Gov. Jan Brewer Doubles Down On President Obama: ‘I Thought He Was Pretty Thin-Skinned’

Video
» 312 comments

On Thursday, the Morning Joe crew discussed yesterday’s “intense” meeting (and, consequently, perfect photo-op) between President Barack Obama and Arizona Governor Jan Brewer. As we reported last night, the two entered into what reporters described as an “intense” exchange on a tarmac after, according to Brewer, the President expressed that he was “disturbed” by her memoir Scorpions for Breakfast, feeling it had been disrespectful to him.

RELATED: Gov. Jan Brewer And President Obama Have ‘Intense’ Discussion On Arizona Tarmac

In the memoir, Brewer described a 2010 discussion about Arizona immigration laws, during which she had felt that Obama “thought he could lecture me, and I would learn at his knee.” The White House has described that passage as “inaccurate,” insisting the meeting had been “cordial.”

Brewer explained to reporters on the tarmac last night that she had merely wanted to welcome the President to Arizona and discuss economic recovery, but “all he wanted to talk about was the book.”

I wanted to be there to welcome him to come and see firsthand what Arizona has done in regards to our economic recovery; he wanted to talk about the book. And I thought that he was pretty thin-skinned.

Wound, meet salt? Panelist Mike Barnicle asked whether the book’s full title had actually been Scorpions for Breakfast: Dining Alone. The slam books have been opened, and the jelly pens are out. Tread carefully!

    I see, Jan. When you were wagging your finger at him, you were “welcoming him” by pointing out Arizona was number one.

    If that had been me I would have broken the bitch’s boney finger. Unfortunately, Obama has to keep his cool because he can’t be the ‘angry black man’.

    She says that he lectured her at the White House, but she’s wagging her finger in his face in public?

    Let me help you out, yahoo. Prior to the start of World War II, Chester Nimitz was stationed in Washington. At the time, the navy had several yachts, including one reserved for the president, for use on the Potomac river. If the presidential yacht approached another navy yacht, it was customary for the persons on the non-presidential yacht to line up on deck and pay their respects to the president. Chester Nimitz was from a very conservative political family and one day he had his family aboard a navy yacht when the presidential yacht appeared. His daughter was below deck and she refused to come topside to pay her respect. When Nimitz  found out, he went below and had a very short, but sweet discussion with his daughter. He told her he did not care what she thought about Roosevelt, but that she was coming topside to pay her respect to the POTUS. This is the problem you wingnuts have. You have done everything to deny Barack Obama the respect he deserves as president. Whether it is claiming he won through voter fraud, is ineligible to serve because of his birth, claiming he is not a Christian, etc. This may appeal to your base, but it turns off the vast majority of Americans.

    Oh yeah, and how you lefties all celebrated someone throwing a shoe at the president.

    Lastly, the office of the governor also commands respect even from POTUS. Obama comes across as very thin skinned, as most presidents do not respond to what people write in books or papers about them. Even Bush understood this as he rarely if ever responded to attacks.

    The Republican Party’s hatred for this president truly knows no limits. That Ms. Brewer would embarrass herself, her state, her party, and disrespect her country in such a foul manner to simply score partisan points with the Tea Baggers by appearing to “yell” at Obama is disgusting. This is a time when someone in that state ought to remove her from office, because she is no longer fit to serve. Republicans do not love their country when they think nothing of screaming at their own president for a photo op…  http://www.sunstateactivist.org

    This will catch up with the insufferable Governor Brewer. Her numbers are in the toilet now, and this was simply an attention grab by a desperate woman. We had something similar happen in Texas, as I recounted on another thread. Our governor and failed presidential candidate, Tollbooth Perry made a great show of composing a letter to hand to President Obama when he landed at Austin Bergstrom International Airport some time ago. He did his usual “g” droppin’ hootin’ and hollerin’ and swaggerin’ all about. In the end, he lacked the cajones to deliver the letter. We had this very interesting, charming little show in which he timidly pulled the letter out but never delivered it. On that count, the insufferable Governor Brewer has the cajones Tollbooth lacks. Interesting thing. All this signifyin’ and rude actin’ has takin’ its Toll on Tollbooth. Dallas Morning News polls on popularity and approval of Tollbooth, released this mornin’, show him less popular in Texas than President Obama. The same will happen to the insufferable Governor Brewer. In the end, Americans are good and decent, civil people. This kind of thing doesn’t set at all well.

