GOV. BREWER PUTS ON A MINI-CLINIC

After she graduated, they canceled the GOP class in "Effective Communications," apparently.

Just watched Az. Gov. Jan Brewer on MTP--whatta refreshing lady. My fellow Repubs, here is the handbook, Gov. Brewer read it, why doesn't anyone else?!:

1) Made dramatic personal endorsement for the Az. primary, big smile, optimistic, said not one word about the ones she didn't endorse.

2) Made a few simple, REPEATED, clear points about how Obama is obtusely helping to destroy her state.

3) NAILED Cal. Gov. Jerry Brown when he had the gall to utter the phrase "guns are going from the US to Mexico," WRAPPED FAST & FURIOUS AROUND OBAMA'S NECK.

4) Politely but firmly NAILED that hatchet-faced hack David Gregory when he tried to change the subject on her, to help Brown and hurt her.

5) Closed emphasizing how happy she is with the candidate she endorsed (oh, it was Mitt), and how "we are going to work as hard as we can so he can win this week." [Are you listening, Newt? That is ALWAYS the right answer when someone asks you if you are going to win. Got it? ALWAYSALWAYSALWAYS!!!]

Let's review:

She stayed on message.

She projected a positive, cheerful character and demeanor.

She exploited an error by her opponent.

She didn't step on her dick.

She stayed on message.

She smelled out the slimy media trick, called him on it, and avoided it.

And did I mention that she stayed on message?

The whole thing was about 6 minutes, just beautiful, a clinic in GOP communications. And it's not rocket science...Is it?

If Newt had been able to do this, he'd have wrapped it up already. Or Santorum or Romney, too, for that matter.

Thank you, Gov. Brewer. I think I love you!

OBAMA TREASON WATCH, I.

[wherein we catalogue a perforce incomplete list of the various atrocities committed by President Barack Hussein Obama and his agents, which atrocities would never be committed unless he was an America-hating traitor to the core]:

1) Obama refuses to allow a Knesset member from Israel, Michael Ben Ari, a visitor's visa to the US because he considers da Jooooooo a "terrorist."

The Odyssey by Homer, Chapter 21:

For long Odysseus stood with the bow in his hands, handling it as a minstrel handles a lyre when he stretches a cord or tightens a peg. Then he bent the great bow; he bent it without an effort, and at his touch the bow-string made a sound that was like the cry of a swallow. The wooers seeing him bend that mighty bow felt, every man of them, a sharp pain at the heart. They saw Odysseus take up an arrow and fit it to the string. He held the notch, and he drew the string, and he shot the bronze-weighted arrow straight through the holes in the back of the axe-heads. Then as Eumæus took up the axes, and brought them outside, he said, ‘Thou seest, lord Telemachus, that thy guest does not shame thee through foolish boasting. I have bent the bow of Odysseus, and I have shot the arrow aright. But now it is time to provide the feast for the lords who woo thy lady mother. While it is yet light, the feast must be served to them, and with the feast they must have music and the dance.’ Saying this he nodded to Telemachus, bending his terrible brows. Telemachus instantly girt his sword upon him and took his spear in his hand. Outside was heard the thunder of Zeus. And now Odysseus had stripped his rags from him and was standing upright, looking a master of men. The mighty bow was in his hands, and at his feet were scattered many bronze-weighted arrows.
