AZ Gov. Jan Brewer: Why Is Obama Is Picking On Me?---Sequestration In Place To "Punish AZ"

“Well, you know, I personally believe it could be payback,” Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer said. “It could be to punish Arizona, to make them squirm. They’re pushing back on what we’re pushing on because we want our border secure and we’re strong about it.”

Asked whether Washington was “picking on you,” she replied: “I think it’s pretty obvious that they’re doing everything in their power.”

Like Obama would do something that created all this crap just to "punish" one crappy bigoted state.

If he wanted to punish AZ she would never know it happened until after it happened.

Just wait until the defense cuts begin taking hold in South Carolina. Expect major dramatics and scenery eating from Senator Graham.