    I remember that meeting (news of it at the time), she was being respectful to the President during an ongoing process where the administration would supposedly get back to her in following weeks.  If you are in negotiations with a potential partner you tend not to call them on their supposed faults until you are certain they aren’t just being rude but still going to act responsibly.   Obama was rude and was not acting responsible, we know that from the populist arrogance he displayed at the time and his policy actions and comments since.  This is the real world, not everything is put on the table at the same time so it makes a tidy soundbite.

    First, the assault was from an Iraqi journalist. That is an important detail. Second, the level of domestic anger directed toward Obama far outweighs anything directed at Bush. Hatred of Obama is institutionalized. It flows from increasingly expanding media, includes racist jokes and imagery spread by Republican politicians and has spawned a domestic separatist movement. The worst case, institutionally, of Bush hatred was the user submitted MoveOn commercial that equated Bush with Hitler. It was removed and MoveOn issued an apology. The same sort of speech now gets Newt Gingrich the lead in the Republican primary race.

    Don’t be so thick, cnick, I’ve never heard Limbaugh except occasional excerpts from news programs or sites having a story on him (positive or negative depending on the outlet) and I agree ‘President Hissy Fit’ and ‘Campaigner in Chief’, and the ‘President Who Votes Present’ are all accurate descriptions of this President.   Instead of whining all the time about those who don’t agree with him why won’t he try to engage them and find common ground like EVERY other President has done?   

    He has no interest in a separate but equal government, its his way or his way, and if somehow he doesn’t get his way he whines about it and liberals like you applaud him – meanwhile the problems never get fixed, unless you are an Obama supporter, he’s all about the graft and cronyism…

    As for Obama’s inaugural address, criticism isn’t inherently disrespectful. And as for his reponding to what people write, Obama’s been mostly circumspect about all the birther stuff that’s been written. And not having heard the conversation between he and Brewer, you really can’t say how he responded. After all, Brewer’s a notorious liar, from her son to the SS controversy to the severed heads rolling around in the desert, she’s not exactly the picture of verity, is she??

Any evidence of that?The GOP isn’t demanding his school records and writings because there’s no “there” there. If they thought there were, you can bet they’d be demanding them. So since they aren’t, are you claiming that the GOP is “in the bag” for Obama?

    Employment fell off a cliff as Obama took office. Look at the jobs numbers starting in January of 08.
    http://www.calculatedriskblog….
    Since the inherited drop, jobs have seen a steady return that almost exactly mirrors the angle of return established after the 2001 recession…
    http://www.calculatedriskblog….
    The stimulus was not “spending” strictly speaking. The plurality of stimulus cost associated with tax cuts, the next largest category being grants to state governments.
    http://www.creditloan.com/info...
    The combined tax cuts and moderate spending resulted in a return to pre-crisis GDP that our financial doppelganger (England) did not achieve under a policy of fiscal austerity.

    Historically, political debate has not been respectful, I think we have the past idealized in this way.  For example, I’m sure that white southern conservatives had plenty of invective to spew at Lincoln, for example.  I mean white southern conservatives started a civil war because he was elected president, after all.

    4.  No matter where this rumors first surfaced, the republiklan party is the birther party.  They are the ones that pass birther bills.  They are the ones who made Donald Trump a presidential contender when his one qualification was that he is a birther.

    5.  As I said, name calling the president is nothing new.  But the way you guys have disrespected the first lady is just classless.  The last two democratic first ladies have been treated with so much disrespect by conservatives.  Now with Hilary I can almost excuse it, she was running with the big dawgs after all.  But the way you guys talk about Michelle’s ass, the way so many of you routinely insult her is completely reprehensible.  You are sleaze.

    It’s one thing for an anonymous lay person to have referred to George Bush with disparaging comments, but people in the public eye must be more discerning and show respect for the office of the president.  President Obama has been shown more disrespect and suffered more personal affronts by politicians than anyone in my memory  –  politicians who should be setting an example of decorum have debased themselves and their constituents and the nation with their lack of respect — it’s unpatriotic.

