So from now forward I will pick a state each day and show you the events.
And if I can I will get the political points across that show just how stone each party is, how deep it is enbedded in our society. But I only have 20 minutes on each post. So you will have to look up some of the things you like yourselfs. I'm focused upon one thing exposing both political parties. But will take stabs here and there at each state if given a chance.

Its not about Kansas any longer.

OK now Alaska... Politics... The Gov. sister was married to a state trooper but does the gov. want this trooper fired? And how she went about it.

Public Safety already headed in 'new direction,' some say: For the story.. Public Safety already headed in 'new direction,' some say: Top Stories | adn.com

On Saturday, in the wake of the storm over her firing of Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan, Gov. Sarah Palin released several details of a future plan, saying it was the fresh direction she wanted to take the department. The plan includes efforts to hire more Alaska State Troopers and fight alcohol and drugs in Bush Alaska.

The plan was released after legislators, the public and the media called on Palin to explain why she fired Monegan and replaced him with Kenai police chief Chuck Kopp on July 11.

But while Monegan and current troopers employees say many of the plan's highlights are old ideas already being implemented, and that some have been around for multiple administrations, Palin says the ideas need new leadership because she wasn't seeing results from Monegan

"I thought we were on the right track," Monegan said. "I didn't know there were issues."

Palin, though, disputes that. She says she discussed her desires with Monegan multiple times. "I expressed that we wanted results," she said late Monday. "When we are halfway through a term, we've got to make sure the right people are in the right place."

Under Monegan, the department had written a long-range strategic plan that called for annual operating and budgeting plans, a long-range staffing plan, and a recruitment and retention plan, among other reports.

And for the first time since 1999, the department wrote an annual report that was sent to the governor's office last month, Monegan said.

"The boss didn't like it initially, I can tell you that," Monegan said. "I did the cover letter, and the cover letter said, 'Boss, in line with your open and transparent policy, this report contains thorns as well as the rose. It's our shortcomings in areas that are challenged, that we are focusing on. But we want to be upfront with people about it.' And the response was, 'Oh, it makes me look bad.' "

The report has not been signed off on by the governor, and therefore, not released.

Palin, though, said she had several questions about it which Monegan never answered.

"The fact that Mr. Monegan prepared a detailed draft written report of the troopers' activities in 2007 does not change the bottom line or lack of results," she said.

Among the ideas the governor's office released on Saturday was focusing recruiting efforts on National Guard troops and other military members. Recruiters, though, say that has been a longtime strategy of the department.

An idea to first fill the jobs for which troopers are often called to sub in for, such as court service officers, is not a new one either, said Col. Audie Holloway in a phone interview on Monday. He had approached Monegan about a focused plan on it just last month, he said.

And an idea to study the issues of alcohol and drug abuse and crime, particularly in rural Alaska, was already in the works, said Capt. Keith Mallard, who heads the troopers Alaska Bureau of Alcohol and Drug Enforcement. Two years ago, the department commissioned a study on that from the Institute of Social and Economic Research at the University of Alaska Anchorage.

On Monday, Sharon Leighow, spokeswoman for the governor, said the new direction wasn't meant to drastically change the department. "We are not reinventing the wheel. This is not new rhetoric. What is different is the new activity and the new approach to solve existing problems."

Recruitment and alcohol and drugs continue to be problems, the governor said. There are still more than 50 unfilled trooper positions. That number has not changed since she became governor. "We need to have more than plans, not just talk," she said.

Monegan said he and Palin met one-on-one four times in the 17 months he served to discuss what was happening in the department. "She's a busy lady," he said. "If you were to talk to the other commissioners, all of us don't have enough face time with the boss and understandably so, she's so zeroed in on (the gas pipeline). And, her popularity - she is always in demand."

Palin vigorously disputed that. "Walt and I spent much more time together discussing the future and direction of public safety, and my desire for immediate action," she wrote in an e-mail.

"We also talked a heck of a lot about societal ills in rural Alaska," she said late Monday.

She said in addition to regular cabinet meetings, there were dozens of discussions at events throughout the state, time spent together traveling to the Bush, and regular phone calls.

