POOL REPORT
President Obama arrived in Phoenix at 3:15 pm local time, finding the chilly weather of Iowa giving way to sunny skies and temperatures in the high 60s.
He stepped off Air Force One at 3:28 pm and was greeted by Gov. Jan Brewer. She handed him a handwritten letter in an envelope and they spoke intensely for a few minutes. At one point, she pointed her finger at him.
Afterwards, your pooler spoke with the governor.
"He was a little disturbed about my book, Scorpions for Breakfast. I said to him that I have all the respect in the world for the office of the president. The book is what the book is. I asked him if he read the book. He said he read the excerpt. So."
Asked what aspect of the book disturbed him, Brewer said: "That he didn't feel that I had treated him cordially. I said I was sorry he felt that way but I didn't get my sentence finished. Anyway, we're glad he's here. I'll regroup."

Haha...check out my post at 180...I know exactly what you go through. I live up in the PRM (People’s Republic of Massachusetts)
No, that would be addressed to Brewer or Boehner, not Obama
...and to top it off, the guy didn’t know who Bill Ayers was.
Perfect.
These politicians who work for US had better stand up, speak out and take OUT this domestic enemy in the White House. Let's hear it for the army of women...and men, who are not afraid to fight for this country....may their numbers grow and prosper..or else.

Ha! Brilliant!
I forced myself to read “Dreams From My Father”...
It was nauseating, but I had to do it because I criticized an excerpt from the book and a liberal said I was taking it out of context.
So I checked out the book from the library and slogged my way through it. The only thing that was ever more difficult for me to get through was “Rules for Radicals”. Obama sure does come off as a racist in his book, though. He sounds race obsessed. But then, he is a liberal, so that is redundant.
I am not really all that hot on Gingrich, but what irritated me is the standard liberal slander of Republicans...they are either evil (Gingrich and Nixon) stupid (Quayle and Palin) or both evil and stupid (Bush)
This stuff is inappropriate to send to people at work, but hey, I wasn’t going to just sit there and accept it. I would rather duke it out than whine to authority.
You’re doin’ great rl. Don’t change a thing. ;o)
You’re right of course. I appreciate the correction. I heard later this evening on FOX Radio News that the letter was a request for a meeting with Mr. Obama.
Thought you all might like to see how this is being spun in the media:
“Obama Faces Down Brewer In Tense Tarmac Arizona Exchange”
Confident after his forthright State of the Union Address, President Obama tore into Arizona’s Republican governor, Jan Brewer, on the airport tarmac at Phoenix. Governor Brewer was essentially greeting the President on behalf of the people of the State of Arizona but what should have been a gentle meet and greet became an anxious interchange.
Obama took the opportunity to respond to Brewer’s request for a meeting to remind her that last time that they met in the White House she gave an account of the meeting not in line with what actually happened. The account appears in the Governor’s book ‘Scorpions for Breakfast’
At one point in the tarmac discussion Brewer is seen jabbing a finger towards the President in what was clearly a heated moment. The greeting had started fine until Brewer presented Obama with a letter requesting a meeting with him to discuss Arizona’s economy.
It was at this point that the President reminded Brewer of his annoyance at what she had written in her book.
(SNIP)
The President indicated to Brewer that despite their disagreement he would welcome the chance to discus the Arizona economy with her and any other state matters moving forward.

Barack heard that people in Arizona need to verify that they are citizens or legal residents of the United States.
This made Barack nervous.
I support her, but this pic will not help her case in the public eye.

Your Governor is a lady I respect immensely! Loved her book too.
It’s the same touch that Cain was accused of. Sexual harassment! Ossama hates women. But most muslim’s do. He will pay for this. The LSTM will be all over this. Not