    A very quick review of the evidence

    1: The link, “Artists, writers, singers, poets etc” is almost entirely composed of non-American criticism. Those Americans on the list are not mainstreamed.
    2: The WaPost link discusses the MoveOn video that works as evidence of restrain when compared to the present moment (user generated and removed).
    3: Wayne Madson is considered an oddball conspiracy theorist. Counterpunch caters to all brands of conspiracy. He has no legitimacy.
    4: A site filled with gibberish clearly the work of a mad person( big red and blue font). When your evidence includes http://www.parallel-youniversity.com/ you know your case is thin.
    5: A book about the Bush family connection to the Saudi family? That’s vile?
    6: Rhandi Rhodes is a moron. Probably the worst example provided.
    7: The “Ki## Bush” T? Again, user generated.

    My entire point is that the criticism of Obama is institutional. Entire wings of media have emerged to generate hatred of Obama through misinformation. Politicians have circulated racist material amongst themselves.

    The examples of Bush hatred you provided are the products of rotten people. The best examples are from individuals outside of mainstream institutions.

    Are you seriously whinning about someone not showing up for that propaganda speech?  Tell me, have any Liberals ever failed to show up for a Republican Pres making his SOTU speech?  EVER

    Birther or not, He has failed to provide the honest truth required by our Constitution to become President.  Why is that?   Any time there is a question, AND surely you can understand there are many regarding his REAL status, the American people must be assured they are voting for someone who is legally able to become President.

    Ohhhhh and someone called his wife a name,  I would not do that but then I didnt,  However, when you can show me that Liberals never ever do that to a Conservative then come back and make this point.   I do not tolerate two faced hypocrites well and you sir are just that.

    As one of  the states with the best voting record in the nation, Arizona voters didn’t go for “You Lie!” hussein in the primary (Hillary won) and didn’t go for “You Lie!” in the general.  Everyone knows that “You Lie!” hussein and his imbecile AG (and Black Panther Party supporter and defender) holder have relentlessly attacked, vilified and sued Arizona because it tries to protect its citizens from ILLEGAL invader criminals (which they won’t do). Arizona has done more than any other state to fight d-cRAT socialist extremism, including blocking obozocare’s mandate, stopping forced unionization, prohibiting affirmative action discriminatory special treatment and countless other socialist atrocities.

    The citizens of the Great State of Arizona welcome ALL American patriots to join us in the epic battle against socialist extremism.

    And now, the Great State of Arizona will go after the accomplices to the murder of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry who were part of, were knowledgeable of, and approved the OBOZO regime’s Fast and Furious atrocity. Look for holder/OBOZO to sue Arizona once again to stop this execution of justice, but their intimidation won’t work–patriots are not frightened by third-rate dictator extremists.

    Since the history of American democracy politics have been confrontational, but not to this level, until, President Obama came into office. “If they bring a knife to a fight, let’s bring a gun…” President Obama… continues… “be on their face, shout them down”. This, from a President who said he knows how to bring people together? Oh well, how about Senator Obama’s assertion that he shook hands with George W. Bush and he watched him(G.W. Bush) wipe his hands with alcohol? It is Senator Obama’s observation and feeling on his first meeting with George W. Bush in his book. Bush didn’t lambast him or feel the need to question the veracity of his observation or feelings.

    Why President Obama have to be right at all times is disturbing. The egotistical, condescending, selfish, manipulating narcissistic maniacal politician always feels the need to attack women. President Obama just stood there looking down at Brewer as if to say, you’re beneath me. President Obama thinks of himself as if he’s God not god. The cunning President Obama was aware of the media presence thus, didn’t feel the need to raise his finger at Brewer. Who could forget Senator Obama wagging his finger at Senator Lieberman of Connecticut, at the Senate building… for his support of Sen. John McCain… he’s learned.

    Among African Americans, since I am one of them, you can never say anything critical of President Obama without being ferociously attacked. It’s as if President Obama is god. No other African American politician have garnered such intense rebuke for being criticized. Yet, he has done the least, in bringing growth in our Black communities. Growth is not hand out.  For your information, we do not need hand outs, selfish and narcissistic maniacal President.

    He would send his surrogates to crow racism at every mention or critic of his subpar performance. It’s a shame to see what this President have become. A sham! 98% of African American votes yet we have the highest unemployment in our communities! Today, no political sentence is complete without someone crying racism. It’s time to ferment racial politics, to rally his minions, for his re-election.  I’ve wondered where the word “racism” have been since the past two and half years. Who could forget Bill Clinton being tagged a racist. Bill Clinton?

