Anyway, I arrived just a little before the starting time (3:00), after being held up by the motorcycle procession at about three separate intersections. I figured they were there for the rally, so I didn't begrudge them the delay. I got to hear a few speeches, including one by Tom Tancredo that was absolute dynamite! He joked about how since Phoenix was apparently the kidnapping capital of the country that the "real" John McCain had probably been kidnapped seeing as how he conveniently changed his stance on illegal immigration. He also bashed Barack Obama and called him dangerous, which delighted me. And every time a speaker mentioned the name of Janet Napolitano there was a chorus of loud boos. I managed to find a few familiar faces, including Lupe Moreno, who was also one of the speakers, Robin Hvidston, and Jeremy and Heather (AKA: GSB and Jalira). I chatted briefly with all of the above. Jeremy and Heather said they'd about had it with California and are now living in Arizona. I also found Chelene and talked with her for a while about old times and things. In case any of you are wondering, neither of us told any tales out of school. There was one disturbing bit of information I picked up, that is, if it's true. I stopped to talk with a fellow who was supporting a candidate for governor of Arizona who happens to be named Dean Martin. I asked the guy what he had against Governor Brewer, and he said that the governor was actually late to the party with SB1070 and had been a professional politician much like John McCain when it came to the illegal immigration issue until just recently. He said he was supporting Martin because he was a true conservative, as opposed to Brewer, who had been more or less of a party hack. Oh, well.
