Guess if are not rich - you just die here. I might take my organ donor off my drivers license next time around. Only the rich can get a transplant now?

1. That might be true for some people under concepts of rules applied back.
But I don't think it would be true for all people. That would not make sense.

5. You should realize it is Arizona
Jan Brewer is an idiot and here is another example of how far down this state has gone. I called the Housing Authority here and asked about breaking my lease due to my apt. being flooded (fortunately the management allowed me to break it) and they told me the only way that you can break a lease in this state is if you get called into active military duty. She told me how one person was in the hospital in a coma and was not allowed to break the lease.

2. How horrible. Makes me ashamed that I once lived in Arizona and thought it was a neat place.

3. This is for those on medicaid
but ........ so if you can't afford one or two insurances, you die here. How sad. If you are on medicaid you die.

6. sad thing is Arizona was a pretty decent place when
I moved here in May of 2007 but the last 2 years it has gone down to levels I often have to look around to see if I happen to move back to Mississippi and forgot I had.

7. It doesn't look promising getting Brewer out
It doesn't look promising for a Dem to win here either. This state is corrupt. The repukes talk about Chicago, they need to look west at Az.

8. Just don't have problems in this state of Az
or you are screwed. A lease can't be broken if you are in a coma? WTF?

9. I know...I can't believe the way things have gone here....
Very sad & very scary.

What about the liberal areas like Tucson & Flag....are there enough to offset all the whack job righties??
