Kudos to MSNBC's Rachel Maddow for doing the above segment on the ideological underpinnings and supremacist associations of state Senator Russell Pearce, "author" of Arizona's new law codifying racial profiling. I use that word "author" in quotes, because if you've ever talked with Pearce, you know the guy can barely speak English properly himself, much write in complete sentences.
He needed help -- lots of it. And he got it from nativist-extremist attorney Kris Kobach, you know, the guy Sheriff Joe Arpaio's been paying $300 per hour of taxpayers' money to train MCSO goons in immigration law. Kobach works for the legal arm of FAIR, the Federation for American Immigration Reform, a nativist hate group, which is similarly claiming credit for taking the crayons away from Pearce and writing the law for him.
