Rational Resistance

If you're not outraged you're not paying attention.

Keep your pants on, Mr. President

There's good news tonight from an unexpected source: Arizona Governor Jan Brewer, she of illegal alien law fame, has vetoed Arizona's birther bill.

Brewer said in her veto letter that she was troubled that the bill empowered Arizona's secretary of state to judge the qualifications of all candidates when they file to run for office.

"I do not support designating one person as the gatekeeper to the ballot for a candidate, which could lead to arbitrary or politically motivated decisions," said Brewer, who was secretary of state until she became governor in 2009.


I think she was also concerned that it might be a bit distasteful to ask the President of the United States to prove he was circumcised.
