Larry Arnn, president of Hillsdale College, discusses the Declaration of Independence, the founders, Woodrow Wilson, and the founders of modern liberalism and how they gave more power to government.
Some extremists are targeting my favorite Arizona legislator, Senate President Russell Pearce, because he sponsored Arizona’s illegal immigration bill SB 1070. Deep pockets on the left are funding a recall effort against him. A more liberal candidate, Jerry Lewis, has been found to run against Pearce in the recall election. A third candidate, Olivia Cortes, has also turned in enough signatures to qualify for the ballot. The recall effort is not really surprising, considering Pearce has become one of the leading mainstream figures in the country opposing illegal immigration. The left sees him as a real threat because he is also personable and well-liked. Even some of his colleagues on the far left like him, such as Rep. Kyrsten Sinema, who is so liberal she once received the Vladimir I. Lenin award from the Arizona Federation of Taxpayers.
The recall signatures were collected by a shadowy organization calling itself “Citizens for a Better Arizona. ” Its website “About Us” page does not include a single real name, only a vague description. The recall organizer is Randy Parraz, a labor organizer who ran the Arizona AFL-CIO a few years ago and who also worked for the national AFL-CIO for eight years. According to the Huffington Post, “In the fall of 2007, Randy returned to Arizona and began work in the housing industry as a political organizer for the Laborers’ International Union of North America. ” Parraz  has also worked as a community organizer with Dallas Area Interfaith, an affiliate of the Industrial Areas Foundation (IAF) founded by none other than Saul Alinsky. Parraz started the Student Institute for Social Change, a left wing organization. He ran as a Democrat against Senator John McCain in 2010 and finished last in the race. He co-founded the innocuous sounding “Maricopa Citizens for Safety and Accountability,” which appears to exist solely to bash Sheriff Joe Arpaio. Parraz was arrested in 2008 for disorderly conduct and criminal trespassing due to his conduct protesting Sheriff Arpaio. Afterwards, he turned around and sued the county for $500,000. He cites the Marxist book “Pedagogy of the Oppressed” as one of his favorite books.
Bolton had talked about a presidential bid for months, but had shown few signs of starting one. He made just one trip to an early primary state this year and amassed no donor base or staff for a potential presidential campaign.
Still, he ratcheted up his criticism of the GOP field in July, when he launched a group to push foreign policy and national security issues into the spotlight.
The fiery former ambassador said frequently that the current crop of GOP candidates lacked serious foreign policy experience. He often talked about filling that role himself.
Ultimately, Bolton told Fox — the network where he is a paid contributor, in addition to his job as a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute — he decided against a run because he did not think he could mount a successful campaign.

Buffalo Chip Saloon and Steakhouse, 6811 E. Cave Creek Road [MAP]
5 PM – 9 PM
If you support conservative patriots isn’t Senate President Russell Pearce number one on your list? We have joined Larry Wendt, owner of the Buffalo Chip Saloon and Steakhouse in sponsoring a fund raiser for Russell Pearce.
Pearce, as you know, is facing a recall election, unless his court challenge wins, with early voting beginning on Oct. 13 and the election on Nov. 8. As author of the famous SB 1070 law he has gained nationwide acclaim and many states have followed his courageous lead.
In a meeting last week with Pearce, his son Sean and Larry Wendt early details were decided with lots more to come.
Tickets are $25 and will pay for a barbeque dinner with music
So far, MCSO Sheriff Joe Arpaio has agreed to be there for the entire event and he and Pearce will speak and be available for discussions. We invite the public and will inform Tea Party members. Watch for new information about who you may meet at the event. We are seeking luminaries, Republican leaders and will report on others you may want to meet.
