Arizona Governor Jan Brewer met with President Obama in the Oval Office today in what she described as a “very cordial” discussion regarding her state’s controversial new immigration law. Afterward she took questions from various members of the press; when asked if Obama had read the law, she did not answer, choosing only to smile knowingly.

    Why would anyone believe a word this woman says anyway. He father died fighting the Nazis in Nevada in 1955, indeed!

  • writer

    So, if Brewer lied, that means there are no longer thousands of people illegally in Arizona. That changes the whole dynamic.

    The best part is at 1:50 when the camera man in the back is getting the stellar shot of the back of her head gets bumped by some guy and acts like his eye got knocked out. I see a law suit!

    Somebody tell this old lady that she has missed the Palin/Bachman boat.

    “Afterward she took questions from various members of the press; when asked if Obama had read the law, she did not answer, choosing only to smile knowingly.”

    At least the Nancy boy finally talked to her. He refused to for weeks. Was he scared? I don’t know. Was Michelle telling him not to? Maybe. At least she answered questions by the press, Obama, before last week, refused to. Nancy boy? I think so.

    Barack Obama Lied About his Uncle Liberating a Nazi Concentration Camp

    Below is a video of Barack Obama talking about his uncle’s role in liberating the Nazi concentration camp in Auschwitz.

    There is one small problem with his account of the story however. Auschwitz was liberated by the Soviets, not the Americans. OUCH! His campaign’s response was to say that he, and here is that word again, “misspoke”.

  • The Real Royal King

    Blumenthal lied. No question about it. I wouldn’t vote for him, but I also wouldn’t vote for that bogus wrestling/porn/reality television star and promoter the Republicans are running.

    As for Brewer. 1955. Nazis. Nevada. Big, big whopper there. She has diminished the service of everyone who really sacrificed to fight the Nazis. She should resign for this slight.

    As for Obama, his uncle liberated a satellite camp of Buchenwald. Thirty lashes with a wet noodle for getting that wrong.

    You neglected to include any reference to Mark Kirk, the Republican candidate for Senate in Illinois. Boy did he tell some real whoppers about his service record!

  • The Real Royal King

    Is anyone else struck by how John Simpson omitted the reference to Buchenwald and any reference to Kirk? I suppose these weren’t in the RNC Talking Points.

    No- he misspoke like Barry did !!

    King, Barry lied!

    Get used to it!

  • The Real Royal King

    Your proof, President Obama lied about this, John? I don’t think you have any. I think he knew the family story of the Liberation of Buchenwald, and he mixed his camps. Are you claiming the uncle did not help liberate Buchenwald? If so, where is your proof he did not? If you concede he did, then I think we have an obvious mix-up. Sorry that you couldn’t come up with a good bash here, John, but blame the facts.

    That’s all the proof that is needed!

  • JohnSimpson

    He didn’t say Buchenwald.

  • JohnSimpson

    You, know, like saying you served in Vietnam and were spit on , king?

    Like that.

    He didn’t say Buchenwald.

    I see. You have no proof that this was anything but a mistake. No problem.

    Take solace. You missed out an opportunity to bash our President, but you got Blumenthal. I good Kirk and the liar in Arizona. 1 : 2, but that’s not bad, except in soccer and baseball. In cricket, it would almost be a win.

  • JohnSimpson

    Soory, king, barry is the smartest man in the world and he doesn’t make mistakes. Ergo, he lied!

  • The Real Royal King

    I can see why you used the Hillary! picture. It fits you well.

  • JohnSimpson

    Tsk, tsk- now resorting to your inner childishness.
    What a regressive lib you are.

  • The Real Royal King

    John, dear, make a pot of herbal tea and take a couple of Midol. You are over-wrought.

  • JohnSimpson

    No, king- you have become so delicate lately. What’s wrong- you ran out of crack?

  • sandman6

    Can we get away from the personal tennis and face the real issue, please? Arizona is being overrun by illegal immigrants and being savaged by gangs, drug and person runners and others crossing the border illegally, if for no other reason than to steal benefits from taxpayers. Jan Brewer has a plan to stem the tide. Barack Obama does not.

    The fact that this has been politicized beyond the point of logic, somehow characterizing ILLEGAL immigrants as the victims is a tragic circumstance of the dumbing down of society. Because they are so smitten with Obama, the press pushes this out, and those apparently incapable of original thought have joined to chorus of cries. If you commit a crime, and ILLEGAL immigration is a crime, you deserve to be punished.

  • MichelleF

    Your Dem party, ladies and gents:

    Awful racist Rep. Linda Sanchez told an audience that white supremists are behind the new Arizona immigration law.
    FOX News reported:

    A California congresswoman is pointing the finger at white supremacist groups, who she says have inspired Arizona’s new law cracking down on illegal immigrants.

    Rep. Linda Sanchez, D-Calif., told a Democratic Club on Tuesday that white supremacist groups are influencing lawmakers to adopt laws that will lead to discrimination.

    “There’s a concerted effort behind promoting these kinds of laws on a state-by-state basis by people who have ties to white supremacy groups,” said the lawmaker, who is of Mexican descent. “It’s been documented. It’s not mainstream politics.”

    This is the part where I will remind ibs that a majority of American’s agree with AZ.

  • Moderate

    The people of Zimbabwe should get the same chance as Mexicans to immigrate in this country. Just because someone breaks into your house, doesn’t mean you must allow him to live there.

  • AmericanCowboy

    Obama is a moron!!!!

    Perhaps it’s the same reason why the Democratic Senatorial Committee is standing by Blumenthal.

    So Brewer should resign… but you’re cool with the Democrats standing by Blumenthal? What about Hillary Clinton “taking sniper fire?” Should she have resigned too? Should she resign now?

    “So Brewer should resign… but you’re cool with the Democrats standing by Blumenthal? What about Hillary Clinton “taking sniper fire?” Should she have resigned too? Should she resign now?”

    Do you ever address the topic or do you just point fingers at other bad behavior?

  • writer

    So if Brewer was no longer in office, Arizona would no longer have people entering the state illegally.

    I believe I was addressing the topic. Your desire to have her resign is hypocritical, and based purely on politics not principle. That’s what I’ve demonstrated. Thusly, your whole premise was/is flawed.
