Palin Blasts Obama on Egypt: ‘3 A.M.‘ Phone Call Went to ’Answering Machine’

WASHINGTON (AP) — Sarah Palin says the Obama administration must tell Americans what it knows about who will be Egypt’s next leader.
In a Christian Broadcasting Network interview released Saturday, the 2008 vice presidential candidate says the administration is withholding information on Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak’s likely successor.
The 82-year-old leader wants to rule until September elections.
Palin said in the Friday interview the U.S. must find out who is “behind all the turmoil” and that “we should not stand” for a government led by the Muslim Brotherhood.
Referencing a 2008 campaign ad, Palin said Egypt was the White House’s “3 a.m. phone call“ but it ”went right to the answering machine.”
She says the U.S. must say whom it stands with, “and we do not have all that information yet.”

Posted on February 6, 2011 at 12:14amIf anyone answers the phone in the Mubarack Hussein Obama White House it won‘t be America’s first dictator, it will be his mother in law, and you can just imagine what she must look like at 3:00 o’clock in the morning.

This person has an absolute obsession with Sarah Palin. He or She is beginning to sound a bit mentally disturbed. It’s just such hateful talk that the military fundraiser was cancelled, and that’s a shame.

I want Ron Paul to go into the phone booth and transform into Super Uncle Sam, then slay the12 headed hydra. Then he can return the golden fleece, our right to print and coin currency, to the rightful owners, the Congress, hopefully under Tea Party control. He can then proceed to decriminalize marijuana, and team up with Congress and Senate to abolish any regulations or laws not adhering to the US Constitution in regards to the 2nd Amendment.

Posted on February 6, 2011 at 1:14pmMy analogy is childish?
Well then, the entire scenario of answering the phone at 3AM would be just as childish. Therefor, I‘m simply sticking with the childishness of Sarah Palin’s personal attacks on Barack Obama.
A great deal of Americans don’t want her answering the phone either.
Whether or not you think the Federal Reserve is the issue or not is your opinion, and with all due respect to your personal attacks, you are not the moderator. Thank you.
It is what puts us in a position to even care about what’s going on in Egypt, considering the only real reason we care is because we’re afraid gas prices are going to go through the roof, we’re broke as a country thatnks to the Fed lending us into debt. If we could afford gas, and Obama wasn’t sabotaging our energy sector, then Texas wouldn’t have been about to buy Electricity from Mexico.
If we cared about what’s going on in Egypt in regards to Israel, then we wouldn’t have been allowing the Oil barons to rob us like Bush allowed, and Globalist Scum ElBaradei wouldn‘t have been telling the world Iran’s nuclear program is for peaceful purposes, Bush would‘ve noticed that when looking into Putey Pute’s eyes he was supplying Iran with centrifuges that can indeed be used to produce uranium that can be weaponized.
Now that sounds somewhat familiar…you Know, Bush was alos supplying NORTH KOREA with the same type of centrifuge technology, for “peaceful purposes”.
On his watch, North Korea detonated a nuke.

Posted on February 6, 2011 at 12:07amHonestly I do not have a clue what the US can do for Egypt. At this point and time we are so weaken, we need to go home limping and try to dress our wounds. Quite frankly, what is going to surface in Egypt is more than likely going to be VERY anti-American. We shouldn’t have been in bed with Mubarak in the first place. He was corrupt and of course now his countrymen are revolting against him. Because we supported him for years and years, their hatred of us is going to be strong.
What is also pulling their strings in the middle east is bad news bears for any American alliance with Egypt. Quite frankly, all news networks should be alerting the people of the United States that we have lost an ally. It’s time we get told the truth. Glenn Beck can only do so much, and other news programs need to grow the balls and tell us what is going on. However finding out what is going on only requires a little digging around on the internet. But most people are too busy covering their ears and eyes to know what is really going on.
The middle east is on fire. Right now all I can say is that I am glad Bush sent in our troops to take out Saddam. If Iraq wasn’t there, the middle east would be ten times as bad as it already is. All I can say, pray for Israel. For they are on staring another holocaust straight in the face. God save the Jews.

Sounds like she is a threat then. So I guess your attacks are prompted by your fear that she might have something going for her. Keep it up. She apparently is still a force to be reckoned with.

If the administration names ANY “likely” or “hoped for” successor, that statement alone would be ample ammunition for our adversaries in the raging war for public opinion in the affected countries.
To have any chance of being effective, any diplomacy at this point must be very-quiet diplomacy. Any public statements from the administratioin, other than bland “support for representative governence” would be either false or counter-productive.

