Since Many Moons, your correspondent has not seen a political photo as entertaining and memorable as this one. Feisty Arizona Governor Jan Brewer (R) greets President Obama at the Gateway airport yesterday in Phoenix-Mesa. Can you provide an amusing or insightful caption for their heart-to-heart? Here’s mine …. HIM: “We just can’t see Eye to Eye.” — HER: “Maybe we could if you were to Open yours!”
…WHAT LED UP TO THE PICTURED MOMENT
In her new book, titled “Scorpions for Breakfast,” Governor Brewer gives a behind-the-scenes account of her famous 2010 Oval Office visit, brought about by Arizona’s get-tough immigration policies. Brewer says her cell phone and camera were confiscated before the meeting by Secret Service agents (ditto for her aides). Adding insult to injury, she adds, the “meeting” consisted of the President lecturing her with a professorial tone.
So it was PAYBACK TIME IN THE DESERT yesterday on her home turf, and so far she is getting All the Best of it in the resulting media storm, for her radio interviews afterwards, and especially for the finger-pointing gesture.
Yahoo and ABC have excellent coverage here.

You better fire that Marxist AG Comrade Holder or I’ll put this finger in a spot that even Michele Antoinette hasn’t been.
You’re wrong again, Tom Brady is better than Peyton and Eli put together.

Gov. Brewer to Obama: “Welcome to Arizona Mr. President, would you like to join me for a trip to the Border?” — Obama to Gov. Brewer: “Who are you?”

Mr. President, you should make Sdrostra as part of your daily reading. I do and it has changed my life!!!

Thor, by accidentally adding an extra character to edit the word “ass” in my caption, you have inadvertently made it MUCH dirtier! 🙂
Thor never errs. It was I, T&A. I mean, TA.
What is that dear on your finger? Looks kind of like peanut butter with chocolate. That must have been a good cookie you ate. No wonder your face is all screwed up.
