Gee sure seems like a "taxation without representation" situation for those constituents in Arizona. They're under the thumb of the federal government without any sort of representation in said government. For a group that loves to preach about the founding fathers, who even created their own "Tea Party" not long ago, they sure do love to act like the red coats.
