Palin RIPS Obama regarding His Petulant Presser

Like many of us, Sarah Palin seemed to be taken aback a bit by Obama's press conference today following Speaker Boehner's withdrawal from the debt ceiling negotiations. You know, the one where he summoned Congressional leaders to the White House tomorrow (Saturday 7/23) morning, and where he displayed more of his SUPERIOR TEMPERAMENT!; typical, nay classic, Obama- sanctimonious, disingenuous, demagogic, self-righteous, and arrogant...

From Sarah's Facebook Page:

This is the same president who proposed an absurdly irresponsible budget that would increase our debt by trillions of dollars, and whose party failed to even put forward a budget in over 800 days! This is the same president who is pushing our country to the brink because of his reckless spending on things like the nearly trillion dollar “stimulus” boondoggle. This is the same president who ignored his own debt commission’s recommendations and demonized the voices of fiscal sanity who proposed responsible plans to reform our entitlement programs and rein in our dangerous debt trajectory. This is the same president who wanted to push through an increase in the debt ceiling that didn’t include any cuts in government spending! This is the same president who wants to slam Americans with tax hikes to cover his reckless spending, but has threatened to veto a bill proposing a balanced budget amendment. This is the same president who hasn’t put forward a responsible plan himself, but has rejected reasonable proposals that would tackle our debt. This is the same president who still refuses to understand that the American electorate rejected his big government agenda last November. As I said in Madison, Wisconsin, at the Tax Day Tea Party rally, “We don’t want it. We can’t afford it. And we are unwilling to pay for it.”

Now the President is outraged because the GOP House leadership called his bluff and ended discussions with him because they deemed him an obstruction to any real solution to the debt crisis.

He has been deemed a lame duck president. And he is angry now because he is being treated as such.

His foreign policy strategy has been described as “leading from behind.” Well, that’s his domestic policy strategy as well. Why should he be surprised that he’s been left behind in the negotiations when he’s been leading from behind on this debt crisis?

Thank you, GOP House leaders. Please don’t get wobbly on us now.

2012 can’t come soon enough.

Which, I don't think I can, or should, add anything of substance here except for a hearty "Amen!"  But for your enjoyment, I'll throw in a link to Protein Wisdom; one where Darleen provides us video of  Charles Krauthammer's delicious take on the President's presser. It's worth a few minutes of your time.

What is your opinion, kind reader?
