The transformation of Paul Babeu from politician to policeman reveals flaws neither inherent in politicians nor police, but reflect character of the person.  Let’s review the record.

Mitt Romney wants to let America hit bottom – that’s what he said.  

One of my grandma’s favorite statements was “If you always tell the truth, you never have to remember what you said.”  Admittedly, I wasn’t a quick learner but after a number of “switchings” with a willow branch, I began to see the light.

Candidates for the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, the Arizona Corporation Commission, the Arizona Legislature and Maricopa County are scheduled to attend SRP PIC’s 2012 Political Picnic, a non-partisan event that is one of the state’s largest election-year rallies.  The old-fashioned political rally offers members of the print and broadcast media and SRP employees the opportunity to interview at one location many of the candidates for the Nov. 6 general election.

Dear Editor,

I’m demanding that Jim Walsh, a SB 1070 opponent, recuse himself from defense of the law based on his previous statements siding with the opponents of the law.

Mitt Romney made a campaign stop in Mesa Monday night. A couple thousand supporters turned out to hear Mitt speak at the Mesa Amphitheatre. The venue was nearly full of excited fans.

The effort to recall Governor Jan Brewer kicked off today, Feb 11th, at Wesley Bolin Park at the State Capitol. Thousands of people were in Downtown Phoenix to celebrate the statehood centennial at Arizona Best Fest at the Capitol.

The group, led by community activist Leonard Clark, met at 10am to organize the volunteers. They passed out blank petitions to volunteers and as the crowds arrived at the Capitol, they began collecting signatures.

As of January 17th, 2012, San Tan Valley has new Congressional and Legislative districts. The Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission released their final maps of the new districts across Arizona.

All of the numbers and border lines have changed. The Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission worked hard last year to establish new lines. Much controversy was stirred up over whether the lines were fair, whether Colleen Mathis, the chair of the Commission was doing a good job or not, and over the legal efforts by Governor Brewer to replace her.
