Sarah Palin: Obama will come back early from vacation
CBS News ^ | 08/19/2011 | Lucy Madison

Posted on 08/19/2011 8:41:34 AM PDT by Responsibility2nd

Sarah Palin has yet to make clear her intentions for the 2012 presidential elections, but she remains vocal in the debate over President Obama's performance.

In a Fox News appearance on Thursday, Palin blasted President Obama for taking a vacation on Martha's Vineyard - and predicted that "he will come back early" after hearing from disgruntled Americans.

Palin, a paid Fox News contributor, called Mr. Obama's vacation "very, very tone deaf" considering the nation's current economic woes, and said she would have acted differently.

"I wouldn't if I were he, especially to Martha's Vineyard," she said. "I think he will hear from enough Americans that he will come back early."

Sarah is crazy like a fox!

The smart thing would be for Obama to come back early, but now he cannot because it will look like he’s doing it because Sarah told him to.

Sort of the same way Rick Perry backed Bernanke into a corner with the “treason” crack.

“Sarah has said she will make an announcement on Sept. 3.”

I know that she is going to give a speech on that day. I believe she is very close to announcing and I have been guessing that she will announce on Sept. 3.

However, I have not heard or read where she has specifically said she will make the announcement on that date.

I am not challenging your post, but could you please point me to a source?

Please, please, please let it be true.

***Beside the fact that it was a crap claim, Bush took working vacations and held press conferences with foreign dignitaries while on vacation all the time.***

Besides that, Bush stayed at his own ranch, paid for by him, built to green specifications, while Zero bills the taxpayers for his luxurious trips and Moosechelle’s unending appetite.

No. Please challenge any of my posts at any time. I know I read from a credible source that Sarah said she would make an announcement regarding if she will run or not on Sept. 3.

I even googled it...

http://www.google.com/#hl=en&q=sarah+palin+September+3&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=2968l9655l0l11702l23l20l0l0l0l1l656l6234l0.2.7.5.0.4l18l0&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbo=u&tbm=nws&source=og&sa=N&tab=wn&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=d12b7d12b0669f8f&biw=1024&bih=601

But I’ve not found that link. So anyway, It’s speculation. But IMO, Spetember 3 is a Saturday. Before Labor Day. And I think she’ll toss her hat in the ring at that time.

Even the press called it the Second White House. And the tax payers didn’t pay for it, Bush did.

Lol! She just put him in a catch 22, if he doesn't come back early he looks out of touch, if he does he looks like he's reacting to her criticism.

Bingo. It's nice to see someone that knows how to play politics.

I love Sarah to pieces. As much as I’d like to see her President, I think this go around she would best serve as an Obama foil, every day on FaceBook and on the campaign trail banging away at him and blocking for the ultimate conservative candidate (if we have one emerge and survive). Then she could be named Energy Secretary. Later she could run for the top slot.

However, Bush was not on vacation just because he was in Crawford rather than the Whitehouse.

That's right. They even had the logo: "The Western White House".

I cannot think of my source but somehow I had Sept. 3 for Palin announcement in my head.

I remember dates by always wondering if there is a specific reason for the date given.

I'm sure she will pick the best date.

She is sly as a Fox. So what is Barry O going to do?

so What to do? Stay the whole vacation or ..... ? He is so busted, either way!

One out of 3 days. So 10 days a month they claim. Lies and slander.

Source: NPR Research by Barbie Keiser. ROTFLMAO!

Notice that Barbie didn't include ANY vacation time that O'Blamer spent at his own home or at Camp David and that George W. Bush's vacation time was ONLY at Camp David and his own home where he WORKED and GW Bush's vaca time was ONLY at his own home and Camp David.

Reagan's was also at his own home.

I go back and forth and sometimes I come up with the same as you posted.

Sometimes the exact opposite.

Like “brackets”, I've put her in POTUS, VPOTUS and various cabinet posts.

IMHO, Palin plays chess; Obama plays checkers.

Thanks.

I sure hope it happens.

Even though I know that we should stay home this year and count nickels, my wife and I will be traveling on vacation and this news would make it even better.... no not better, it would make it the best.

I wish this event wasn’t so far from our house..... I would drive there just to be part of it.

I think Obama will come home early, call it a crisis move, order Congress back in for an emergency session and bitch because Congress didn’t do it on their own.

This fight is going to get very bloody.

When Gretta asked her (I think last night) Sarah said something about how people can be very effective without running, so she is being purposely coy about it if he is announcing on the 3rd.
