1. Typical.
Our legislature is naught but a gaggle of whores for enormous business interests. The floundering citizenry be damned.

2. Bill is dead...
From the Energy Collective:
http://theenergycollective.com/TheEnergyCollective/59854


"After a firestorm of criticism over HB 2701, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer issued a two-sentence statement late Thursday afternoon praising Representative Debbie Lesko for her “wise and thoughtful actions today to withdraw HB 2701…”
Grave Consequences

We had to take the Governor’s word that the bill had been withdrawn, because Lesko had been muzzled. Reporters calling her office about HB2701 were referred to a Republican party spokesman. Probably, someone in the state GOP hierarchy had placed Lesko before her open political grave and asked if she might consider withdrawing the bill. Lesko, we’re told, did the “wise and thoughtful” thing — i.e., she didn’t jump into her grave."
