Wes
mentions the endorsements by Pearce, Burges and others. Wes, those
endorsements are more accurately referred to as betrayals. And for the
same reasons as stated above and attached below. Riggs is just now
telling us what he would have done if he had gotten out of his fox hole
and advanced toward the sound of the guns. If Riggs had dared to raise
his head from the foxhole he was buried in during the last twelve
years, he would be covered with battle scars. If he had fought hard
enough, he might even have legal problems. But then, he would have to
get those cleared up before he considered running for governor. That is
if Wes Harris had anything to say about it.
Riggs: AWOL from Conservative Battlefront
Since Arriving in AZ in 2001
Self-touting
"veteran" and former California Congressman Frank Riggs' campaign
rhetoric at Monday's forum needs to be measured by his own standards.
Riggs bragged about his years in congress and stated that we must judge a
candidate by what he does not what he says.
Let's examine what Riggs has done since he arrived in Arizona in 2001.
Conservative Battles Waged Riggs Did or Said
Must be US citizen to vote..........................................................AWOL
Must show ID to vote...................................................................AWOL
Must be citizen to collect welfare...............................................AWOL
No social security benefits to illegal aliens................................AWOL
Opposition to special benefits for dreamers...............................AWOL
Opposition to sanctuary city for illegal aliens............................AWOL
Legislation for employer sanctions.............................................AWOL
Battles against Amnesty legislation............................................AWOL
Grass root opposition to Kyl, McCain, Flake...............................AWOL
Attend meetings & rallies to oppose illegal alien invasion.........AWOL
Attend MCRC & State GOP meetings to back candidates...........AWOL
Testimony at State Legislature to oppose illegal aliens.............AWOL
Statement backing Arpaio, Thomas, Pullen VS illegal aliens......AWOL
Opposition to top two from primary advance to general ballot...AWOL
Religious
Freedom Act...Riggs returned from AWOL status to be intimidated by the
Gay Lobby and urge Brewer to veto the religious liberty bill.
A
conservative in these battles created enemies and bears battle scars.
Where are Riggs' scars? Where are his enemies? He has none because the
"veteran" did not run toward the sound of gun fire. He was AWOL. The
"baggage" a conservative fighter carries is actually a medal of honor
for having borne the battle for us. We welcome Mr. Riggs to the front
lines, but he is 12 years late.
The
candidate to carry the conservative flag to the Governor's chair is the
man who has borne the battle for us. That man is Andrew Thomas. To do
otherwise would be a betrayal of principles we hold dear.
