Jan Brewer Admits She Was Wrong About Beheadings

And people think this fear-mongering woman is credible.

"Brewer apparently first referred to beheadings during a June 16 interview with Fox News, talking about "the kidnappings and the extortion and the beheadings and the fact that people can't feel safe in their community" in discussing controversy surrounding the immigration law.

She went further in a June 27 interview on Phoenix television station KPNX when asked about the earlier beheadings claim.

"Oh, our law enforcement agencies have found bodies in the desert, either buried or just lying out there, that have been beheaded," Brewer said."

OOPS! Never happened!

"Yesterday, however, she admitted to the AP, in reference to the alleged beheadings:

"I misspoke, but you know, let me be clear, I am concerned about the border region because it continues to be reported in Mexico that there's a lot of violence going on and we don't want that going into Arizona."

And with that vague comment, she has decided to turn down further debates, in an effort to block her opponent from explaining why she's wrong. She explained:

"All you guys were doing and talking were beheadings, beheadings, beheadings," she said. "That is something that has stuck with you all for so long. And I just felt we needed to move on."

so she just made it up? Yeah, that's pretty ridiculous. I'd double check anything she has to say from now on. How are people to blame for accepting her claims prior to learning about this? From here on out I'd agree that she's got no credibility if she just makes up scary stories.

You've hit on why I don't trust the IPCC
Too many false stories
 
"I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base."
--Hillary Clinton, speech at George Washington University, March 17, 2008.
OOPS...LIES-NEVER HAPPENED

Hillary Clinton has been regaling supporters on the campaign trail with hair-raising tales of a trip she made to Bosnia in March 1996. In her retelling, she was sent to places that her husband, President Clinton, could not go because they were "too dangerous."

OOPS...LIES-NEVER HAPPENED

Joe Biden said he had been to the Green Zone in Baghdad, Iraq seven times and been 'shot at'

OOPS...LIES-NEVER HAPPENED



Yeah...some people make mis-statements and pay for them over and over, year after year....

And them some people just consciously friggin' outright LIE...and the story dies after a day or two....

That ole double standard just can't be beat...

Uh, the Green Zone was attacked when Biden was there. And, he visited Iraq about every two months since he's been the veep. How many times did cheney go over the span of eight years?

The media ran with Hillary's Bosnia story until she admitted her memory was in error. You're being disingenuous if you think she was treated better than Jan Brewer. Righties (and even some lefties) picked her apart with a fine-toothed comb when she was a candidate; she couldn't buy a break.

Brewer's attempt to scare the crap out of Arizonans with the beheading story is typical of what we see from the fringe righty viewpoint. When is your party going to get some sane, moderate voices who don't need that appeal to fear in order to get elected?

Honestly, it's not something I'm invested in. The politicization of some science issues is getting out of hand, IMO.

Unfortunately, the answer is never. It has worked so well.

EXACTLY!

Brewer did not check out the wild stories after a rancher found a partially decomposed head minus the body...

Hillary on the other hand completely manufactures an event...wonder why chris NEVER started a thread over that one????

Ain't that just too, too typical....
Biden, the admitted plagiarist, was NEVER shot at....thats just the facts of the matter......
Hillary is just a plain everyday liar and got caught big time....

Brewer got the story wrong and Cheney has absolutely nothing to do with this at all....
 
And I can even stick up for Brewer, mistakes and all....she was far closer to the truth than Biden or Hillary ever were...
==============

Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer stood by her statement that beheadings happen in the desert -- in Mexico.

Brewer called in to KTAR radio's Bruce St. James program Thursday morning at the station's invitation to address her cold shoulder to questions about the beheadings after a gubernatorial debate in Phoenix on Wednesday night.

"The fact is, there has been beheadings in the border region, in Mexico," she told St. James.

"This is getting blown totally out of proportion," she said.

On several occasions during the debate, Attorney General Terry Goddard, Brewer's Democratic challenger for governor, pressed her to recant statements she made recently about Arizona not being safe, specifically mentioning Brewer's references to beheadings in the desert. There has been no supporting evidence of the beheadings in Arizona.

=============================================

So in essence, Brewer is correct....
Jan Brewer stood by her statement that beheadings happen in the desert

Her mistake was in saying, our law enforcement agencies have found bodies in the desert, either buried or just lying out there, that have been beheaded.

Headless bodies in Mexico are becoming quite common

So "everybody" told lies....oops, misspoke. The question is why did they misspeak and the obvious answer is the Repubs just love scaring people.

When Hillary or Biden said they were shot at did anyone vote for the Democratic party because they were scared someone shot at them 1/2 way around the world?

That's the difference. The Repubs like to use scare tactics in order to get votes.
