Another stellar mind :w00t2: While its often said that a mind is a terrible thing to waste, this councilwoman apparently has a mind that is made of waste :yum:
 
That was almost painful to watch.
Did you notice the blonde haired woman below camera shot... I am thinking she was shifting in her seat. As for the rep who got up and spoke after she did, I am wondering if the tightness in his throat/speech was suppressed ummm something.
Gotta say, this woman had balls to get up and say this.
OUCH!
 
Not balls, Little Pirate. Just sheer, abject ignorance. It's absolutely mind boggleing that someone with this level of incompetence can serve in the government. Is "boggeling or boggleing" correct. I'm dumber than she is.

What's really mind-boggling (correct spelling) to me? There are a whole bucket load of people out there who thought she was bright enough to be elected to this position in the first place!! That speaks volumes about the intellectual level of her constituents, doesn't it?:whistling:

I'd say "Dumb as a box of rocks!", but I'm afraid that would be an insult to the rocks!:yum::yum:

 
Some Californians don't know their own laws!

As California decries the Arizona Immigration Law, guess what California law says:

California Penal Code Section 834b

(a) Every law enforcement agency in California shall fully
cooperate with the United States Immigration and Naturalization
Service regarding any person who is arrested if he or she is
suspected of being present in the United States in violation of
federal immigration laws.
(b) With respect to any such person who is arrested, and suspected
of being present in the United States in violation of federal
immigration laws, every law enforcement agency shall do the
following:
(1) Attempt to verify the legal status of such person as a citizen
of the United States, an alien lawfully admitted as a permanent
resident, an alien lawfully admitted for a temporary period of time
or as an alien who is present in the United States in violation of
immigration laws. The verification process may include, but shall not
be limited to, questioning the person regarding his or her date and
place of birth, and entry into the United States, and demanding
documentation to indicate his or her legal status.
(2) Notify the person of his or her apparent status as an alien
who is present in the United States in violation of federal
immigration laws and inform him or her that, apart from any criminal
justice proceedings, he or she must either obtain legal status or
leave the United States.
(3) Notify the Attorney General of California and the United
States Immigration and Naturalization Service of the apparent illegal
status and provide any additional information that may be requested
by any other public entity.
(c) Any legislative, administrative, or other action by a city,
county, or other legally authorized local governmental entity with
jurisdictional boundaries, or by a law enforcement agency, to prevent
or limit the cooperation required by subdivision (a) is expressly
prohibited.

Gee whizz it sounds a lot like AZ law and Federal law.

THe AZ statute requires that law enforcement verify immigration status when there is a legal contact between an LEO and an individual. The California statute requires the immigration status verification only in the event of an arrest of that person.
 
Arizona Doesn't Border Mexico?

Miss South Carolina Teen 2007, you have competition from an elected official.

Peggy West and the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

This is priceless.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel has finally done a story on Milwaukee County Supervisor Peggy West and her cluelessness about Arizona and its borders.

Rather than report on the shocking nature of West's comments, the Journal Sentinel reports on the fact that her comments have become part of the national discussion.
County supervisor's geography gaffe gets replay nationwide

Milwaukee County Supervisor Peggy West became a national phenomenon Friday, though not in a way she'd like.

West's misstatement about Arizona geography, part of comments she made at Thursday's County Board meeting, wound up on local television and quickly became an Internet phenomenon.

In supporting a proposed county boycott of business with Arizona, she said Arizona did not share a border with Mexico. The gaffe was captured by WTMJ-TV (Channel 4).​
West made a "misstatement."

Her "gaffe" received nationwide play.

So the story becomes about West being a "national phenomenon," rather than an incompetent fool unfit to be voting on the County Board's proposed boycott of Arizona.

Why isn't the Journal Sentinel giving West the Sarah Palin treatment?

Where is the "West is so stupid that it's scary" stuff? Where is the "West is too stupid to serve in public office"? Where is the mocking and ridicule?

Nowhere to be seen.

No, West isn't stupid according to the JS. She just misspoke.

That, of course, is absurd.

West clearly was confused about the location of Arizona and Mexico. Her own words, her relatively lengthy remarks explaining her position on the measure being debated at the Board meeting, attest to that.

It was no gaffe.
...West's faux pas spread across the Web, got picked up by a host of Arizona media outlets, and then became fodder for talk radio hosts. The County Board switchboard on Friday was inundated with calls from around the country.​
West's "faux pas," her little boo-boo, became a national story.

"Faux pas"?

No. No way. It wasn't a "faux pas." It was her incredible stupidity that made Peggy West nationally known overnight.

The Journal Sentinel doesn't address that reality at all. There's no discussion of that important aspect of the story whatsoever.

I contend that is as embarrassing as West's ignorance.

I wonder if after a statement like that if the people of her district will realize she is a utter and complete dolt, and if they may consider removing her from her seat due to incompitence... well stupidity at least...

Either that or the DNC may be looking for a new leader.....

Saying something stupid in front of a bunch of people, verses saying in on a tape makes a different outlook.

If you say you were being misunderstood enough times, all the people will start to believe you, but have the tape played over and over with exactly what you said, makes it a bit harder to get the sheeple to believe you "Mis spoke"... specially when you have your foot in your mouth and the shoelaces hanging out of your mouth...

Now Mark, you know by now none of that matters.
They? them, those people of that particular party affliliation don't care.
Doesn't matter if it's on tape for the world to see, somehow they are covered under a blanket of excuses because the one is in charge of the playground at the moment.
It's all part of the bullshit game that is wrecking this country and driving us into the ground from all corners of these United States.
She is just one small example of the circus running the show.
Never mind bread and circuses, let's all feast on popcorn until the next election-- then we can eat cake... I hope.
