Chris Matthews asked Trent Franks onto his show to discuss the flap over Brewer’s treatment of the president. Matthews began by asking whether private conversations between politicians weren’t traditionally privileged. Franks obviously didn’t or couldn’t make the connection to Brewer’s tell-all book, wherein she reveals the contents of such a conversation between herself and the prex back in 2010, because he said something like: “I thought I was here to talk about Governor Brewer–what does your question have to do with that?”
Duh.
And then he had the chutzpah, the very balls, to say, at the end of the interview, that “Governor Brewer is universally loved in Arizona.”
It’s not often that one sees a liar lying right in front of one’s face. If Franks bothered even to read the Arizona Republic (or have it read to him if he is not able to handle this on his own), he would know that not even that conservative rag has much love for Brewer.
Where do the rethugs dig up these clueless simpletons? Goddess help Arizona.
I think they’re all that’s left, other than a few nasty puppet masters like Rove. Minions and masterminds.
