Steve Pierce to Replace Booted Senator Russell Pearce as State Senate President *WITH UPDATE*

• Thanks for this post. I was worried that there were a lot of republican members who stood behind Pearce. Now that I know that there were just a few, Sheriff Joe and the Governor, I now have hope that Arizona government will stop acting like a badly scripted soap opera... although Pierce does kind of remind me of J.R. Ewing.

• Let's hope and pray that Pierce goes after the illegal invaders in Arizona even harder than Pearce did!

• Russell Pearce needs to run for Kyl's seat.  He needs to take his leadership to the Federal level.  Looks like the Mormons and LaRaza had it in for our beloved senator.  

• I used to have respect for the people of Arizona. After what happened to Pearce now I think they are spineless sheep who I hope have a happy "Latino time" paying for all the illegitimate anchor babies, welfare, and education for all your foreign nationals. The real heros are Pearce, Sheriff Joe, The Governor, and the few republican members who stood behind them. When they need backup, the rest of the flock turns to mush. These people are afraid of their own shadow. As for Lewis, I suspect Arizona to pass a law allowing  "Homo's" to become boy scout leaders. Nice goin' Arizona.

• State Senate President Steve Pierce is an outstanding law and order Conservative in the same mold as Russell Pearce and anti-Invasion Conservatives should welcome him with open arms.

• Why did Pearce get booted out? Ignorant voters, that's why.

• Arizona is the envy of the nation for Americans who believe in the rule of law.

• Hey take it off line dude. We don't to hear about yourgays fantasies of Herm's flexing butt hole or your unprovocted insults. Besides, no one here ever really believed you are a veteran of anything Jameson.

•  "He did a wonderful job. He did not deserve what happened to him." If Pearce did such a wonderful job, why, then, was he recalled, then booted out on his sorry ass on Tuesday? Pearce absolutely did deserve what happened to him. When you ignore the will of the voters and pursue your own agenda, you get booted out.

• ...did they pick him just so people wouldn't get confused? What is up with this state?  Apparently we can't have a governor whose name doesn't have "Jan" in it somewhere, either.

• doesnt Fox have a blog for you teabaggers?

• Well said.

• Congratulations to Steve Pierce, the new president of the state Senate.  I wish you all the best and hope you do a good job serving all the people of Arizona. And congratulations to Senator-elect Jerry Lewis. It takes courage to stand against your enemies. It takes even more to stand against your friends. You are a profile in courage. All the best to you. I think everyone should give these people a chance to do their jobs well.  We want to hold them accountable, but at least let's have a honeymoon for a week or two.

• Now why would you be thinking of me when you are sitting taking a shit with your asshole spread open?  were you fantasising that it was me spreading open for you, you sorry piece of shit, I already told you, I DO NOT FUCK MEN, And keep your fantasies to yourself.  Punk.

• Well Gerry, we still have the "Recall Pearce" signs, is just a matter of changing a couple of letters on the last name and start collecting signatures again, Pierce wants to follow rus-SELL's lead, fine, he can follow the idiot right to the unemployment line.  I got dibs on the hat should he leave it behind when he too gets the voter assisted boot.

• "We're going to continue the good things that Russell [Pearce] started," Pierce tells the paper. "He did a wonderful job. He did not deserve what happened to him." Translated:  "The voters were wrong."

• In honor of LD18, which is far worse off than before the recall, I took another celebratory shit. It felt really good. Whilst I shat, I thought fondly of that filthy faggot the phony veteran of glory holes. And I shat some more. Oh, the pleasure of knowing the ignorant liberals were not only foiled, but indeed fucked in the literal ass. Ha ha, hoo hoo, oh ha hee heee haa aaahhaaaaaa haaaaaa haaaaaaaqaaaaa!!! Oh the fun.

• Ha ha h a ho ha huk hok...Ooooooh my side is hurting. Poor liberals... awwwww... So this is the truth. Mormons gave up power in LD18. That district will be punished. Lewis is a freshman with an office the size of a closet under the stairs. He will vote party line or he will be destroyed.

• You mean Boobie...

• Out with the old in with the new. The more things change the more they stay the same.

• Moron Boobie

• I hear another recall knocking...

• They just picked him because it would be too damn hard to teach Jan to pronounce a new name.

• I agree. The only thing that can save Arizona is electing Raul, "the economic boycotter terrorist of Arizona," Grijalva. Just put a cowboy hat on the old boy and all will be well.

• I see the king of cut & paste is back

• tl;dr. Shut up.

• We can only hope.