    Did his plan happen? No, thus not a lie.

    Jeez, P-blo, the Republicans controlled both Houses of Congress at the time. Of course, Bush’s plan happened.  The adminstration just lied about what it’s effects would be. 

    Or, are you claiming that unless a President is able to enact his agenda completely, no exceptions, he can’t be held responsible for the gulf between promises and policies?

    By the way, when Joe Wilson’s tourettes kicked in at the health care speech, in the summer of ’09, there was no final health care plan, nor did Obama have much to do with what did exist.  So Wilson yelling, “You lie,” was as dishonest as it was classless, right?

    Maybe the President should take a page out of his wife’s playbook and dismiss book’s that have excerpts written about him. After all, Jan Brewer isn’t the first to mention him and most certainly will not be the last. The fact that he even brought it up, on the tarmac no less, says a lot about the level of discussion and immaturity. Was he planning on accomplishing anything during this visit – if so he should learn how to conduct himself in the behavior befitting a man of his station. Unless, letting loose his displeasure over a few excerpts in a book was a strategic tactic?

    He did the same thing during the BP Oil spill crisis, was more concerned with looking bad than the status of the victims are environment and cleanup efforts.

    I guess Obama forgot his race card at the White House.
    He’s more than “thin-skinned”….He’s a gutless.

    I am still not sure BP wasn’t a victim of Obama’s Chicago thug-style sabotage.
    The unions are famous for that tactic.
    Of course….liberals will spin it into “they deserved it”….OR….”Bush did it too” bullsh*t

    Let’s just say Obama’s reputation precedes him:
    Thou Shalt Not Write Bad Things About Obama
    http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/thou-shalt-not-write-bad-things-about-obama_618603.html

    Barack Obama’s skin is so thin, if he had to box his way out of a paper bag, it would not be a pretty sight.(Picture Chuck Wepner, AKA the Bayonne Bleeder:
    http://www.thesweetscience.com/columnists/joe-rein/6660-tss-where-are-they-now-chuck-wepner )

    In closing, I imagine most Americans would have a heated argument with Obama if they had the chance…

    That said, I support Arizona Governor Jan Brewer!

    And I look forward to reading her explosive book Scorpions for Breakfast!

  • Anonymous

    You are correct. LIke a petulant manchild, Obama strolls up and denounces Brewer’s book because it did not treat him “cordially”. And with all our REAL problems at the Mexican border? What a fool!
    But there was some poetic justice in all this: Obama’s little tirade will stimulate sales of “Scorpions for Breakfast.”
    Congratulations, Governor. You have exposed our Narcissist-in-Chief for all the world to see.

    Well said! I cannot believe she wagged her finger in the Presidents face. The GOP have not done themselves any favors by their behavior. They never refer to him as President Obama.

    He walked away because he is a gentlemen. If he were to show the lack of class the way she did, he probablly would have pushed her out of the way. 

    I feel sorry for her employees. If she was that disrepectful to the President I can just imagine how she treats them.

    I thought Florida received the most negative publicity , but it seems as though Arizona has received justt as much for their racism and hate filled Politics.

    1. Teabaggers bringing automatic weapons to his speeches and rallies.
     Never happened – the one photo to which you allude was a gentleman at a Tea Party event with a AR15, unloaded. It’s semi auto, not an automatic (machine gun). Get your facts straight.
    2. Having a no name congressman call him a liar during a joint address to Congress. 
    Truth is an absolute defense; the congressman was right, the President was telling a bald faced lie.
    3. Having elected officials refuse to attend the SOTU address. 
    This is not that unusual; do you think every Democrat attended Bush’s STOU addresses?
     4. The whole birther nonsense especially as it was fomented by other elected public servants.
    Which public servants?
     5. Calling his wife names like Moo-Chelle.

    Awww; I wonder how many times the left defamed Bush by calling him a Nazi, a murderer, etc. Spare us your outrage.