Posted on February 5, 2011 at 11:32pmI couldn’t agree more Nick. Sarah will drive them nuts again with this one. I agree with her though. I can’t believe we are backing the Muslim Brotherhood on this situation. While I agree we can’t just sit this one out, the people in the streets are calling for war with Israel. They also say they hate the US because we are controlled by Iarael. This is not looking good at all.

I don’t either, and I’ll take it a step farther in saying that his surrounding advisors are not intelligent also. The handling of the Egyptian crisis was absent at best, almost like he was asked “Mr. president, what do we do??” and he replied, “Let’s go golfing”. It was INSANE that we heard NOT A WORD from the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES on this, and he allegedly is THE voice of the “free world”. My opinion is this activity is tresasonous, but it is not defined as such in the Constitution. Rather, call it “cowardousness” and “ineffectual leadership” and Impeach him in whatever way will work. Obama is the sadest and lowliest and most ill-prepared leader this country has ever seen, and he will end our existance if he is left to his own failbot leadership in this country’s future.

Posted on February 6, 2011 at 12:42amBlazers, who does Sarah Palin stand with? What is her opinion? It’s comfortable to be able to criticize the President and have zero responsibility for your words. At my job we have a policy: don’t criticize unless you have an alternative.
Sarah Palin – I’m addressing Sarah Palin directly as if she reads this website, which she doesn’t – tell us what you would do. For the rest of you, whose side are you on? The Republicans are split on that. Beck supports Mubarack and his prophesy is the end of the world if he’s overthrown. Too late though, Mubarack is toast. Personally I’m with the the crowd who wants democracy.
It’s easy to criticize. But looking out for our country’s best interest is a lot is harder, and that’s what the President is doing. The United States is intensely interested and actively engaged with the event in Egypt. If you think every American resource in the region isn’t talking to every person we have and pulling every lever, then you are a little naive.
In this kind of situation twittering every negotiation does not serve anybody’s interest, sorry Sarah. If you were Presidential material you understand why you‘re not copied on the ongoing negotiations and why they’re not broadcast to the world at every step.

Keeping your powder dry to my Grandfather meant to make sure you have what you need when the time comes for the needin’, if you know what i mean. Literally, when you need to fire your musket, if your powder isn’t dry, then your round is a useless lump of lead. Figuratively, if you live your life where your integrity is constantly in question, then when the time comes for you to face the fire, and you are in the clear, will you be called out because of the many times you cried “wolf”? In any case, i think he meant “Keep your integrity clear, and your integrity shall stand on its own merit” Keeping one’s powder dry means keeping your word as sacred as you keep your breath. I.E., the only way to survive is through breath, and the only way to breathe is through your personal integrity.

Posted on February 6, 2011 at 1:08amWhat a contrast…Look at the way Obama has handled this most recent crisis in Egypt and compare it to the Iranian crisis and how he handled that one.
The Iranians (in the millions) were protesting against a radical extremist regime. They were claiming fraud in the re-election of Ahmadinejad and they were calling on the United States for support. What did Obama do? He said, “We don’t want to intervene. We don’t want to interfere in Iran’s domestic politics”. He said we don’t want to be meddling in Iranian affairs. Now, fast forward in time to just 10 days ago in Egypt and you had 100’s of thousands of protesters in the street. They were calling for an end for a long-standing American ally, Hosni Mubarak. They were, if not led by, certainly supported by the Muslim Brotherhood. And what does Obama do? He jumps right in. He immediately says, “Oh yes, Mubarak has to respect the protestors. Oh yes, there has to be Democratic change”, and you saw this gradual ratcheting up of pressure over a period of days until, finally, Obama, just recently is now openly calling for Mubarak to step down and wants him to step down NOW. I think that there is, at lest on the surface, a dramatic difference in the way that Obama has responded to the 2009 Iranian protests and the way he has responded to the ones in Cairo. You might ask yourself if the difference in Obama is because he actually “learned” something between June 2009 and now? I don’t think so and I’ll tell you why…I think he is acting with the “same policy” then as he is doing now. In June 2009 did he step in to support the protesters on the street? No, he actually supported the radical extremist regime in Tehran. Because he stepped in to support the regime…the regime won. And ultimately those protests dissipated. There are also horror stories regarding the fate of many of those protesters. Now in January 2011 Obama stepped in again in favor of the radical Islamic organization, the Muslim Brotherhood. What you are seeing here is a continuity of policy. President Obama actually seems to prefer radical Islamic regimes to regimes that might favor the United States. He favors radical Islamic movements to a pro-people, pro-freedom, pro-American movement on the streets such as we saw in Iran! We know now that there were previous contacts between the White House and the Muslim Brotherhood prior to the current events in Egypt. Obama met with two senior members of the Muslim Brotherhood in the spring of 2009, just prior to the speech he gave in Cairo two weeks later in which he proclaimed “a new beginning” for the Muslim World in their relations with the United States. He also lifted a ban on the travel to the United States of Tariq Ramadan. This guy is a prominent Islamic scholar who just happens to be the grandson of the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood (look this guy up…you will see that he was previously banned from our country due to his nefarious involvements). F.Y.I. this contact with the Muslim Brotherhood is unprecedented in a United States Presidency. It has never occurred before Obama. Obama seemed to think that the Muslim Brotherhood is a legitimate partner for the United States. Just like he thought Iran was a legitimate partner for the United States! El Baradei is also someone that Obama has been cultivating since the beginning of his Presidency. Look this guy up…you will see that he was essentially running point for the Iranian regime in hiding Iran’s nuclear program. He was buying time for the Iranian nuclear development. El Baradei basically wants to be the front man for the Muslim Brotherhood in dealing with Mubarak and the United States. Is there no way to make this man accountable to We The People? Do we not have policies against this type of fraternization?

