Arizona Senator Kyl Confirms His State is on the Mexico Border
 Follow-up from earlier storyMILWAUKEE - Arizona Senator Jon Kyl has confirmed, Arizona is, in fact, on the border with Mexico. Knowing this is a requirement for graduation from 4th grade in many of the 57 states. Kyl sent Milwaukee County Supervisor Peggy West a letter in which he says, "You will be interested to learn that Arizona does indeed share a border with Mexico. I have enclosed a map for your convenience." An official Arizona map though, probably fabricated by Republicans and other Eurocentric white guys. Kyl goes on to urge West to, "actually read the Arizona law before forming an opinion about it." Assumptions, assumptions. Should have added, "or have some lackey read it to you." West appeared confused about Arizona's location during debate about a measure that would have had the county boycott the state over its controversial new immigration law. She said, "If this was Texas, which is a state that is directly on the border with Mexico, and they were calling for a measure like this saying that they had a major issue with undocumented people flooding their borders, I would have to look twice at this. But this is a state that is a ways removed from the border." Well, Texas is where the astronauts who went to Mars lived, so naturally they would know more about this alien stuff. West did continue to talk about troops on Arizona's border. She later explained that she meant to say Texas had a longer border. "Had Texas come out with the legislation, having the largest border, I think that I would be more receptive to the fact that there was a problem. But having it be Arizona, having it be the second largest boarder (sic) and knowing there are troops on the border in Arizona, it didn't seem to me that this legislation was particularly necessary at this moment in time," West told Newsradio 620 WTMJ. She also assured us that she is knowledgeable about geography, having been to every state but Toronto and Japan. The county sent the measure back to a committee.
