Endorsement - Dave Hodges

Mon, 06 Nov 2006 09:37:32 -0600

The upcoming election is an important one as Arizonans will make some crucial decisions which could immediately impact our lives in the areas of border enforcement, healthcare, education and the economy. I have basically taken an anti-incumbent "Toss them all" theme to this year's political candidates. As CNN has so aptly put it, we suffer from a "broken government". The only way to change government is to change the people that we put in government. I am not voting for the candidate that has popularized this saying, but I agree with the sentiment. Despite the housecleaning approach that I think the country should employ, I have actually found myself endorsing just a few well-deserving candidates for re-election.

THE CANDIDATES

Endorsement - Craig Cantoni: Send a Message on Election Day

To: undisclosed-recipients:;

Given that Republican gubernatorial candidate Len Munsil is going to lose by a wide margin to the Democratic incumbent, it's an ideal time to send a message to the political establishment by voting for the Libertarian candidate, Barry Hess. Many people agree with the libertarian philosophy that people should be allowed to live like they want as long as they don't harm anyone else, but they consider a vote for a Libertarian candidate as a wasted vote that takes votes away from Republicans, because Libertarians have little chance of winning. Since the Republican is going to lose anyway, the argument doesn't hold. Besides, Hess is the best candidate and the only one who would change the status quo.

Fenger points the way to vote: Hess

Tue, 31 Oct 2006 01:18:27 -0600

Becky Fenger writes:

While we are on the subject of suggestions, how about this one: All voters who oppose Gov. Janet Napolitano should vote for Libertarian gubernatorial candidate Barry Hess. I see no way that Len Munsil can close the gap, especially with moderate Republican women voting for Janet on the basis of their ovaries. That way, if Hess gets five percent of the vote, Libertarians will automatically be qualified for the ballot next cycle and save them lots of labor. Besides, anyone who has seen Hess in the debates would have to say he won the rounds.

No on Prop 107 - argument 2 of 2

Mon, 30 Oct 2006 21:05:37 -0600

Prop. 107, among its many components, would cancel existing and prevent future domestic partnership benefits offered by private sector employers. This is a violation of the fundamental rights of private property, freedom of association and is an unwarranted intrusion of government into the private contracts between employers and employees. The government has neither the right nor authority to regulate these benefits in the private sector.

Prop. 107 is promoted as “protecting” the sanctity and tradition of marriage as between a man and a woman. Their argument is flawed and addressed in our Prop. 107 (argument 1). Other groups protest 107 for removing current and prohibiting future domestic partnership benefits for employees of the State and its political subdivisions. Their argument is also flawed but is irrelevant to this discussion. It is within the rights of the people to determine what their government does.

No on Prop 107 - argument 1 of 2

Mon, 30 Oct 2006 20:20:11 -0600

I am a Christian and I cannot support the proposition precisely because I am. I have to stand by doing the 'right' thing and I refuse to allow Caesar (Government--Man's Law) to have anything to do with God's holy institution. By allowing government to be the judge and to set down the 'rules' regarding inter-personal relationships, you end up removing God himself. If the non-believers who came up with this atrocious proposal were actually Christian and respecters of God's law--they would instead have proposed that we end government licensure of marriage altogether. I don't believe the authors were actually Christians, I believe they are doing the work of the Enemy. This amendment could only be forwarded by people who simply want to force their will into the private lives of others. While I confess that I do not understand or support the whole 'gay' thing this is aimed at, I will not sully my holy God by kidding myself into thinking He wants the corruption of government involved in what is His alone.

Therefore, as a true Christian who knows that God's a big guy who can and will take care of what's his--I have to refuse any support what-so-ever. I support holy marriage, not state marriage.

Clean Elections? Play with Dirty Money, Get Dirty Hands

Mon, 30 Oct 2006 12:53:10 -0600

While the politicans play their usual dirty tricks and silly games, WE the TAXPAYERS get stuck paying the bill.

What would be interesting is to find out why, if the other two candidates are so proud of their records or message, they have to take our money to advance to their cause?

Add up the possible theft of two Republican campaign mailers and an apparently premature request by Democratic Gov. Janet Napolitano's re-election campaign for public matching funds, and state GOP officials are crying foul

Maricopa Election Official: It's not our fault

Mon, 30 Oct 2006 12:21:06 -0600

Excerpt:

"Election officials said early voters who have complained that they haven't received their ballots yet shouldn't worry. They're on the way.

"There are a lot of factors as to why they haven't received their ballots. I know the post office is a little bit slow," said Yvonne Reid, spokeswoman for the Maricopa County Elections Office."

It's not our fault!

The checks in the mail?

What's next?

The dog ate my homework!

What's going to happen on the ballot's return trip back to be counted? Is it still going to be "in the hands of the post office"?

Tucson Citizen Endorses Failure

Sun, 29 Oct 2006 19:11:34 -0600

Tucson Citizen Endorses Failure.

The Tucson Citizen, in a 466-word editorial, endorsed failure; in other words, they endorsed Janet for re-election as governor.

Let's look at their "reasoning" for this stunning endorsement.

“Education has been Napolitano's signature issue during her four years at the state's helm.”

Yep, Janet said she would give us her best on education. Unfortunately, she did. And her best took AZ education from 44th to 50th in the nation. With another four years, who knows how low she can take us. Is 51st out of the question?

It's a Start - An AZ Republic article: fair and balanced

Tue, 24 Oct 2006 20:01:26 -0500

It was refreshing to see this reporter doing a better job of reporting, instead of distorting Barry's positions.

Excerpts:

"Three candidates for governor. Three wildly different plans to address illegal immigration."

"Three candidates, three border plans. One big decision for voters."

No doubt in this article about how many candidates for Governor there are.

Let's hope this is the start of a trend in fair reporting and not a one time event.

Governor candidates differ on border solutions
