They're not all in Phoenix

White supremacists love Arizona. Just about everybody has heard of the high profile, armed-to-the-teeth, neo-Nazi J.T. Ready, and there are plenty more in the Phoenix area that think like him.

But, sadly, Tucson also has its share of racist screwballs. And one of them is again running against Congressman Raul Grijalva. His name is Joseph Sweeney.

Good old Joe tells people he wants to protect them from a Mexican invasion. In fact he recently said that the number of "illegals" ready to invade could be 200 million. He added: "That's just overwhelming us with our Caucasian roots in our society," calling America a "Caucasian-oriented civilization."

Sweeney is such an embarrassment here in Baja Arizona that an independent group of conservatives is running ads against him.
