Why is it that whenever a Republican is somehow thwarted by some law, the right-wing media machine comes out and claims how unjust it is. Just like Tom DeLay is the victim of a "over zealous" prosecutor seeking to enforce the law, the E.V. Tribune believes it is okay for temporary Scottsdale "lawmaker" David Burnell Smith to ignore the Clean Elections law and ignore the very contract he signed saying he would abide by rules of the Arizona Clean Elections Act.
Hmm, a "lawmaker" ignoring an inconvenient law passed by Arizona's voters? How quaint.
It's okay to ignore a contract with the Arizona voters? How honorable.
A violation of his constitutional rights, they say. Really? Which Article in the Constitution states that someone has the right to win an election by breaking the law? Where does it state in the Constitution that "lawmakers" are immune from being bound by legal contracts? Can someone please state the Article for me?
Smith should do the right thing and give up his seat. If he doesn't, anyone and anything that supports his fraudulent claim on office needs to be held up for what they really are: hypocrites.
