Defending Arizona: Our AWOL Representatives

WHERE are our sitting US Senators, McCain and Kyl, all our Arizona Congressmen and Congresswomen, publically and vociferously defending Arizona and Arizona local law enforcement on the floor of the Senate and the House and through every and all media outlet, against the Obama Administration’s cynical and toxic approval of coordinated campaigns to dishonestly smear our police, sheriffs and deputies as racists, agitating street violence by bussing in professional protestors with radios and scanners to harass, interfere with, abuse and exhaust local law enforcement officers?  WHERE are they denouncing all Unconstitutional actions to destroy domestic tranquillity by divisive and damaging boycotts against Arizona and Arizonans?

AZ law enforcement is under siege and our two senators are AWOL; AWOL for Federal enforcement actions, border security and AWOL for addressing local AZ state hardships. Aren’t they sent to Washington by the citizens of this state to advocate and use all their political skills to insure that Federal border responsibilities are met for the protection of Arizonans, and by that, all Americans? Pick a random agitator from one of “32 unions” advertised as rolling into Arizona this past week from out of state, and ask what party they vote for: DEMOCRAT. Pick a random boycotting-voting LA City Council member, what party are they of: DEMOCRAT. A California city mayor decreeing a rupture of city business with Arizona: DEMOCRAT. A random pick of a boycotting non-governmental organization voter from say, La Raza: DEMOCRAT. An Arizona-elected Congressman encouraging a boycott of Arizonans for wanting to enforce the laws of our nation: DEMOCRAT. An Arizona city mayor disparaging the men and women in the police and sheriff’s departments who keep him safe: DEMOCRAT.  Given that partisan behavior, how much credibile action to preserve our domestic tranquillity can we expect from ANY of our representatives who belong to the Democratic Party?   NO respresentative, Democrat or Republican should have anything to do with such corrosive tactics, but evidently the Democrats perceive too much politican gain to listen to reason or to refresh their oaths to preserve the Constitution. 

It’s more than a disgrace that this is falling along partisan political lines when the threat to our domestic tranquility – our local, state and national security – will negatively affect everyone, no matter the political party or ideology. With the Democratic Party loyalties of the overwhelming majority of the agitators, on the streets, in the courts, in the media, and in Congress, and nothing but divisive rhetoric coupled with willingness to act on boycotting from the Democratic Party, we look to the Republican Party to bring this back to reason, rationality and self-preservation of the nation.

So, where are the REPUBLICANS who are DENOUNCING this injustice? Arizona sent not one, but TWO Republican Senators to Washington. Where are the photos of them standing shoulder to shoulder with Governor Jan Brewer, or with Sheriff Joe Arpaio, or the deputies of Maricopa county, or the police of Nogales and Tucson, or relentlessly on national media insisting that freedom to speak one’s mind politically, and peaceful marches is one thing, but blocking traffic, making physical obstructions so that citizens can’t get to work on time, defacing and damaging public and private property, engineering chaos so that businesses can’t reach their customers, anarchist mobbing and banging at the county jail gates as part of a plan to harass and overwhelm policing,” is quite another thing. So is inexcusable silence from ALL our elected officials as Arizonans are smeared nationally by the Democrats in the administration, the Congress, the national media, and internationally by our State Department, hypocritically employing what they claim they are against,  massive group stereotyping and profiling, as “racists.”

Hispanic” is a precise term in linguistics, but a very mushy and undefined one in international terms, encompassing people from over a dozen countries – on three continents, with many accents, dialects and cultural differences. Does this “Hispanic” favoritism extend to the Spanish of Spain or the West Africans of the Spanish Western Sahara or is it really code for a specific country, favored even over its own “Hispanic” neighbors? With “brown people” invoked even more frequently by Democrats now than “Hispanic,” then surely the Hispanics of Africa’s Equatorial Guinea are far browner than ANY Central or South American could EVER aspire to be, so by the reasoning, shouldn’t then Equatorial Guineans get to be head of the line for a freebie to definitely prove to everyone that Americans or specifically Arizonans, are not racists?

