Yup. Which is why Mittens gets a guaranteed 40% this November.

FYAP won’t let me play the video in Canuckistan, although the ad loads up just fine. I presume it’s a cordial session and Brewer even smiles a bit?

It’s a very clear example of right wing projection. Brewer whines in a book about how she was treated by Obama, then, when they meet again she asks him for another meeting and he mentions, in private, that she lied through her teeth about their last meeting. She then hits every microphone within a 500 mile radius whining that Obama walked away from her WHILE SHE WAS TALKING.
ServanPresidents shouldn’t be allowed to do that.She than says this is proof that he is thin skinned.
Well, the sorry episode is a clear example of thin skinnedness, but, not on the part of Obama.

Here’s PDF of Brewer’s hand-penned letter to Obama.

She signs it “With respect, Jan”
I guess that was enough for one day.

I can’t see the video, but I’m assuming Brewer’s been lying as that’s all she knows how to do…and does it rather badly (and finger-waving doesn’t go along with “felt threatened”). It’s actually a good idea to assume that she’s lying whenever her delusional ramblings make it outside the state. Beheaded bodies in the desert? Of course not. SB 1070 will solve the illegal immigration problem? Of course not, it’ll just line the pockets of her staff/private prison lobbyists (same people).
This sounds like something her BFF Palin would want her to do. Why talk about the airport doing well, or the tech sector doing well in AZ when Brewer can make it all about her, plus throw in a plug for her book. She’s why we can’t have nice things.

@Groucho48: Jan Brewer does NOT have thin skin. Look at those alligator bags!
CaliCat
I think we can all agree that Jan is a mean drunk.

@Elizabelle:
And she couldn’t say these things to his face? why write a letter?
ned
@Elizabelle: Jesus Christ, that handwriting! Was she suffering from withdrawal when she wrote that??
Shalimar
@Elizabelle: As others note, I would be annoyed if I had to suffer through that handwriting while people were waiting for me when she could say it all much quicker.

I don’t know exactly what Brewer was saying, but I’m going to guess it ended with something like…” and your little dog too.”

Not that I should be surprised but AP lied – that not a video of the harpy attacking President Obama. There is a still picture, the one we have all seen & there there is a little tiny video of the Presidential limo with the top of Obamas head in the background. But it did serve two commercials so AP got paid – trolls.

Obama might as well have had a banner reading “Arizona Is In Play for 2012” with him, because that is what his presence is saying. That is what really pisses the slattern off.
The Tragically Flip
Sorry to be an asshole, but I can’t forget that obama made brewer the governor when he appointed the state’s Democratic governor to his cabinet. It is possible she would have won the 2010 election anyway, but doing so was certainly much easier as the incumbent governor and Obama couldn’t have known how wingnutty the 2010 election would be in Jan 2009.
This one really bugs me, there wasn’t even a democratic house in the az leg, obama (and napolitano) handed the republicans a free trifecta.

@Comrade Mary: AP just has a shitty Content Management System. It will work, if you try enough times at roughly 4 am, when sensible people are asleep .

Obama should’ve told her “To go fuck herself.” The right approved of that when Cheney said it to Senator Leahy’s face.

That Weekly Standard piece is impressively full of shit, even by those douchebags’ low standards.
Yes, if only! If only he’d had the balls to topple Gaddafi without putting a single troop in harm’s way! If only he’d had the courage to kill Somali pirates! If only he’d had the guts to take out more than half of Al-Qaeda’s leadership and, oh, I don’t know, cross into Pakistan despite all the conservative panty-wetting and put a fucking bullet in Bin Laden’s goddamn skull. IF ONLY!
True. If you’re a conservative mouthbreather who makes a living on wingnut welfare at the Weekly Standard, your “enemy” is the President of the United States. For the rest of us, the “enemies” are the assholes like him.

@boss bitch: @ned: @Shalimar:
I liked her offer to school Obama on making hard choices, myself.
Because she and Arizona are so known as a laboratory for sanity and good decision-making.

Well live and learn, I wasn’t aware that it is proper procedure for sitting office holders to write books for publication and profit. guess that comes under the heading of

@Elizabelle: I couldn’t read that one word near the end, where the offer to visit the “sjdiljf” still stands, and she’ll buy lunch.
