Corrupt Government Title: Barry breaks shitty on AZ Gov Brewer @ Phoenix Airport Obama, Arizona governor in confrontation at Phoenix airportLast Updated: 7:44 PM, January 25, 2012 AP According to reporters at the scene, Brewer could be seen pointing her finger at the president during their brief exchange, before Obama walked away.
Brewer later told reporters the president had been upset about a passage in her recent book in which she described a meeting between the two at the White House. "He was a little disturbed about my book, 'Scorpions for Breakfast,'" said Brewer, who was there to welcome Obama to Arizona. Asked which passage of the book he had taken issue with, Brewer suggested Obama felt he had not been portrayed cordially in one of the excerpts. "I said I was sorry he felt that way but I didn't get my sentence finished," she said. "Anyway, we're glad he's here. I'll regroup." Obama was in Arizona as part of a three-day, five-state tour to push his economic agenda first outlined in Tuesday night's State of the Union address. A White House official later released a statement describing its version of events. "The governor handed the President a letter and said she was inviting him to meet with her," it said. "The President said he'd be glad to meet with her again, but did note that after their last meeting, a cordial discussion in the Oval Office, the governor inaccurately described the meeting in her book."

Update from Drudge: OBAMA HAS HEATED ARGUMENT WITH AZ GOV 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." On the letter, she said it was personal letter asking him to sit down with her to discuss the "Arizona comeback." She said she "reiterated an invitation that I've extended to him before with regards to coming to arizona and going to the border with me." She said she would take him to lunch. "We've had a remarkable comeback here and I want to share that with him." She said the president brought up the book. "I thought we probably would've talked about the things that were important to him and important to me, helping one another. Our country is upside down. Arizona was upside down. But we have turned it around. I know again that he loves this country and I love this country." It was clear from the moment they greeted one another that this would not be a run-of-the-mill encounter between the president and a local official. At one point, she was pointing her finger at him and at another, they were talking at the same time, seemingly over each other. He appeared to walk away from her while they were still talking, and she confirmed that by saying she didn't finish her sentence. When Brewer spoke with your pooler, the AP and an NBC producer for several minutes afterwards, she appeared a bit flustered and taken aback by the conversation. Asked if she was, that's when Brewer said, "I'll regroup." Developing...
#3. To: Happy Quanzaa (#2) IF it was up to AZ, Obama would still be a slave. AZ needs a new Guv now. This one's ineffectual....LMFA O
#4. To: mcgowanjm (#3) Barry's black half is from Kenya, Dear Leader has no slave blood. The only slaves in U.S. now are the taxpayers that involuntarily fund the statist tyrants.
#5. To: Happy Quanzaa (#4) Barry's black half is from Kenya Amazing. So you can get into geneology? Too bad the slaves, the jews brought over were more sturdy than the Natives that the christians killed off, eh? Now what do we do? LMFAO
#22. To: mcgowanjm (#5) Too bad the slaves, the jews brought over were more sturdy than the Natives that the christians killed off, eh? That wasn't it. Indians will fight even if horribly outnumbered and for the most part refused to be enslaved.. Africans seemed comfortable with their slavery and only fight when they horribly outnumber their foe. Sometime not even then. That's why so many American blacks run around with such huge chips on their shoulder. The slaves weren't sturdier,they just followed the massas orders.
#25. To: sneakypete (#22) Africans seemed comfortable with their slavery and only fight when they horribly outnumber their foe. There were around 200 slave rebellions in the US in addition to individual slaves who escaped their masters in the hope of making it to freedom.
#35. To: lucysmom (#25) There were around 200 slave rebellions in the US... A slave rebellion can consist of ONE slave rebelling. And might I point out the slaves had the free man vastly outnumbered?
#37. To: sneakypete (#35) And might I point out the slaves had the free man vastly outnumbered? I bet all them freedom-loving, slave-owning, planters were well armed themselves while denying slaves the same right.
#38. To: lucysmom (#37) I bet all them freedom-loving, slave-owning, planters were well armed themselves while denying slaves the same right. I'm no expert on this like you and the others seem to think you are,but I doubt it. Oh,they were armed alright. Almost everybody was armed back then. Including some of the slaves. You DO know they only had single shot rifles that took a minute or two to even reload,right> BTW,did you know the VERY first slave in the English-speaking world was enslaved by his black master?