Never dare an Marine to teach about guns. It doens’t end well.
Funny story.
Report Post »The way the Marine Corpse holds their shooting ranges is to have targets on a “burm” which is a raised hill of earth, and Marines pulling targets manually on the other side of that burm. Now, we have a fresh target raised for the shooter to fire at, and our job behind the burm is to pull that targer down after every shot and mark on that target where the shooter hit. That way he can adjust his “dope’, the sighting apparatus on his rifle to gain a more accurate shot. One year, i was “pulling butts” and the shooter next to mine (on my target) was a female Navy Leuitenant shooting for her first time on a rifle range “just for fun”. She shot so well that I and the guy pulling butts with me were watching her target instead of our own. She shot in groupsn that defied imagination and her score was 3 off from being perfect, only because her rapid fire, although in a very tight 4 inch group, was off by 2 inches in her sighting which pulled her off from center mass. It was my best experience ever on the range, even surpassing the time a richochette hit me in my cammies one time.

When I bought my first gun, I showed it to my 12-year-old boy, and he asked me if I knew how to use it. I told him not yet, but I’d figure it out. He was simply to keep his hands off of it. Then he told me, “Mom, give me the gun before you shoot yourself in the foot! Let me show you.”
Bewildered, I handed him the gun and he took the clip out and showed me all about it and the chamber and safety. He told me to get a cleaning kit and keep it clean.
I asked him where he learned about guns!!! He replied proudly, “Mom, I’m a Junior Deputy. The Deputies came to the school and taught us about guns and what to do and what not to do. Now, don’t be pointing it at anybody unless you intend to kill him. And always consider any gun as being loaded. It‘s the ’empty’ ones that get people killed.” I told him still, not to be playing with it. It’s not a toy. “MOM!!!”
The younger son has never been around a gun as such. But, I think he will when I get through talking with him. I’m looking forward to going to the firing range with my friends and taking him with me.

Posted on February 6, 2011 at 6:36amI have a high regard for Sarah Palin and a somewhat lesser regard for your president (that said with the greatest respect as I am well aware that, while in office, he is two people), however it is time to take a cold look at this.
First, should it be necessary to become involved, rereading Sun Tzu’s “The Art Of War” would not do one any harm.
Second, the USA trained their military so unnecessary incursion or military adventurism would be foolhardy – to say the very best of it ( as if it isn’t always so).
Third, it is their country. I’m in some doubt as to how this will turn out, but at this point there is no moral or legal obligation to intervene. It has been suggested that Mubarak has stashed away as much as 70 billion. I think that this is unlikely (Newsmax), but, if he once was, he is not one of the good guys now.
Fourth, it will be better for the west, in terms of future relations, to wait until invited.
To those who say that Palin or Obama are stupid, you are indulging yourselves. Neither would get to their positions if they were not highly intelligent. Please do not confuse being right with intelligence, or being wrong with stupidity.
Palin’s VP run at the White House was possibly premature, but she is now a formidable force and steadily advancing in capability. President Obama was fairly frank during the campaign but most were not listening.
@MareeClaire I read your response and replied to it, but late. Your insults show an erudition and depth of cultural knowledge that is intriguing (I had to look a couple of them up).

