This is Fred Thompson at his best. In this clip from his appearance with John McCain on “Meet the Press” today, Thompson sums up what many conservatives see as the showdown between Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich. Thompson said Republicans need to nominate someone who can go toe-to-toe with Barack Obama on the issues and articulate the “philosophical underpinnings” of the positions. He said we “don’t need a bean-counter” – even if he’s been a successful one. Instead, Thompson argued we need a President with big solutions who will “shake things up” in Washington.
Fred got off a good line about Obama’s trumpeting a reduction in the amount of foreign oil being imported, which he quickly and accurately explained was because of Obama’s horrific economy – people just have not been driving as much. “That’s like congratulating a sick person for losing weight!”
Here is video from “Morning Joe” of them discussing a “tense” exchange on the tarmack in Arizona between Gov. Jan Brewer and President Obama. The clip includes video of Brewer talking with reporters last night about her exchange with Obama. Brewer said she was at the airport to welcome Obama to her state, but he wanted to “talk about her book,” which he took issue with, apparently. Brewer said she thought Obama was “pretty thin-skinned.”
Par for the course with this President. For Obama, it’s always all about himself.
Here is a local news report from Arizona on a heated exchange between President Obama and Republican Gov. Jan Brewer. Gov. Brewer reportedly tried to give Obama a letter and invited him to tour the border. Media got a still shot of the two looking tense and Brewer pointing at Obama. President Obama is said to be steamed at Brewer over the way she has characterized a meeting between them last year.
Here is video of Sen. Rick Santorum, who has moved up to third in Iowa in a recent CNN Poll, talking to Wolf Blitzer about Ron Paul’s Foreign Policy. Santorum said there are a host of things Paul could do his first day in office with Executive Orders that really concern him. Yet, Santorum said he would “absolutely” vote for Ron Paul over Barack Obama if Paul was the nominee, even though he would “have to take a lot of antacids” to do it.
Santorum said he believes Obama in a second term would be very much like Ron Paul on Foreign Policy.
Here is video of President Obama yesterday posing for a photo with a Marine family in Hawaii. As they were posing, an 8-month old baby reached up and grabbed Obama in the mouth! Obama took it all in stride very nicely.
Here is audio of Dick Morris on the Laura Ingraham Show (with a guest host) where he said emphatically about the rise of Ron Paul that “there is absolutely no way on earth Ron Paul can defeat Barack Obama” if he were to get the GOP Nomination.
In fact, Morris went on to say that with Paul as the GOP Nominee, Obama would win “at least 40 states. . . . So anybody that votes for Ron Paul, peel off the Paul sticker and put O-B-A-M-A on your vote because that’s who you’re voting for.”
A great pair of videos via Gateway Pundit illustrating the utter shamelessness of Barack Obama in not telling the truth. The first video shows his latest line to not take responsibility for the disastrous Obama Economy. He tells 60 Minutes he “always believed” it would take “longer than one term” to turn the U.S. Economy around. But the second video shows him on February 1, 2009 saying “if I don’t have this DONE in three years, then there is going to be a one-term proposition.”
