We Salute Governor Brewer

Gov Brewer stands her ground with Obama

Arizona Governor Jan Brewer stood her ground when thin-skinned narcissist President Barack Obama immediately launched into an attack on her upon being greeted by the governor upon his landing in Arizona.  Mr. Obama apparently put official business aside (a major skill of his--golf, lengthy lavish vacations and fundraisers have been pushing jobs, national security and even submitting a budget to the back burner repeatedly) to confront the governor about some mean words she wrote about him in her book.

Seriously.

The man who runs the country is so thin-skinned that he can't put aside his hurt feelings that a political opponent of his, who runs a state that his justice department is suing, would dare write anything but glowing praise of him.

So surrounded by a media that worships his every failing is Mr. Obama, that a simple criticism renders him unable to do his job.  For crying out loud, the media is so willing to make him look good that they are pulling an ostrich by not reporting the kidnapping of the son of Obama Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood.  Media outlets are pushing coverage of this story to the back burner while labeling his kidnapping as being "barred from leaving Egypt" which in layman's terms is kidnapped, imprisoned, or held against your will.

And just who has kidnapped him?  The Muslim Brotherhood.  The radical Jihadist group that has taken control of Egypt's government to the guffawing of the Obama administration on the wonders of Arab Spring.  In Obama's world, it's better that a old and feeble dictator who was somewhat favorable to the United States would be replaced with young virile radical Jihadists hell-bent on killing infidels a la the Taliban.  So desirous is Mr. Obama and his complicit media to prop up this radical organization and his failed foreign policy approach that they are unwilling to report this story for what it is.  And even while this crisis plays out, Mr. Obama is in essence "negotiating with terrorists" as he pushes Washington to offer more in aid and support to the radical Muslim Brotherhood.

By contrast, Governor Jan Brewer stands firm in upholding her duties to her state and her country.  And in spite of the fact that the president is suing her for doing her job, she still offered a polite invitation to Mr. Obama to sit and discuss the policies that have been helping to turn around Arizona's economy.

And yet, a quick glance over the media reporting of the event would lead one to believe that Governor Brewer was in the wrong instead of a president who throws a temper tantrum while on an official visit to a head of state.  Contrast that with the vicious smears and attacks directed at Sarah Palin during the campaign of 2008.  It's apparently okay to besmirch a woman but not to stand up to an unprovoked verbal attack by a petulant child, so long as he is the socialist leader of the free world and advancing the progressive agenda.

We salute Governor Brewer for eating scorpions for breakfast and returning fire on the incompetent and thin skinned narcissist playing the role of president.
