More fun in Arizona! ‘Headless bodies in the desert’ claim haunts Governor

Arizona’s Governor Jan Brewer is starting to develop a Palinesque quality as the gift which keeps on giving. Earlier this summer she said in a televised interview:

…our law enforcement agencies have found bodies in the desert, either buried or just lying out there, that have been beheaded

This beheaded bodies claim was entirely false. At a televised debate with her opponent, when repeatedly asked to recant on her error, the governor changed the subject.

After the debate, reporters repeatedly asked her to recant but she sort of froze, then changed the subject, then froze again, then thanked everyone for their time. It is an extraordinary example of avoiding the question. Paxo would make mince meat of her.

It makes for an hilarious video particuarly at about 1’50″:

After all this, the Governor belatedly backpedalled on her claims:

That was an error, if I said that,I misspoke, but you know, let me be clear, I am concerned about the border region because it continues to be reported in Mexico that there’s a lot of violence going on and we don’t want that going into Arizona.

Yes, that’s very clear.

"There is a refreshing frankness to the musings of Liberal Burblings which single this blog out. The ability to not mince one's words is highly prized here and, when combined with the ability to profane without insulting the reader's intelligence, is excellent. Whether pondering on the state of the Lib Dems, the country or the world at large, you can rely on Liberal Burblings to tell it like he thinks it is." - www.politics.co.uk
