I guess as a dem she is required to be all three
 Governor vetoes bill to aid her in sending troops to the border www.kpho.com/Global/story.asp?S=4611682&nav=23Ku PHOENIX Governor Janet Napolitano vetoed a proposal today that provided 10 (m) million dollars for HER plan to send National Guard troops to the Arizona-Mexico border to help federal authorities confront illegal immigration. Her rejection of the bill came a day after the governor signed an order that expanded the National Guard's presence at the porous border yet held off on increasing the number of troops there until funding is set aside. Napolitano objected to the bill's requirement that she send troops to the border. In a letter to lawmakers, Napolitano says the mandate was an unconstitutional infringement of her powers to command the National Guard. The National Guard has assisted in anti-drug and other law enforcement efforts at the Arizona border since 1988. The governor wants to add more troops at the border to perform support duties in an effort to give federal agents more time to catch people crossing illegally into Arizona, the nation's busiest illegal entry point. |

Not necessarily, it is a tactic in house politics to attatch your legislation to "Agend legislation". Translation attach something they oppose strongly enough and they will tank thier own bill. Look at what is in and attached to the bill, it will probably be a Conservative ideal. |

Agreed. The old 10% poison bill. Would you drink from a glass of 90% pure water and 10% poison..

Arizona congressman Wednesday night predicted it. Said her bill was empty rhetoric- she had no intention to do anything. Sending NG to the border was a joke- they would not be used to actively police the border. He had called the NG and they confirmed their mission had not changed.

Because she wants votes for her re-election. In reality she has no intention of ever doing anything, she has fought every single fence jumper bill, butchered Prop 200, and anything she has said to the contrary has just been lip flapping. |

Ive been out there in AZ for the last week, the article I read in this mornings paper basicly said that she is the CINC of the NG, and will send as many troops as she wants to the border. The representatives were attempting to limit the number of troops and the ammount of money to be spent and she was not willing to have her hands tied.
Understand that Im not from here, just TDY this last week, so my overall understanding of the issue might not be complete. |

The_Macallan : do you really think she will be re-elected ? , I heard that the NG was just a re-election ploy , and the guard is just "windowdressing" -i.e. they will not be used effectively ,---- are Arizona voters gonna fall for this one ? |

Sad to say no conservative will run much less win against her. Too many Californistan    and Mexifornia  immigrants have moved in lately to consider this a "conservative" state anymore. Texas will be next to fall.
Who's gonna beat her?

Most of the 50 Governors just bend over for ANY FedGov that comes their way! If I were Governor of Arizona......  .........I'd kick the FEDS OUT!.......and take over the border!!!All the $ it took to guard the border I'd hold back from the FEDS!!! It's the "united" STATES!.......Remember!......not the Federal Union of Subservient States! Besides........the Chicks can't make the tough decisions anyway! |

She is a Kerry Democrat. She has now been on both sides of the issue.
