E. J. Montini: Thy name is hypocrite
Leftist columnist E. J. Montini, of the admittedly dying Periódico de la República de Arizona (Arizona Republic) was on a bellyaching toot with his recent column on the so-called medical marijuana implementation, writing Montgomery, Horne simply hate this law. Attempting to denigrate them, wizard Montini foolishly refers to both Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne and Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery as lawyers AND politicians.
His beef?
He writes “Horne issued a non-binding opinion saying that federal law supersedes Arizona’s medical marijuana law and that allowing marijuana dispensaries to move forward could get people arrested. Not by federal authorities, who have expressed no interest in prosecuting medical marijuana cases, but by Montgomery, who publicly proclaimed that he is prepared to consider prosecuting cases the feds aren’t interested in.”
Rather than Montini’s biased blather, the need for actual facts are in order.
It was actually thirteen of Arizona’s fifteen county attorneys who sought the opinion from Attorney General Horne.
Let’s play this out.
Why should either Horne or Montgomery enforce state law in this particular case, but not in the case of SB1070 or the 2004 Proposition 200, a voter ID law – also passed by a vote of Arizona citizens?
This past April, a 12-member panel of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals concluded in a ruling that no evidence was offered to show that requiring proof of citizenship in order to register to vote — that 2004 law passed by a whopping 55.6 percent of the people — gave Hispanics fewer voting opportunities. The court found, however, that the federal National Voter Registration Act trumps another section of the Arizona law that requires people to prove their citizenship in order to vote.
Montini, either arrogantly or ignorantly, picks and chooses which Arizona laws appeal to him while disregarding the laws that appeal to the great majority of Arizonans. He favored overturning SB 1070, although 70% of Arizona voters voiced support for the measure, according to this Rasmussen Reports survey.
