Governor Brewer Sticks her Finger in President Obama's Face

by notdarkyet

I need to move out of this state. I am so tired of being ashamed of my elected representatives. President Obama came to visit AZ this afternoon and help promote business here, and the first thing our governor does is hand him and letter and try to engage him in angry rhetoric over the border. Then she pointed her finger at him. Now I think pointing at anyone is rude to start with. Pointing it at the President is not only rude, it is classless, tasteless and dumb. I could tell Brewer where to stick her finger.

Those ones who used to jump all over people for the slightest whiff of disrespect for W?

Personally, I think respect has to be earned. W never had mine, but Obama always will. As for the office...yes, I think a modicum of respect is appropriate.

I wouldn't diss the President any more than I would diss the Queen (regardless of my opinions regarding the royal family).