"While I have been busy with AGIA, I pay attention and take care of the state's business on all other fronts as well, and will continue to do so."

Palin has been accused by political rival and administration critic Andrew Halcro of unfairly firing Monegan because he would not fire her ex-brother-in-law, a Palmer-based trooper.

Monegan last week said that he felt pressure from the Palin family and multiple members of the Palin administration to fire Trooper Mike Wooten. Monegan said pressure came from Palin chief of staff Mike Tibbles, Department of Administration Commissioner Annette Kreitzer and director of boards and commissions Frank Bailey.

On Monday, he said there were others as well, but he would not say who.

The governor denies any wrongdoing, and says she welcomes any questions on the matter. She and her husband, Todd, had complained about the trooper in 2005 but did not try to get him fired since she became governor in late 2006.

Tibbles is not commenting. Leighow said Bailey never had such a conversation with Monegan. And Kreitzer could not recall.

"I would like to think people would stand up and remember what was discussed," Monegan said during a KUDO radio interview Monday. "I can only say it happened."

Monegan has said he doesn't think Wooten was the only reason he was fired but wonders if it was part of the reason.

Monegan last week said his response to them at the time was to back off.

"I kept trying to explain to them why they shouldn't be talking to me about it. ... All personnel actions, if there is ever a lawsuit and I am subpoenaed, I will, and every one should, tell the truth about what was said. ... I cautioned everybody that those conversations are all discoverable. ... That was my way of trying to back them off. Shorten the conversations."

Legislators are calling for a formal inquiry.

On the KUDO show, Monegan said: "Am I accusing the governor of anything? ... No. I think the biggest thing that keeps me up at night is why."

House set to vote on TransCanada deal
AGIA: Palin-backed plan would next go to the state Senate.

JUNEAU -- The Alaska House of Representatives is expected to vote today on whether to award a Canadian company an exclusive state license and $500 million to pursue a natural gas pipeline.


The vote will cap months of legislative hearings and work by Gov. Sarah Palin toward designating a preferred company for a megaproject to link the North Slope gas fields to consumers in the Lower 48.

If the House approves the license -- and legislative leaders see ample votes to pass it -- the legislation moves next to the Senate, which has until midnight Aug. 2 to vote yes or no under terms of the Alaska Gasline Inducement Act.

House leaders on Monday seemed to stick to their plan of voting on the TransCanada license, despite the controversy that's engulfed Palin over her recent firing of former Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan.

House OKs rescue for homeowners, Freddie, Fannie: Complete story. East Valley Tribune | Daily Arizona News for Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Tempe, Scottsdale

How they voted: House roll call on housing bill
House OKs rescue for homeowners, Freddie, Fannie


WASHINGTON (AP) -- Rescue legislation sailed through the House Wednesday aimed at helping 400,000 strapped homeowners avoid foreclosure and to prevent troubled mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac from collapsing.

The 272-152 vote reflected a congressional push to send election-year help to struggling borrowers and to reassure jittery financial markets about the health of two pillars of the mortgage market.

Hours before the vote, President Bush dropped his opposition to the measure, which is now on track to pass the Senate and become law within days.

The White House swallowed its distaste for $3.9 billion in grants the bill would provide for devastated neighborhoods. The Bush administration gains the power to throw a lifeline to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac as part of the measure that also is designed to rein in the government-sponsored mortgage firms.

The administration and lawmakers in both parties teamed to negotiate the measure, which accomplishes several Democratic priorities, including federal help for homeowners, a new permanent affordable housing fund financed by Fannie and Freddie and the $3.9 billion for hard-hit neighborhoods. The grants are for buying and fixing up foreclosed properties.

"It is the product of a very significant set of compromises," said Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., the Financial Services Committee chairman. "We are dealing with the consequences of bad decisions and inaction and malfeasance from years before. Obviously, it requires a joint effort. "

In a statement on the bill, the White House said parts of it "are too important to the stability of our nation's housing market, financial system and the broader economy not to be enacted immediately."

