Brewer, Mercer Draw criticism from TV News



ADC has tried to decipher and understand the logic behind such comments; however a conclusion was made that Mercer does not use any logic when she moves her lips to speak. Similar findings have been made about other politicians who engage in such rhetoric. The illogical comments and statements are rooted in xenophobia and have no place in politics or our national discourse.

The use of such language once again exemplifies the bigotry and racism rampant within the Republican party, and politics as a whole. The comments are in line with similar remarks made by other politicians, such as Rep. Joe Walsh of Illinois (R). The continued use of such language has led to an increase in hate crimes and violent attacks on Arab, Muslim, Sikh and South Asian communities.

Arizonans long ago realized, along with the rest of the country, that the highest-ranking members of the state’s GOP can be painted with the same hateful brush. That would be the one labeled Bizarre-O.
