Why is this happening?
Because our "I desperately need Mexican-Americans to turn out in November" Pres BO does not want to defend the homeland.
This is a disgrace and Arizona has every right to feel outraged!
Do you understand now why Arizona's Democrats are desperately calling on Pres BO to stop lawsuits against their state?
Dick Morris has a great post about Pres BO courting the Hispano vote:
"Why is President Obama suing to invalidate the Arizona law on illegal immigration?
Why is he incurring the enmity of even his own Democratic Congressmen from the Phoenix and Tucson areas by trying to kill a law that two-thirds of Arizona and a similar proportion of America as a whole supports?
The answer: It is a desperate, last ditch attempt to rebuild his sagging popularity with America’s Hispanic voters.
Furious at Obama for failing to keep his election year promise to promote comprehensive immigration reform when he had a super-majority at his disposal, they are deserting the president and his party in droves.
Unemployment, a sagging economy, and their sharp disagreement with Obama over social issues don’t help the president’s cause any.
So Obama has seized on the Arizona immigration law as a symbolic target, hoping to accomplish in a lawsuit the political task of rebuilding his base."
"Hispanos" are also coming to terms with the reality that they voted for change but got a Dem majority that won't fulfill a campaign promise: Key Dem Rep says immigration reform doesn’t have the votes this year!
The Arizona situation is insane but this is Obama, the man who sat in Rev Wright's church for 20 years but never heard a racist or anti-Jewish sermon.
Frankly, I never thought that I would see our federal government tell its citizens that a park is unsafe for families to go camping, picnics or hiking.
Again, this is BO's world!
Thankfully, more and more Americans, including the millions of "hispanos" who came here legally and love "the rule of law" are checking out of "the hope and change" express.
P.S. We love Gov Brewer. It's nice to see that someone has "pantalones" in this debate.