Bush had objected to the neighborhood grants, saying they would help bankers and lenders, not homeowners who are in trouble. Still, Dana Perino, the White House press secretary, said a showdown with Congress over the funds would be ill-timed.

It was a striking split for Bush and many congressional Republicans. GOP leaders denounced the housing legislation as a bailout for irresponsible homeowners and unscrupulous lenders, even as they acknowledged it was probably necessary.

"It's a bill that I wish I could support. It's a bill that the market clearly needs ... but this is not a bill that I can support," said Rep. John A. Boehner, R-Ohio, the minority leader.

Still, 45 Republicans - most from districts ravaged by the housing crisis - voted "yes," reflecting the political potency of the package at a time when economic concerns are foremost in voters' minds.

Ambassador: Al-Qaida leaving Iraq for Afghanistan

By PAMELA HESS
Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Al-Qaida's foreign fighters who have for years bedeviled Iraq are increasingly going to Afghanistan to fight instead, the Iraqi ambassador to the United States said Wednesday.

"We have heard reports recently that many of the foreign fighters that were in Iraq have left, either back to their homeland or going to fight in Afghanistan. Afghanistan is now seeming to be more suitable for al-Qaida fighters," said Ambassador Samir Sumaida'ie.

Al-Qaida had training camps and a headquarters in Afghanistan, under the protection of the then-ruling Taliban, until the U.S. invaded after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. With al-Qaida forced out of Afghanistan, the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003 quickly drew outside fighters there.

Sumaida'ie said al-Qaida is finding it now increasingly difficult to operate in Iraq, beginning with the rebellion of the largely Sunni tribes in Anbar Province in 2006 and 2007. Until then, al-Qaida had ruled by intimidation and violence, establishing physical control and setting up a shadow government in large swaths of Iraqi territory.

"There were large tracts that were run by al-Qaida, administered by al-Qaida - they had ministers, administrators, paid salaries and so on. This no longer exists, so they do not have any territory to control (where it) is safe for them to move in and around Iraq," he said. "In whole areas they ceased to operate as effective terrorist networks."

Sumaida'ie's comments echoed those of the top U.S. military commander in Iraq. Gen. David Petraeus told The Associated Press last week that al-Qaida appears to be reassessing its chances of success in Iraq.

"They're not going to abandon Iraq. They're not going to write it off. None of that," Petraeus said. "But what they certainly may do is start to provide some of those resources that would have come to Iraq to Pakistan, possibly Afghanistan.

"We do think they are considering what should be the main effort," he said.

A U.S. counterterrorism official who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss intelligence reporting said foreign fighters are generally not leaving Iraq for Afghanistan, but new recruits to al-Qaida are being sent to Afghanistan and Pakistan instead of Iraq. The numbers in all countries are small, however. The vast majority of al-Qaida in Iraq are native born, and extremists in Afghanistan and Pakistan are overwhelmingly Pashtun fighters from the region.

At th eentrance way to my bank yesterday I stopped to give this man with a back pack a $10.00 bill hpoing he would eat with it, but being in the same situation many years ago I knew he would buy something to ease his pain. I went to Denney's right after which was just up the street. He wasn't there. So I ate and read the paper. This story hit me right in the brain pan. Next trip to Subway, I will get several of these cards myself. heck for $5.23 one can get a foot long Subway sandwich. So a person can eat twice if they have a dollar. Good idea..

Feed the poor with a Subway gift card: azdailysun.com Letters

Tuesday, July 22, 2008

To the editor:

At the risk of being accused of wearing my heart on my sleeve, I have discovered a solution to a problem that confronts citizens every so often in the parking lots of Flagstaff, especially in the summer: People coming up asking for money to get something to eat. I have been giving money reluctantly because I suspect the person asking for money really wants a drink. So, I now carry three or four Subway gift cards worth $10 each. When someone asks me for money, I tell them I don't have any money but I have a card worth $10 at Subway. I also tell them they can't cash the card in for money but have to use it for food. Sometimes the person frowns but they usually take the card and head out for Subway.

There are about seven Subway restaurants scattered across Flagstaff from east to west. I am usually near one of them when approached, so I just point to the store or tell them where the closest one is.

