Epic Brewer-ing Lies Fail

Arizona GOP Gov. Jan "Papers, please!" Brewer got caught in a rather nasty lie here this week. Taegan Goddard:
Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer (R) told the Arizona Republic that her signing of a tough immigration law has opened her up to what she says were "unanticipated personal attacks."

Said Brewer: "The Nazi comments... they are awful. Knowing that my father died fighting the Nazi regime in Germany, that I lost him when I was 11 because of that... and then to have them call me Hitler's daughter. It hurts. It's ugliness beyond anything I've ever experienced."

One problem: The Arizona Guardian reports Brewer's father worked during the war as a civilian supervisor of a naval munitions depot and died of lung disease in California in 1955.
Oops.  That's a hell of a whopper.  Politicians:  If you're going to play the victim card, make sure your story is straight.  It's possible somebody might check the story out and commit acts of actual journalism.

Folks, anger at the Democrats does not magically mean the Republican Party is more honorable, trustworthy, or competent than they were in 2006 or 2008.  Keep that in mind.

EPIC FAIL.

  1. This bothers you, and the Obama administration offering jobs to people to get them out of primary contests is okay?

    You really are such a damn hack...