    Having served under Real Presidents, Nixon thru Reagan, I have to say, Obama is the most Pathetic person ever to sit in the Oval Office.  I have the highest respect for the office of President, but I have totally no respect for Obama as a person.  I helped vote Carter into office and I helped to vote him out.  Praise Jesus I was not blind enough to support Obama!  I could tell he was worthless from the start!  Obama deserves nothing but contempt from We, the People.  He is a Liar and Corrupt as they get!  He has made America a laughing stock in the world and America will be much better off without the likes of this Chicago Gansta and his horribly ugly skank, Michelle!  Give us a Real America as President, not some half African ba§tard child who can’t even prove who he is.  His father was not American, Obama is not a Natural Born American!

    Pablo, Chuck and you other morons who have so little productive activity you can post on here all day: on August 17th, 2009 in Phoenix a dozen protesters brought guns to a protest outside a speech Obama gave. Really happened, I was there. Try doing a little research before you make asses of yourselves again. This was in Arizona, you know where Gabby Giffords among others was shot by another legally gun totin’ wacko.

    Really? That’s the stupidest thing you’ve ever heard? That can’t be true. How are people to take you seriously when you make such outrageous statements to prove such a simple point? Hmmm…I just seriously can’t imagine how limited a mind must be if that statement is really the stupidest thing you’ve ever heard. That’s just hard to believe.

  • Anonymous

    Not really. I never made the argument that Obama was an obnoxious or rude person. I simply pointed to a behavior that he admits to that is discourteous. Smoking. It’s so discourteous, most states are now making it illegal to do around others in a public place.

    My point wasn’t that Obama is some obnoxious jerk as Gov. Brewer probably was being. My point was that you simple partisans are so blinded by your ideology that you make such silly statements. TRRE is a repeat offender.

    [Mediaite: Obama inspires posts like this one which I recently noticed on the web. Enjoy.]

                EMPEROR AND EMPRESS OBAMA

     
        The Old Testament has time-proven insights into professional vacationers like the Obamas:
         Proverbs 19:10 (NIV): “It is not fitting for a fool to live in luxury – how much worse for a slave to rule over princes!”
         Also Proverbs 30:22 (NIV) which says that the earth cannot bear up under “a servant who becomes king.”
         And Ecclesiastes 5:2-3 (KJV) advises: “let thy words be few…a fool’s voice is known by multitude of words.”
         Although Obama is not descended from slaves, he may feel that he’s destined to become a black-slavery avenger.
         Or maybe an enslaver of all free citizens!
        
    For some stunning info on Pres. Obama and his fellow traitors, Google
    “Imam Bloomberg’s Sharia Mosque,” “Michelle Obama’s Allah-day,” “Obama
    Supports Public Depravity,” “David Letterman’s Hate Etc.,” “Un-Americans
    Fight Franklin Graham” and also “Sandra Bernhard, Larry David, Kathy
    Griffin, Bill Maher, Joan Rivers, Sarah Silverman.” Also Google “Islam
    will purify Jews and Christians” and “Prof. F. N. Lee’s ISLAM IN THE
    BIBLE [PDF].”
         Since Christians are commanded to ask God to send
    severe judgment on persons who commit and support the worst forms of
    evil (see I Cor. 5 and note “taken away”), Christians everywhere should
    constantly pray that the Lord will soon “take away” or at least
    overthrow all US leaders (including subversive, America-hating,
    Jesus-bashing Hollywood shmucks) who continue to sear their conscience,
    who dangle every unspeakably filthy vice before young people, and who
    arrogantly trample the God-given rights of the majority including the
    rights of the unborn. Do we need a second American Revolution?
        
    After the Obamas are kicked out of the White House, there will be no
    place on earth where they can escape from scowling folks who wish to
    belatedly express their gratitude, in tangible ways, to the Obamas who
    tried to destroy the greatest nation ever.
         For the record I’ll
    predict that after the Nov. 2012 election, Obama will try something so
    unthinkably insane that he will be physically restrained and locked up -
    and remember where you heard this first!

    Conservatives – defined as those averse to change and who have an affinity for tradition – by definition are illogical. They’d prefer to keep things the way the “fathers” did without questioning their logical completeness. Again, by definition, they are barriers to the evolutionary process. Conservatives need to be split from the Republican party. True Republican theory is perhaps a superior and practical form of governance in a country where the majority cannot be willingly expected to contribute to a democratic model. Let us split into a tri-party system and it’ll be easier to weed out the truly illogical ones. This way, they can always have their say, and their increasing numbers may suggest a general decline in the quality of fundamental education in the US.