The gift card is a good solution as it satisfies my need to do the good deed and have a clear conscience at the same time. If $10 is too much, get cards worth $5. That will pay for a 6-inch sandwich but not a drink. It feels good to wear your heart on your sleeve sometimes.

Tucson Region: Marana ex-mayor, wife file for bankruptcy | www.azstarnet.com ®

Marana ex-mayor, wife file for bankruptcy
By Brian J. Pedersen
arizona daily star
Tucson, Arizona | Published: 07.23.2008
advertisementThe cost of defending himself against federal extortion charges came "pretty close" to financially wiping out Bobby Sutton Jr., the former mayor of Marana said Tuesday after he and his wife filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection.
According to their voluntary petition filed in U.S. Bankruptcy Court, the 38-year-old Sutton and wife Monica listed $1.043 million in liabilities against $735,000 in assets.
Included in the Suttons' debt is more than $343,000 owed on their home in Continental Ranch, $200,000 owed on a rental property in Las Vegas and a $190,666 claim associated with a civil lawsuit filed against Bobby Sutton by former employer Dex Media.
Sutton, Marana's mayor from 1999 to 2005, was indicted in April 2005 along with Marana businessman Richard A. Westfall on charges of attempted extortion and conspiracy to commit extortion.
Federal prosecutors said Sutton and Westfall tried to force Waste Management Inc., a Houston-based company that operates a waste-transfer facility in Marana, to hire Westfall and pay him more than $300,000 in exchange for Westfall's not participating in a state investigation into overweight loads leaving the transfer station.
The pair's trial ended in a mistrial in October 2007, and in December 2007 Sutton and Westfall each pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of deprivation of rights under color of law. In other words, Sutton and Westfall prevented Waste Management from freely engaging in interstate commerce.
Sutton declined to say how much he spent on his legal defense, but Sutton's bankruptcy lawyer, Eric Slocum Sparks, said the trial cost "hundreds of thousands in legal fees."
Sparks also said the civil case filed by Dex, which claims Sutton and former business partner Myron Hicks failed to pay $193,600 in Yellow Pages advertising for a garage-door repair company run by Sutton, is nearing a trial date in Pima County Superior Court.
The costs associated with that case became too much for Sutton, who recently became unemployed, Sparks said.
"That's when he decided he couldn't continue to put money out," Sparks said. "This will allow them to get out from under their debt and get a fresh start."
Sutton declined to discuss his recent employment. He said he is looking into some "opportunities."
"I'm just starting over," he said.
Chapter 7 bankruptcy, also known as liquidation, puts the filer's assets in the control of a trustee, who is responsible for selling the assets to help pay off creditors. Chapter 7 also allows a filer to claim certain property, such as a primary residence or a retirement account, as exempt from forfeiture.
Sparks said within the next 30 days a meeting will be set up with Sutton's creditors to begin discussions on settling the couple's debts.
The bankruptcy filing included a statement of intention that lists the Suttons' rental home in Las Vegas and their 2004 Ford F-150 pickup truck as property they will surrender.

Oh my Mexico isn't about to let up.

Tucson Region: Mexico ties flooding in Nogales to U.S. Border Patrol-built wall | www.azstarnet.com ®
Mexico ties flooding in Nogales to U.S. Border Patrol-built wall
By Brady McCombs
Arizona Daily Star
Tucson, Arizona | Published: 07.23.2008