• THINK WHAT MANDATORY E-VERIFY WILL DO FOR YOUR STATE.   March to 100 Cosponsors of Chairman Smith's Legal Workforce Act! Keep up the bombardment. IT’S WORKING!  Contact the ‘Ways and Means Committee led by Majority Speak John Boehner (R-OH) must adopt the Mandatory E-Verify Bill (H.R. 2885.) and should be under interminable  shrapnel  of challenging voters, as never before. Reps. Chip Cravaack (R-Minn.), Tim Johnson (R-Ill.), Reps. Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.V.) and Joe Walsh (R-Ill.), Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) John Sullivan (R-Okla.) and as of yesterday Rep. Ralph Hall (R-Texas) is now co-sponsoring House Judiciary Chairman Lamar Smith's Legal Workforce Act (H.R.2885.) New members are swiftly joining this epic bill. But don’t expect Liberals or career Democrats to attach themselves to this law. Eventually it will be the fresh faces of the TEA PARTY leadership that will bring success.   Smith's Legal Workforce Act (H.R.2885) would require 100% of companies—large and small-- to use E-Verify for all new hires within 2 years. This bill would also require all federal, state, and local agencies as well as federal and state contractors/ sub-contractors and critical infrastructure sites to use E-Verify within 6 months. Require federal, state, and local agencies to run its entire workforce through E-VerifyAllow private business to check all current employees through E-VerifyIncrease employer penalties and fines for knowingly hiring illegal alien workersRequire the Social Security Administration to send no-match letters to employers if a current employee's name and social security number don't match in their systemRequire the Social Security Administration to notify owners of a Social Security number if their number is used multiple times.   Time is the essence when 16 foreign governments are trying to imposing their influence on the Obama administration and our courts. This will not be allowed under a TEA PARTY CONGRESS. ONE THING IS ABSOLUTELY SURE; THERE WILL NOT BE ANY AMNESTY UNDER A OVERIDING TEA PARTY CONGRESS.   What would the Legal Workforce Act do for your state? FIND OUT—by investigating facts at the NumbersUSA website. This pro-sovereignty organization that is passing 1 million memberships and counting has free faxing to Washington.  YOU HAVE A CHOICE AS A VOTER OR LEGAL IMMIGRANT TO BREAK THE SCOURGE OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION—THE CHAIN MIGRATION, THE INSTANT BABY CITIZENSHIP, SANCTUARY CITIES AND STATES, AS WITH CALIFORNIA AND NEVADA AND AMNESTY DREAM ACTS. ALL CONSUME OVER A HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR. THIS MONEY SHOULD NOT BE SPENT ON CRIMINAL FUGITIVES BUT ON OUR OWN PEOPLE LIVING IN POVERTY?   The Legal Workforce Act could open up jobs currently held by illegal aliens. GET ON THESE LAWMAKERS CASES IMMEDIATELY—Call this number at the Washington Switchboard 202-224-3121.   Stop the assault on our nation for Democrats to grab votes, as they intentionally remain deaf, dumb and blind to illegal aliens voting or even aiding them. ACORN is a good example, of fraudulent registrations, absentee ballot applications and the ‘Motor Voter’ forms. Each of us should wonder how many illegal aliens breached the Arizona’s voting code, to recall state senator Russell pierce. With a very large percentage of foreign nationals settled in that border state, it would be easy to compromise the voting restrictions?  Stop Republicans selling our country to the special interest lobbyists on ‘K’ Street for campaign contributions and lucrative perks.   Smith's Legal Workforce Act (H.R.2885), in order to get it to the House floor for a vote it needs more cosponsors. Chairman Smith's bill isn't being viewed at all that urgent; IT IS EXTREMELY URGENT but it's behind a long list of other bills that will fill up this year's calendar for floor action.

• The Republi-Cons are giving the electorate the finger with this pick. This Pierce is no better than the last Pearce. Pierce will just continue the corrupt policies of his predecessor.I suspect that the reason the wing nuts in the legislature picked Pierce was because he is in a safe district for the Republi-CONS & opposition will be hard to come by. Expect the bullshit to continue at the capitol.Nothing short of a complete purging of the Tea Bagger backed Republi-CONS will ever get our state back on the right track. Let's see what their legislative priorities will be once in session. Expect more crackpot bills.

• The name similarity is kinda funny but probably not done on purpose.  What is interesting is how the republicans avoided Biggs, with his clear-cut ties to EX-politician Russell Pearce... maybe, just maybe even the republican majority was secretly tired of the damage EX-senator Pearce was causing to be heaped upon them.  Maybe this is a sign that the legislature will make a turn for the better and look to Arizona's betterment rather than the national embarrassment EX-legistlator Pearce was bent on causing.
