Jan Brewer Discusses Confrontation With Obama

Arizona Governor Janice Brewer discussed her confrontation with President Obama at the airport today with KFYI radio. Brewer claims Obama was upset with her description of their 2010 meeting at the White House in her book Scorpions for Breakfast. Brewer says she went to greet Obama with good intentions, but the discussion soon escalated into a heat argument over the content of the book. Brewer says Obama eventually walked away from her mid-sentence. posted

  • “President Obama didn’t exactly walk away from Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer (R) during their disagreement on Wednesday on an airport tarmac near Phoenix, said one of the only people to witness the exchange up close. The president simply began talking to the other two elected officials who were there to greet him.

    Mayor Scott Smith of Mesa, Ariz., declined to say exactly what he heard Obama and Brewer talk about during their now-infamous tiff next to Air Force One.

    But the mayor said he was standing right next to the governor when the exchange took place and Obama didn’t seem to be in any kind of hurry to leave.

    “There was no sense that he was running to or from anything,” Smith told TPM. In fact, he said, the president stayed and had a pleasant conversation with Smith, who’s a Republican, and Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton, a Democrat.

    It was “just the four of us,” Smith said. “Mayor Stanton and I had a decent talk with him.”

  • Sounds like an obnoxious woman. A gentleman walks away from a conversation with a crazy person who won't listen to his side of the argument. A conservative will instead get shrill and start attacking the other person in personal ways. Fact.

  • What ever happened to “NO MATTER WHAT YOU RESPECT THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT AND THOSE IN IT.”? I guess that goes away when we have a democrat president? Or maybe just when we have a 'uppity' black man as President. She should be ashamed. Regardless of party or politics she is charged with being Obama's ally while he visits. She should issue an apology.

  • Jan Brewer, the reason I don't like living in Arizona…that and Sheriff Joe. She has represented Arizona poorly today and will as long as she is in office.