Mexican officials say a concrete barrier constructed by the U.S. Border Patrol in a storm-water tunnel beneath Nogales appears to be on Mexican soil and was the main cause of serious flooding July 12 in Nogales, Sonora.
The flooding caused about $8 million in damage in Nogales, Sonora, the officials say.
The 5-foot-high wall on the floor of the tunnel in front of a gate was put in without notifying the International Boundary and Water Commission, said Sally Spener, spokeswoman for the U.S. section of the commission. The commission requests that any agency doing work on the border that could affect storm drainage send it plans.
"We do have concerns about structures that are placed on the international boundary that could affect storm-water flow," Spener said.
The U.S. side of the commission hasn't yet determined if the barrier caused the flooding, Spener said. It's important to remember the Mexican side of the tunnel was old and in poor condition, she said.
A delegation from the commission, including Commissioner Carlos Marin, was en route to Nogales on Tuesday.
While in Arizona, the delegation will be analyzing whether the structure is in Mexico, what role it played in the flood and what should be done to remedy the situation, she said.
Officials with the Mexican section of the commission say the barrier reduced the flow of storm water through the tunnel by 40 percent, said Jesús Quintanar, a representative in Nogales of the Mexican side of the commission. The barrier was put up in January by the Border Patrol without letting anyone else know, he said.
Border Patrol officials in the Tucson Sector referred questions to headquarters, but a message to that office got no reply.
Although built in the 1930s to channel storm runoff and prevent flooding, the tunnel beneath Nogales has been used for decades by smugglers as an avenue into the United States.
In recent years, the Border Patrol has erected two sets of heavy steel doors, designed to open when the tunnel fills with water, to make it more difficult to cross through the tunnel. There are also cameras and sensors to alert the Border Patrol when somebody is trying to cross.
The monsoon rains usually cause damage to the gates or cameras and sensors, making it easier for illegal immigrants daring enough to enter the tunnel during the rainy season. But on July 12, when heavy rains fell in the border region, the new concrete barrier served as a bottleneck, causing the water to fill up on the Mexican side of the channel and pressure the aging structure, Quintanar said.
"We can affirm, with scientific and technical data, that it obstructed the flow of water," said Quintanar. "It diminished the hydraulic capacity of the wash and caused the upper slabs of the wash to break, along with the pavement on Calle Elias, and the water flooded out."
A concrete aboveground border wall east of the wash further escalated the damage by stopping the water that spilled onto Calle Internacional and Calle Elias from flowing into the United States. The barrier in the wash, however, was the catalyst for the flood, he said.
The $8 million in damage caused by the flood includes damage to 578 homes and 45 cars, Mexican officials say. State officials have declared the damaged part of the city a disaster zone.
Two days after the flooding, U.S. officials found the bodies of two people in the wash. They suspect they were illegal immigrants trying to get through the tunnel the evening of the flooding.
After a meeting last week with the mayors from Nogales, Ariz., and Nogales, Sonora, federal officials gave permission for the cities to remove 1 1/2 feet from the concrete wall, said Octavio Garcia-Von Borstel, mayor of Nogales, Ariz.
The Border Patrol denied the requests to remove the barrier completely but didn't say why, said Marco Antonio Martínez Dabdoub, mayor of Nogales, Sonora.
Using equipment from Nogales, Ariz., and workers from Nogales, Sonora, the cities finished the work over the weekend, Garcia-Von Borstel said.
Removing some of the barrier might help slightly but is not enough to prevent future flooding in heavy rains, said Quintanar and Martínez Dabdoub.
"Until the wall is completely demolished, it will continue to be a concern for both countries," said Quintanar.
Garcia-Von Borstel supports the federal government's decision to limit the reduction of the barrier by 1 1/2 feet because he knows the wall was put in to prevent drug smuggling. Plus, he's doesn't necessarily agree that the barrier was the catalyst for the flooding.
"I think it was a combination of things together that landed us where we land today," said Garcia-Von Borstel.
At the same time, he said he would support the complete removal of the barrier to allow for better water flow. If the structure turns out to be in Mexico, Martínez Dabdoub said Mexico would demolish the barrier.
He said it appears as though the barrier is about three to five feet into Mexico, although he admitted it's difficult to make a definitive assessment because the international boundary runs diagonally in the wash.
Martínez Dabdoub said he's also evaluating a way for Nogales, Sonora, to get some re- imbursement for property damage from the United States since the barrier appears to have caused the flood.
Quintanar said he sent a report to the International Boundary and Water Commission's main office in Mexico in Ciudad Juárez documenting the damage done by the barrier.
"Irregardless of what country you are in, it's an obstruction to the flow of water," said Quintanar. "This is the commission's concern, that they install things without telling the United States section first so they can consult with the neighboring country."
