Bloviating Zeppelin: Brewer Stands Up To Obama

Bloviating Zeppelin

(in-ep-toc'-ra-cy) - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

Brewer Stands Up To Obama

And a nice photograph it is, also.

Finally, a Republican who can stand up to Mr Obama. Directly. From ABCNews:

Longstanding tension between Republican Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer and Democratic President Barack Obama flared into the public spotlight Wednesday just after Air Force One touched down in Phoenix.

Brewer, who was on the tarmac to greet Obama, hand-delivered a letter before engaging the president "intensely" for several minutes, including pointing her finger directly at him, according to Politico's Carrie Budoff Brown, acting as a pool reporter for other media outlets.

Accounts from both camps later said the terse talk focused on Brewer's book - "Scorpions for Breakfast: My Fight Against Special Interests, Liberal Media and Cynical Politicos to Secure America's Border."

The book, which was released in November, describes a June 2010 Oval Office meeting between Obama and Brewer aimed at diffusing conflicts surrounding Arizona's controversial state immigration law and the administration's immigration policy.

It is of great interest that I note these thoughts from Governor Brewer:

Brewer complains in "Scorpions for Breakfast" that she and her staff were treated coldly by White House aides, prevented from taking pictures in the holding room outside the Oval Office and that their cell phones and cameras were "confiscated" by Secret Service.

"Too bad we weren't illegal aliens, or we could have sued them," she writes.

During her meeting with the president, Brewer said Obama was "condescending" and professorial, "lecturing" on his efforts to promote comprehensive immigration reform.

"It wasn't long before I realized I was hearing the president's stump speech," she said. "Only I was supposed to listen without talking. Did he care to hear the view from the actual scene at the border? Did the opinions and observations of the people of Arizona mean anything to him? I didn't think so."

"He was patronizing," she said. "Then it dawned on me: He's treating me like the cop he had over for a beer after he bad-mouthed the Cambridge police, I thought. He thinks he can humor me and then get rid of me."

Imagine that. Obama patronizing, arrogant, lecturing, thin-skinned. I am shocked. Shocked, I tell you.

Liberalmann said...: Brewer is an old barfly needs to shut her trap and stop trying to make a profit off of jailing brown people in her private crony owned prisons.

Bush was never subjected to the level of racist and disrespectful rhetoric by so many including other politicians. And Obama has to take it graciously or the sleaze merchants at Fox News will start with the 'angry black man' crap again.

Thankfully, Obama just walked away from this corrupt idiot.; Thu Jan 26, 04:46:00 PM PST

Liberalmann: again, you serve a purpose. Brewer is doing what the federal government is tasked with doing but refuses to do, because the regime wants the illegal votes. And clearly, because of your name and your position, you don't live in a border state nor do you own property on or near the border. It's a complete coinky-dink that brown people are involved, who are sourcing from Mexico. Great idea! Let's import more Teutonics, like yourself, to come to Mexico so you can yourself come across the border, illegally, to make the melanin count more fair! Brilliant! Let's start with you. Move to Mexico!

Further, I suppose the very highly-respected Leftist blog -- The Smirking Chimp -- had absolutely nothing to do with disrespect towards Bush. What do you think might occur had a Conservative dreamed up a blog named The Smirking Chimp and featured a large photo of Obama on the masthead -- as TSC did with Bush?

Obama has never known dissolution or face-to-face disagreement in his life. His so-called "arguments" are specious and his facts are primarily non-existent. When unarmed in a dialogue, one tends to walk away. Witness Mr Obama.

Thank you, Mr LiberalMann, for making my points precisely. You are, on occasion, useful. My blessings to you for this!

NFO: yes, I sense that.

Liberalmann said...: Wow BZ, you are so full of shit I can smell you all the way here in NY.; Thu Jan 26, 08:23:00 PM PST
Bloviating Zeppelin said...: LiberalMANN:

And isn't it wonderful, sir, to be able to opine about a regional situation with which you not only know NOTHING about but, additionally, are insulated by literally THOUSANDS of miles?

I knew by the cut of your jib that you were a Leftist poseur who spouts from not only a position of extended anonymity but extended distance as well.

Again, you do your best to prove me correct and, again, I thank you for your craven comments.

Jejune, thy name is LiberalMANN. Double N's. Germanic to the grave. Hope you enjoy your next NY Leftist cocktail party. Grey Goose and Ketel One to you, sir! Pounds of 1-percentile caviar, eh? Nudge-nudge, wink-wink!

P.S.
Probably not even old enough to be a Monty Python fan, eh, you Wascally Wabbit?; Thu Jan 26, 09:04:00 PM PST
mrchuck said...: Obaka can never debate.
He was trained by Saul Alinsky thr Communist and follows this agenda 100%
This is the credo of ALL community organizers".
Notice how close "community" is to "communist".
Obummer is a poser, a fraud, and many States of the USA have already notified him to bring forth true legitimate documents that he was in fact born in the USA,,,not phoney Hawaiian photo shopped documents with the wrong hospital on it.
Many other States of the Union are going to also file.
So, as we see in this Obama photo wagging his finger and "schooling" Gov. of Arizona Jan Brewer, it is clear he is a callous tainted man who has no confidence in his bluff anymore.

Things are now "brewing" and will begin to boil soon!; Fri Jan 27, 06:35:00 PM PST
Catherine Moore-Barry said...: Thank you and all your kind Liberalmann. You are the reason I was so sickened by the Demonrat Party over a decade ago. Your unreasonable thinking and lack of logic or pesky little facts remind me that I need to get down on my knees and give thanks to the Almighty that I grew a brain and distanced myself from the Party of Doom. Thank you.

Go Governor Brewer!; Thu Feb 02, 06:40:00 AM PST
Bloviating Zeppelin said...: CMB: thank you for visiting, and thank you for taking the time to comment. Please visit frequently.

I too was a Demorat in my youth, when I thought with my emotions instead of my God-given brain.