If the oft-invoked, yet actually undefined “Hispanic” community succeeds in unlawfully forcing capitulation to allow “Hispanic” foreigners of a specified geopolitical zone, to jump the queue of legal applications for US citizenship, before all others, then who’s the NEXT group who will try mob rule to get what they want?  If it works, then it’ll become the “process.”  How many people doing it by the book will throw down their two-three-four-five years of applications, paperwork and fees with a, “The hell with this!” in disgust?

Arizona is already host to organized crime expanding out of its base in Mexico.  That the average Arizonan citizen doesn’t see much of it is a testimony to the effectiveness and diligence of our LOCAL law enforcement in confronting and containing this violent and dangerous foreign-based criminality.  WHERE are our elected officials publically thanking our law enforcement, showing solidarity, and assuring them and the public, in word and in deed, that they back every single man and women in law enforcement in Arizona?

Actions have consequences, long term consequences, sometimes irrevocable consequences. Degeneration and decay take far less energy and effort than advancement and improvement.  A loss of trust is nearly impossible to restore.  A failure to uphold fair application of laws will lead to rampant lawlessness in all levels of society.  An unwillingness to defend, by representatives who were elected by their constituents, who are the PEOPLE of the Constitution of the United States, is a failure and especially in this case, that has long-term local, state and national ramifications, none of them positive.  The People, as voters, have the responsibility to chose their representatives wisely, take personal responsibility to become informed, to be active, and to hold their representatives accountable.

Perhaps Americans have to live through a period of chaos and destruction before they truly comprehend what they had, and squandered … but with little hope then of ever recovering it.

Statement by Jim Deakin Campaign Regarding Foreclosure

Statement from Jim Regarding Personal Disclosure

Phoenix, AZ (8/01) – To keep all of my supporters directly in touch with my campaign I am being interviewed on FOX News and here is my statement in its entirety:

The ever increasing popularity of my Citizen Candidate campaign and the slump of my opponents has forced them to focus their failed mudslinging from each other and onto me.

Last week the Hayworth operatives were saying I was being funded by McCain, this week they are telling you that I am broke and losing my home. Obviously the previous attacks were complete fabrications as I have repeatedly stated.

The truth is, like many of the citizens of Arizona, I have been struggling, which is why I am a TEA Party activist. I am upside down in my mortgage. But I am not losing my home. In fact, the proceeding has been canceled [a statement issued 50 minutes removed this sentence].

I am a small businessman who resigned my position this year to campaign full time. I have been campaigning against the failed policies of my opponents for 20 months. I do not receive a paycheck from the government, PAC money from fake tea party groups or a royalty check from selling infomercials. So therefore it has been a struggle for me personally, and on the campaign trail, but I am doing it for the right reasons.

Small businesses have been struggling because of the burdensome taxation and regulation implemented by both of my opponents. HUD amendments enacted by my opponents and the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act allows greedy bankers to create the derivatives market resulting in the crisis we have all experienced since 2008.

My personal situation, as a struggling homeowner, a small businessman and as a citizen candidate gives me a unique perspective and desire to protect the life blood of our economy – the small business – from ever again experiencing the failures of our representatives.

We, as proud citizens of Arizona, must come to realize that we do have a choice on election day; vote for either of the politicians who put us in this position or vote for Jim Deakin, your citizen candidate who shares your experiences and will represent your interests in Washington D.C.

- Jim

Here’s Jim

As a family man I’m concerned about our children’s future and know that the future of all Arizonan’s should reside within our State, not with the Federal Government. As a Navy veteran I stand with conviction and integrity to support and defend our Constitution. As an entrepreneur I know the importance of a free market system where the people are responsible for the economy, not the Government.

My respect and admiration of the Founding Fathers and our Constitution leads me to restore our Country to the principles of liberty. By staying committed to the underlying beliefs of the Founders and the Constitution, by limiting the scope of governmental authority and applying honesty and integrity in my decisions I will prove to be the right choice for US Senator.

If you’ve had enough of the politics you do have a choice.