Yet, all of a sudden, Obama “hears the voices” of the tens of thousands rallying in Egypt today and encourages a smooth “transition” to a new form of government with full knowledge that the Muslim Brotherhood has every intention of stepping in…
If this happens and the Muslim Brotherhood takes over Egypt, we can expect more trouble with the Suez Canal and trade… We can expect plenty of devastation here in America as a result of a blocked Suez Canal (no oil) and trade…
For all of Obama’s talk of “universal human rights” and “responding to the voices of the people,” where was he in the summer of 2009; and where is he today? Human rights are clearly at stake…

Posted on February 6, 2011 at 11:03amThis is why I find Ms. Palin so unremarkable. She never offers any actionable solutions. She trades on pure emotion. The Egyptian situation is highly complex. It’s one of our oldest civilizations, and one of our longest-standing allies. The history and relationships are incredibly important, and fragile, where balance in the Middle East is concerned. We stand with those who yearn for freedom and opportunity. We stand with our geo political allies in the region. When those two interests conflict, we get what we see today. It is not our job to be the parent of the Egyptian people. I believe President Obama’s response has been wholly appropriate – learn more about the situation, assess the social and political implication and needs, determine a course of support and action that is in the best interests of the Egyptian people – as defined by the Egyptian people – so long as it doesn’t conflict with the best interests of the United States. Ms. Palin, with all due respect, chooses instead to repeat her penchance for petty asides. I wish should would rise to her potential, rather than stoop to scoop the lowest common denominators among us.

Posted on February 6, 2011 at 1:19pmI read the transcript and here is what I got. Sarah Palin think President Obama should be telling the world – tweeting it maybe – so “we’ll know who to support.” That simply shows her naivte. Government involved at times like this is not to announce a play be play like a football game.
She also used the cute reference to the answering machine taking the call, but it didn’t connect to her other comments. She apparantly wasn’t accussing him of being univolved; she’s just saying Obama should be keeping her in the loop on whatever the US is doing or thinking. Sorry Sarah.
She talks a lot about Reagan, but she seems to forget that Reagan secretly sold weapons to Islamic extremests in Iran – not one of his smarter moves.
And she seems to have the idea that the US gets to decide who runs Egypts next governement. We have some influence to be sure and the leverage of the foreign aid we supply (that’s often the point of foreign aid – money talks). But she seems a little confused about the limits of US power.
Here’s what Dick Cheney said yesterday (I’m hardly a Cheney fan but unlike Sarah, he at least understands the mechanics of foreign policy): “There is a reason why a lot of diplomacy is conducted in secret. There are good reasons for there to be confidentiality in some of those communications. And I think President Mubarak needs to be treated as he deserved over the years, because he has been a good friend,” Cheney said at an event commemorating the centennial of President Ronald Reagan’s birth.
Cheney noted it can be difficult for some foreign leaders to act on U.S. advice “in a visible way” without appearing compromised in their own countries.
“The bottom line is, in the end, whatever comes next in Egypt is going to be determined by the people of Egypt,” Cheney added.

Posted on February 6, 2011 at 2:41pmI hope we can all agree that Palin is really the only option to run in 2012, if you’re into conservatives with a vision.
I’m tired of people dismissing her because polls negatively. Who freakin’ cares? If we put a typical weak-kneed RINO in the run like McCain, not only do we lose another 4 years, but we lose the battle of ideas because sooner or later, Palin’s ideas are going to win out – be it 2012 or 2016. Another 4 years of Obama – while extremely detrimental to our future – will really wake America’s fence-walkers up that progressive and liberals are incapable of reasonable governance.
It has to be Palin.

