	Raul Grijalva is an embarrassment
		Raul Grijalva shows himself to be, at first opportunity, a man with little or no intellect and no shame, who chooses not to represent Arizona and the United States, but the illegal immigrants who are a plague, a threat and a burden to our state as well as our country.
		A fact obviously lost on Grijalva is that he was elected to represent us, translate that to United States and Arizona, not illegal immigrants.
		Grijalva's charge of racism is a smoke screen for the facts that he ignores.

		Grijalva heard how the land was originally the southern part of the tribes' 270,000-acre reservation in western Arizona along the Colorado River.

		Grijalva can now joke that he always thought his first successful bill would be something simpler, ''like reforming the whole public education system.'' But he's proud to have helped return the land.

		Grijalva has taken the principled step of formally lending support to H.R., which would put an end to the practice of "extraordinary rendition."

		Grijalva has taken the affirmative step of cosponsoring H.R., which would provide more information to the public about contacts between lobbyists and politicians, and which would slow down the revolving door of politics in which politicians move into cushy corporate jobs after they retire in exchange for favors.
		Raul Grijalva has cosponsored H.R., which would keep members of the Federal Communication Commission from using their appointed positions to censor cable, satellite or internet programs they consider to be indecent.
