Arizona’s Republican Governor Jan Brewer is missing in action, and reportedly has even “skipped an event to certify election ballots,” according to the AP:
Gov. Jan Brewer has taken a nearly week-long out-of-state work trip that was shrouded in secrecy Monday as she skipped an event to certify election ballots and her spokesman refused to disclose her location.
Brewer spokesman Matthew Benson said in a brief email to The Associated Press that Brewer was unavailable to participate in the general election canvass Monday morning because she was out of the state on official business.
What’s crucial to remember is that Governors are also the Commanders In Chief of their state’s National Guard, and their whereabouts are critical in cases of state of national emergency.
Think what would have happened had New Jersey Governor Chris Christie been MIA during Hurricane Sandy.
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg took a great deal of heat two years ago during a huge snowstorm. Rumor had it he was in the Bahamas.
Talking Points Memo editor in chief Josh Marshall ponders that the “last time a sitting Governor of a state left on an unexplained vacation and staffers refused to disclose where they were or when they’d return, things ended up getting pretty weird,” referring of course to former South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford.

Maybe check some exclusive drug-alcohol rehab centers…..
LOL. You beat me to it. I was going to say she is probably on a meth binge and then went to rehab. "They try to make me go to rehab but I said NO NO NO."
I heard, she's headed to the "Fugly, Ugly, Facial Surgery Center", to change the" Bride of Frankenstein" look she had, to a pleasant Broom Hilda face. I heard her mouth was wired shut!! From there, she's auditioning for "Dancing with CROWS". She's known for her foot work, resembling Fog Horn Leg Horn's Dance Technique.
that must be a really old picture of that ugly skank.
It might be nice if she was missing. She is pretty weird to start with so maybe she will come back "normal".
Drugs could be the reason she has no reason.
Perhaps she is hiking the Old Appalachian Trail!
Or perhaps it is the headless bodies in the desert…
She has to return to Egypt every so often to perform the ritual sacrifices that have kept her mummy animated for these past several thousand years.