Posted on February 6, 2011 at 8:57pmThe Arab revolution and Western decline (http://www.haaretz.com/)
Two huge processes are happening right before our eyes. One is the Arab liberation revolution. After half a century during which tyrants have ruled the Arab world, their control is weakening. After 40 years of decaying stability, the rot is eating into the stability. The Arab masses will no longer accept what they used to accept. The Arab elites will no longer remain silent.
Processes that have been roiling beneath the surface for about a decade are suddenly bursting out in an intifada of freedom. Modernization, globalization, telecommunications and Islamization have created a critical mass that cannot be stopped. The example of democratic Iraq is awakening others, and Al Jazeera’s subversive broadcasts are fanning the flames. And so the Tunisian bastille fell, the Cairo bastille is falling and other Arab bastilles will fall.
The scenes are similar to the Palestinian intifada of 1987, but the collapse recalls the Soviet collapse in Eastern Europe of 1989. No one knows where the intifada will lead. No one knows whether it will bring democracy, theocracy or a new kind of democracy. But things will never again be the same.
The old order in the Middle East is crumbling. Just as the officers’ revolution in the 1950s brought down the Arab monarchism that had relied on the colonial powers, the 2011 revolution in the square is bringing down the Arab tyrants who were dependent on the United States.
The second process is the acceleration of the decline of the West. For some 60 years the West gave the world imperfect but stable order. It built a kind of post-imperial empire that promised relative quiet and maximum peace. The rise of China, India, Brazil and Russia, like the economic crisis in the United States, has made it clear that the empire is beginning to fade.
And yet, the West has maintained a sort of international hegemony. Just as no replacement has been found for the dollar, none has been found for North Atlantic leadership. But Western countries’ poor handling of the Middle East proves they are no longer leaders. Right before our eyes the superpowers are turning into palaver powers.
There are no excuses for the contradictions. How can it be that Bush’s America understood the problem of repression in the Arab world, but Obama’s America ignored it until last week? How can it be that in May 2009, Hosni Mubarak was an esteemed president whom Barack Obama respected, and in January 2011, Mubarak is a dictator whom even Obama is casting aside? How can it be that in June 2009, Obama didn’t support the masses who came out against the zealot Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, while now he stands by the masses who are coming out against the moderate Mubarak?
There is one answer: The West’s position is not a moral one that reflects a real commitment to human rights. The West‘s position reflects the adoption of Jimmy Carter’s worldview: kowtowing to benighted, strong tyrants while abandoning moderate, weak ones.
Carter’s betrayal of the Shah brought us the ayatollahs, and will soon bring us ayatollahs with nuclear arms. The consequences of the West’s betrayal of Mubarak will be no less severe. It’s not only a betrayal of a leader who was loyal to the West, served stability and encouraged moderation. It’s a betrayal of every ally of the West in the Middle East and the developing world. The message is sharp and clear: The West’s word is no word at all; an alliance with the West is not an alliance. The West has lost it. The West has stopped being a leading and stabilizing force around the world.
The Arab liberation revolution will fundamentally change the Middle East. The acceleration of the West’s decline will change the world. One outcome will be a surge toward China, Russia and regional powers like Brazil, Turkey and Iran. Another will be a series of international flare-ups stemming from the West’s lost deterrence. But the overall outcome will be the collapse of North Atlantic political hegemony not in decades, but in years. When the United States and Europe bury Mubarak now, they are also burying the powers they once were. In Cairo’s Tahrir Square, the age of Western hegemony is fading away.

Posted on February 6, 2011 at 9:56pmSarah Palin – the quitter from twitter?
The one who can’t explain the Bush Doctrine?
The one who thinks “refudiate” is a word?
The one who didn’t know the term “blood libel” is offensive to Jews?
The one who encouraged Dr. Laura when she used the the N-word?

Posted on February 6, 2011 at 10:36pmObama is a secret member of the muslim brotherhood.. all this talk about his “christian faith” is B.S.
Report Post »Look muslims are told to lie to acheive what they want its in their damn Koran. People I know you all want to believe the best in others but this attitude has cost americans lives. We are mis judging the intentions of the muslims. As long as there are muslims to be manipulated to blow things up.. (dont use that idot mcvey as and excuse either) Muslims are much more responsible for using horrendous methods to acheive their goals. Oh and Mcvey was probably working with extremist muslims .. who knows.. Grow up America or all our kids are going to suffer…nothing is as it seems with our govt anymore. Only you and I can change that either at the ballot box (which i believe they are messing with) or with our pitch forks. Why do you think they want to ban guns? To prevent us from challenging their elitest power grabs… think folks… wake up.. I love you my fellow americans.

Posted on February 7, 2011 at 1:24pmObama and his ads… what a joke. The black people bought it though and voted this idiot in. But we know better now. Hey white folks don’t be bamboozled next time he tries to run. Boot this Kenyan out of the White House and help bring back America to respectability.