#39. To: sneakypete (#38) BTW,did you know the VERY first slave in the English-speaking world was enslaved by his black master? So what?
#40. To: lucysmom (#39) BTW,did you know the VERY first slave in the English-speaking world was enslaved by his black master? Just wanting to see you get down on the bruthas for creating slavery and making it hard for poor white people to earn a living prior to 1865.
#42. To: sneakypete (#40) Just wanting to see you get down on the bruthas for creating slavery and making it hard for poor white people to earn a living prior to 1865. Creating slavery? One American slave rebellion was inspired by the Biblical story of the Israelites escape from Egyptian bondage.
#43. To: lucysmom (#42) Just wanting to see you get down on the bruthas for creating slavery and making it hard for poor white people to earn a living prior to 1865. Creating slavery? Say what? Does your Dogma have you chased up a tree again,Lucy. It was BLACKS that created slavery enslaving their fellow blacks. You just wrote "So what?" to that a little earlier. Whites were just Johnny Come Lately's.
#48. To: sneakypete (#43) It was BLACKS that created slavery enslaving their fellow blacks. You just wrote "So what?" to that a little earlier. The first slaves in America were Caribbean indians.
#63. To: mininggold (#48) The first slaves in America were Caribbean indians. Wrong. They weren't in America. They were in the Carribbean. That's why they were called "Caribe" Indians. They also were never in the English Speaking New World (it wasn't America yet,either),which I specified. They were in territory controlled by Spain
#66. To: sneakypete (#63) Wrong. They weren't in America. They were in the Carribbean. North America, the planet’s 3rd largest continent, includes (23) countries and dozens of possessions and territories. It contains all Caribbean and Central America countries, Canada, Mexico, the United States of America, as well as Greenland - the world’s largest island.

#71. To: lucysmom (#66)
WOW! Yew have wunna dose 16 Century Editions of the Wrold Atlas? Betcha THAT bad boy is rare! And since when are all those modern day countries called "America"?
#75. To: sneakypete (#71) And since when are all those modern day countries called "America"? All them countries are not called America, they are located on one of the American continents.
#77. To: lucysmom (#75) And since when are all those modern day countries called "America"? Do tell? Cuba is located on an American Continent? The Carribbean Islands are located on an American continent? What hahhepend? Did a big storm come along and wash them ashore?
#78. To: sneakypete, lucysmom (#77) "All them countries are not called America, they are located on one of the American continents." Even with all the super glue you used this time, it still won't stick...lmao..
#80. To: Murron (#78) (Edited) "Do tell? Cuba is located on an American Continent? The Carribbean Islands are located on an American continent? What hahhepend? Did a big storm come along and wash them ashore?" You probably think England isn't part of Europe and Japan isn't in Asia too...either...also.
#83. To: lucysmom (#80) You probably think England isn't part of Europe and Japan isn't in Asia too...either...also. Do YOU think England is a part of Contentential Europe? Or that Japan and her sattelitte islands are a part of the Asian landmass? I can't wait to hear your report after going to Asia that you told the Japanese and the Chinese how much they were alike.
#86. To: sneakypete (#83) I can't wait to hear your report after going to Asia that you told the Japanese and the Chinese how much they were alike. Can you tell the difference between a land mass and a human being?
#89. To: lucysmom (#86) Can you tell the difference between a land mass and a human being? Can you? YOU were the ones claiming Caribe Indians were a land mass.
#93. To: sneakypete (#89) YOU were the ones claiming Caribe Indians were a land mass. Really? I said the Caribe Indians were America? (Have you been drinking a lot lately? We don't often agree, but you are usually more rational than this.)
#94. To: lucysmom (#93) (Edited) Really? I said the Caribe Indians were America? This is from the same poster who insists that the CSA didn't favor the institution of slavery, or some such hogwash. Whenver a thread is about slavery or Palin here he is spinning away. He must be very proud to be extending the Nixon legacy.
#95. To: mininggold, sneakypete (#94) Whenver a thread is about slavery or Palin here he is spinning away. He must be very proud to be extending the Nixon legacy. Does he have southern slave owning ancestors?
#97. To: lucysmom (#95) Does he have southern slave owning ancestors? I don't know. Some people think because they had some personal family involvement it automatically makes them experts. Funny thing is I just found out one of my GGFs fought for the Confederate side. From all accounts he would never personally admit it though.
