If Sen. Barack Obama wins the presidential race and Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano takes a job in his administration, Secretary of State Jan Brewer would become governor.

What would she do?

Brewer said the scenario is all speculation at this point, but one of her priorities would be illegal immigration.

``We need to secure the borders, we have got to secure the borders," Brewer told News/Talk 92-3 KTAR's Jay Lawrence. She added that some type of legal program is needed to get workers needed into the United States.

Brewer, a Republican, said she and the Legislature could get a lot done.

``Together, between the Legislature and me, given the circumstances, we should be able to go in there and do what we need to do here in Arizona," she said.

Brewer said she would cut state spending and make the state live within its means.

Republicans have the majority in the state Senate and House at present; however, that could change in the November election. Napolitano is a Democrat.

ok :P

more Hypebold . Same old same old . Say 1 thing , do the other .

We need to secure the borders, we have got to secure the borders," Brewer told News/Talk 92-3 KTAR's Jay Lawrence. She added that some type of legal program is needed to get workers needed into the United States.




Need she be reminded that we already have numerous programs to accomplish exactly that?

The problem is getting those workers to go the hell home when they are supposed to.

The only way that guest worker programs are going to work.....in any form.....is if the guest workers understand that they will not be the recipients of any benefits while here, will not be permitted to bring their families, and will not receive any special consideration in terms of legal status.

10 guest workers programs to be exact! how the hell many do they need?

I live in Arizona, and I'm all for that. Elect Obama, have him hire away Napolitano and make Jan Brewer Governor. :P

That many? Wow.

This issue...like so many others...has become so bogged down in legislation that I have seriously concluded that most of those in government have no idea what's out there.

What's needed is a good cleaning. Just start going through everything and discarding everything which is repetitive, unnecessary...strip it all right down to the bare bones minimum and return it to the effective, simple, uncomplicated state.

Maybe then we'd get something done and save political hopefuls like Ms. Brewer the utter embarassment of making assinine statements on the need for guest worker programs.
