I think the Media has been downplaying the fact that Mayor Gordon is being sued for city North projects by the Goldwater Institute. He gave away contracts and promised money to Chicago developers and not to local contractors that wanted (and probably could use the money).

In my opinion, again I feel this is not what a Mayor should be doing to helping the local economy.

This can be verified by doing a Google of city North, lawsuit, Mayor, and Goldwater Institute.

In addition, I looked at the recall issues and there are other items, like having all this money spent on Cinco De Mayor, Cesar Chavez day, and other diverse special interest, then there is no money to pay for our most important holiday - 4th of July, Independence Day.

When the money was finance to celebrate the 4th of July, it had to come from a private donor (Freedom Wireless).

When I go to look at the Mayors site, several times, he mentions to the media that this money is not paid for by taxpayers - - great, then who is funding his money, and what special interests are at stake with regards to 'kick-backs'. In my opinion, this is a conflict of interest with regards to an elected official. Perhaps this is normal in politics. Can anybody answer this for me?

In other areas, there is a plan to provide direct flight straight from the Middle-East(Dubai I believe) straight into Phoenix for creation of more revenue and building of the local economy. Yes, at first this seems great, but then one also has to think of the increased security, risk and vulnerability this puts Phoenix in, especially being so close to the border AND near the largest nuclear facilities - so I don't think that will fly very well with the public, so again, I am not sure what he is thinking.

Finally - There are several hispanics that do support the Sherriff and not all brown people are for Illegals as the mayor so conveniently assumes. That is the reason I am blogging my comments.

When I read the media, I see the sob stories about the Illegal that got caught for a DUI and now his children are not taken care of. Then I read the story about the gentlemen who lent his car to a hispanic who had a suspended drivers licence and a broken tail light - - well excuse me newspapers, if this were a normal U.S. citizen, they would have the same consequences. Someone please explain this to me?

I checked it out. Hmmm...

HSJ, you get it. You said: "so again, I am not sure what he is thinking." I recommend looking elsewhere for that answer, not that he doesn't have a brain, it's just that the space is for rent. No doubt, he has "ideas" about what's best for Phoenix, and I'm sure they'll show up in Mary Wilcox's new TV commercial. However, there's a saying, where your treasure is, there your heart will be too. His treasure?...questionable municipal projects, city funding and resources for the Day Labor center and other illegal alien support despite the fact that Phoenix has had inordinate and chronic budget over-runs every year. And every year, bogus excuses for tax increases and higher city fees so residents can make up the difference.

Mayor Phyllis(cheesecake)Gordon needs to be recalled immeaditly! He is useless and only serving his own agenda, your post is a perfact example of that. Why would he give that contract to someone in Chaicago when there are plenty here in Arizona that could use if not NEED that contract, but my guess is he GAVE IT TO A FRIEND OR MAYBE IT WAS A CAMPAGIN CONTRIBUTER AND HE WAS FULFILLING AN(his agenda)OBLIGATION. He has no spine when it comes to dealing with the illegal's that are over running this state, and refuses to uphold the laws in place to deal with said problem. He is constantly undermining Sheriff Joe(being the ONLY ELECTED OFFICIAL doing his effin. Again he feels that he is "ABOVE THE LAW" hence the recall effort now under way. Mayor Gordon will soon be packing his bags and heading back to Chicago where he belongs.

Why not go after all the lost revenues that Rick Renzi costed you in his John McCain School of Federal Land Swaps? Why not go after the "WHISPER" account full with all your tax encentive revenues that have stipened your "Sanctioned Business" community.

Going after the Mayor for standing up for the basic human rights of all his citizens isn't the answer. Counter suing your own intellect isn't going to put revenues in the coffers of our State. Suing the Mayor for his compassion towards a state that was built off the backs of immigrants, who came here on a path to citizenship but only to be stalled because of the "ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY" at the Southern Border isn't the answer.

Why not dig deeper in your pocket and make a donation to Sherriff Joe. Fill his egoism mein kempf bowl with lots of Abraham Lincoln pennies towards "ABOLOSHING" those pesky brown people.

Be kind and Rewind. Go back to your Hatfield and McCoy ranches and play hide and go sleep with the sheep. Arizona was just fine without Marshall Law Immigration sweeps in my neighborhood.

Leftist aka progressive illegal immigrant lover Mayor Gordon is not standing up his citizens.
Leftist aka progressive illegal immigrant lover Mayor Gordon did not send the police department out to break up the gathering of leftist aka progressive illegal immigrant lovers and illegal immigrants protesting against a old business in Phoenix.
The crime sweeps are only arresting people foolish enough to drive around the cities in vehicles with broken safety equipment.
Leftist aka progressive illegal immigrant lover Mayor Gordon needs to perform his job by the oath he took.

So cagedvoter, what you are saying is that, all illegal aliens in Phoenix are Phil Gordan's CITIZENS and that all the illegal aliens in Phoenix came here on a path to citizenship? I think you are wrong on both counts. Illegals aliens are not citizens and all illegal aliens in Phoenix did not come here on a path to citizenship.

Immigrants do come here on a path to citizenship but illegal aliens do not, a person who wants to be a citizen doesn't start by breaking the law in the new country they want to live in if they want to stay.

From the L. A. Times
1. 40% of all workers in L. A. County ( L. A. County has 10.2 million people)are working for cash and not paying taxes. This is because they are predominantly illegal immigrants working without a green card.
2. 95% of warrants for murder in Los Angeles are for illegal aliens.
3. 75% of people on the most wanted list in Los Angeles are illegal aliens.
4. Over 2/3 of all births in Los Angeles County are to illegal alien Mexicans on Medi-Cal , whose births were paid for by taxpayers.
5. Nearly 35% of all inmates in California detention centers are Mexican nationals here illegally
6. Over 300,000 illegal aliens in Los Angeles County are living in garages.
7. The FBI reports half of all gang members in Los Angeles are most likely illegal aliens from south of the border.
8. Nearly 60% of all occupants of HUD properties are illegal.
9. 21 radio stations in L. A. are Spanish speaking.
10. In L. A. County 5.1 million people speak English, 3.9 million speak Spanish.
(There are 10.2 million people in L. A. County. )

(All 10 of the above are from the Los Angeles Times)
Less than 2% of illegal aliens are picking our crops, but 29% are on welfare. Over 70% of the United States' annual population growth (and over 90% of California, Florida , and New York) results from immigration. 29% of inmates in federal prisons are illegal aliens.
We are a bunch of fools for letting this continue
HOW CAN YOU HELP ?
Send copies of this letter to at least two other people. 100 would be even better.


This is only one State...............

The owner of the LA Times is about nothing more then revenue. I wouldn't believe a word or a statistic that comes from that paper. He is all about the all mighty dollar. If a story needs to be sensationalized then it will be to generate dollars. All those stats you've put up are as reliable as the source they came from.

Too much faith is put in #'s provided by others. Illegal immigration IS a problem, BUT it has been for years.

Now you suddenly find out that our gov. has been screwing up all along - this SHOULD have been a non-issue. For years, they've allowed this to happen!!!

And who is being attacked for our carelessness? It's fairly evident. Don't blame these people for doing what WE have allowed for decades. Take responsibility for your (and my) lack of foresight.

If you want to spend money to combat this problem - SECURE THE BORDERS!! Until then, we're following the American pattern. Throwing money away in a futile attempt that accomplishes nothing.

WE ALL KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM!! But wasting money does nothing to help it.
