http://www.securetheborder.org/Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer is using a frog puppet in a campaign video to hammer Obama administration officials for failing to read her state's recently passed immigration law, even as they criticized the measure.
In the video, which is paid for by Brewer's re-election campaign, a green frog leads a sing-along about the importance of reading, transposed with video of congressional testimony by Attorney General Eric Holder and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano. "Reading is really super swell," sings the frog. "Reading helps you know what you're talking about."
During recent appearances on Capitol Hill, both Holder and Napolitano, who have spoken out against the law, allowed that they had not read it.
Brewer is up for election in 2010 and had been trailing her likely Democratic rival, Terry Goddard, by as many as nine points in statewide polls before she signed the immigration law. A recent Rasmussen poll showed Brewer leading Goddard by 13 points.
Brewer posted the video on her Facebook page and at
www.SecureTheBorder.org, where visitors are asked to sign a petition that reads, "I demand our border be secure and oppose any boycott of Arizona." More than 83,000 people have signed the petition.
