Arizona, the Appalachia of the 21st century

Ouch!
Rogue Columnist Jon Talton has two smackdown posts about the Phoenix area and the local Arizona Repugnant newspaper. One is based on a Wall Street Journal article and the other on the new Web site design of the Arizona Republic and their usual crappy reporting.
Over the years, I have spent far too much time as a "homer" defending this area and the state. It is quickly losing its luster in my eyes. I mean, come one; when your usual retort whenever someone says something bad about Arizona is to point to the weather, you have a problem.
