“Well, he’s got his priorities skewed, really, Greta — and I take it literally that he was getting ready for, packing for vacation, while here it was Secretary Clinton asking on behalf of the United States of America for another president of another country to step down — that is our president’s role,” the former Alaska governor told Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren.
“This is another example of President Obama leading from behind — makes you scratch your head and wonder what really does he do?”
…he’s stepping back and allowing Hillary Clinton to basically carry the water for our entire nation.
“And I’ll bet you, Greta, going out on a limb … but I just think that after a day like this, where you saw that kind of presidential aura of Hillary Clinton as she made that announcement today, while Barack Obama was packing to head out for 10 days on vacation again to go golf and tickle his feet in the sand — I’ll bet you people, if they had to do it over again, who had that choice at that time in the Democrat primary between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama — I bet you today, they are saying: ‘We should have gone with Hillary Clinton.’”
BI: Sarah Palin: I Don’t Think Newsweek’s Cover Of Michele Bachmann Was Sexist
Here’s what Palin told Fox’s Megyn Kelly when she brought up the cover:
Every candidate is going to be vetted I think now so more than ever because we learned a lesson with electing a president who was not vetted by the mainstream media. And basically we’re asking now ‘what did we get out of that?’…so I think there’s going to be a lot of vetting and some will interpret that because a female candidate will be vetted the same as a man or even more so as being sexist. I don’t know if I would characterize it as sexist. I would just characterize it as being the new normal. In a way it’s quite healthy though, again, learning a lesson from electing Barack Obama.
“The Bachmanns are America’s indoor Palins.”
Lawrence O’Donnell at MSNBC has been stirring up a conspiracy theory that Newsweek made some deal with Sarah Palin to the cover story. Peter Boyer finally strikes back: “I’m glad to get career-passing grades from that great journalist Lawrence O’Donnell.” Zing!
Really Cheatsheet/Newsweek? Are you sorta trying to rebut O’Donnell’s claims by showing us this? I realize you’re pointing out Boyer’s one-liner. But you added that O’Donnell is pushing a “conspiracy theory.” And, yes, O’Donnell does say something like, “We’ve all done things for money.” But directing us to this?? Really? Gretchen Carlson? The only person in media with a bigger Palin crush is Greta Van Susteren. Ok, I’m done. Time for some moose stew.
Lawrence O’Donnell Slams Newsweek For Story On Sarah Palin
Asked what was to be made of the fact that so many Republicans were looking beyond the field of declared candidates to people like herself, and Govs. Rick Perry and Chris Christie, Palin said, “It suggests that the field is not set. Thank goodness the field is not yet set. I think that there does need to be more vigorous debate. There needs to be a larger field. And there’s still time. There’s still months ahead, where more folks can jump in and start articulating their positions.”

He warned the Americans that the British were coming, the British were coming, and they were going to try take our arms and we got to make sure that we were protecting ourselves and shoring up all of ammunitions and our firearms so that they couldn’t take it… Part of his ride was to warn the British that we’re already there. That, hey, you’re not going to succeed. You’re not going to take American arms. You are not going to beat our own well- armed persons, individual, private militia that we have.” - Sarah Palin
