At least in print it seems she may be favorable as it relates to the 2nd Amendment:

What say the Arizona members here at M4C?

Edited after I found this: http://www.learnaboutguns.com/2008/0...-defense-bill/. She does not seem to be a friend to gun owners.

Though that sounds good. IIRC Janet has vetoed some pro-gun legislation in the last couple of years. Of course, I haven't lived in Arizona long enough to fully know her story.

Mulletano is a lib no doubt about it. She's thrown us an occasional pro gun bone from time to time.

She vetoed the CCW in alcohol serving establishments. But I don't care... I take my gun anyway.

She's not the worst Governor in the world. The thing she did most in her tenure is point the finger at the Federal Government for every problem our state faced. Now she will be the Federal Government. Who will she point the finger at now?

On the upside, Jan Brewer will take her position as Governor, and we'll have a Conservative at the top with a GOP controlled legislature. The local leftist media is crying.

She also sat by idly while Phoenix became a sanctuary city. That alone disqualifies her as the Secretary of Homeland Security as far as I am concerned. How the hell can you put someone in charge of security within our borders when she allowed the largest city in her state to willfully ignore a serious National Security issue.

Sounds like good news for Arizona

Not so much for the rest of us

That sums it up exactly.

She has sat on her hands on border security declaring that it is the Feds issue and it should be paid for and done by the Fed.

She would agree that it needed to secured but did nothing.

Now we will see....she will be the Fed and hold the purse.

The only good that will come out of our Open border gov'ner accepting the job is we get a Republican in. Not good, Not good at all.

Arizona Governor Janet Napolitano to Head Department of Homeland Security - Welcome to Our Problem, America
CNN says Janet Napolitano is Barack Obama's choice to lead the Department of Homeland Security, and my source at Capitol Hill confirms it. The Governor's office neither confirms nor denies the story.

A couple ways to look at this one. First off, it's a tremendous positive for my state of Arizona. Napolitano has helped bankrupt our local government, yet she is somehow the only electable Democrat in the state when it comes to national office. The loss of Napolitano almost guarantees that Arizona will retain its two Republican Senate seats for the near future.

However, Arizona's gain is America's loss. The new person in charge of homeland security has failed miserably to protect her own state from foreign invasion on a massive level. The fact that Obama could select someone who is perhaps America's worst offender when it comes to homeland insecurity says more about his future amnesty plans than any speech and any denial he could ever make.

.

But the kiddie games come to an end with the selection of a Governor who not only refuses to do anything to protect her own state's border, but also fights the efforts of the one man in the state government who actually does something to uphold immigration laws, Sheriff Joe Arpaio, America's Toughest Sheriff.

A nation will soon come to know Janet Napolitano. She had been Arizona's problem, and that was problem enough. Now she is America's problem.

I think im going to throw up now!

Mark,

Thanks for posting that info. I was unaware of what scheme was in place to replace the governor in a situation like this. As much as I hate to see her take over an already inept DHS, this is good news for us.

Mulletano is a lib no doubt about it. She's thrown us an occasional pro gun bone from time to time.

She vetoed the CCW in alcohol serving establishments. But I don't care... I take my gun anyway.

She's not the worst Governor in the world. The thing she did most in her tenure is point the finger at the Federal Government for every problem our state faced. Now she will be the Federal Government. Who will she point the finger at now?
